MST3K Season 11 on Amazon Prime

[zombiewhacker]

In the Rifftrax subforum we have an ongoing thread about Rifftrax titles available for streaming on Amazon Prime, many for free.

Out of curiosity, I decided to search for MST3K Season 11 on Prime, and sure enough, many episodes are available for streaming, though none currently for free. You can rent individual eps for $3.99 or buy for $9.99.

So if you don't feel like buying the whole set but wouldn't mind owning Cry Wilderness for under ten bucks, that's now being offered. Other currently available for rent:

The Loves of Hercules
Wizards of the Lost Kingdom
Reptilicus
The Beast of Hollow Mountain
The Land That Time Forgot
Carnival Magic
The Time Travelers
The Christmas That Almost Wasn't
At the Earth's Core
Starcrash
Avalanche
Yongary

If you have trouble pulling up a title (Prime's search function is only so-so) try parameters mst3k 2018. That seems to pull up all of them.

So I guess the exclusivity clause with Netflix expired.

They’ve been able to sell season on Rifftrax for about two years now, so I would guess the exclusivity for selling them elsewhere is pretty open.

Rifftrax also has season 12, so I'm not entirely certain what the Netflix contract entailed, but they've certainly been selling outside of it.

It's hardly the only show on Netflix that makes itself available on other platforms. Shows like Daredevil, Lost in Space, Orange is the New Black, and House of Cards are all for sale on Vudu, for example. It's shows that Netflix made themselves that stay mostly exclusive to the service, such as Stranger Things and Black Mirror.

I think it did a while back. Probably a month or more ago I noticed that I could watch 1101 on IFC on demand on YouTube TV.

I confess I'd like to know how that clause went. I'm sure it *must* have existed, but I'm also certain the possibility of going to other platforms was assured (otherwise, the commercial breaks would've been a *really* weird leftover from the previous era formats.)
