#Most Dangerous Game, Reno 911!, The Fugitive: Roku TV May Buy Quibi Shows

Quibi is coming to an end soon, and its content may vanish with it. However, someone might swoop in and take all that content, which includes shows like Most Dangerous Game, Reno 911!, and The Fugitive.

According to The New York Times, Roku and Quibi are working on a deal that will put the 100 shows airing on Quibi to Roku TV. The deal is still in process, and not much is known about it at this point. Word of the deal comes from someone close to the negotiations that could not say more publicly.

However, there are issues complicating a possible deal, and that complication is how Quibi signed its deals with creators for its programming. The following was revealed:

“Mr. Katzenberg and Ms. Whitman didn’t pursue ownership of the platform’s content, instead buying exclusive rights from creators to stream their shows for seven years. The arrangement was attractive to producers, who retained the right to later resell the shows to another service, such as Netflix. It is unclear how a sale would affect the rights of content producers.”

An end date for Quibi has not yet been set.

What do you think? Do you want to see the TV shows from Quibi land on another service? Would you watch the shows on Roku TV?
