As we all know, streaming is becoming a lot more popular than cable television. It allowed the creators to have creative freedom, people can check out shows anytime they want without worry about scheduling, and streaming was much more cheaper than a standard cable package.
However, here's something that I'd noticed for the past year or two. There are some streaming shows that aired on cable television as of late.
Here are some examples: Bojack Horseman, a Netflix animated series, came out on Comedy Central. Tuca and Bertie, another Netflix animated series, will be premiering on Adult Swim for it's 2nd season. Universal Kids Channel reran some Netflix animated series that were produced by DreamWorks Animation on the channel. Lastly, Kamp Koral, a Spongebob prequel spinoff, premiered on Paramount Plus, is going to be premiering on Nickelodeon later this year.
Granted, there are some shows that got handled the other way around like Close Enough was originally going to be a TBS series, but got moved to HBO Max a couple of years later. Infinity Train was originally gonna be a HBO Max series from the very beginning, but HBO Max itself got delayed, and Infinity Train was moved to Cartoon Network for a bit until HBO Max's official release. Heck, Summer Camp Island got moved to HBO Max with it's third season (I think) after it's initial run on Cartoon Network.
Yeah, I do noticed a bit of a trend lately that not a of lot of people talk about. Honestly, I find that very interesting.
With the recent news of 101 Dalmatian Street, an international Disney Channel series and a Disney Plus series, will be premiering on Disney XD in America this month, that got me wondering: could streaming series being aired on cable television being a good thing, bad thing, or a neutral thing?
Some people might consider it a good thing because it'll help streaming series get more exposure on cable TV since not a lot people can't afford streaming services and relying on cable. On the other hand, there are some people out there might consider a bad thing since some series doesn't really fit for cable TV, dealing with standard and practices mandates, ratings and demographics, and streaming series will always get attention through social media anyway. Or there are some people who are neutral with it.
With me, I'm more neutral with it. It really just depends on quality of the show itself, the networks handling it, and the availability of it on cable as well. If the networks take care of them properly, maybe we could see more streaming shows on cable in the future.
What do you guys think of this? Yes? No? Maybe so? Let me know!
