‘Schitt’s Creek’ is leaving Netflix later this year. Where can you stream it?
“Schitt’s Creek” is set to leave Netflix this year, but fans of the Rose family still will be able to stream the popular show.
Hulu announced on Thursday, April 28, it will be the new home for “Schitt’s Creek” beginning on Oct. 3.
“Based on the number of ‘Schitt’s Creek’ GIFs we Slack every day, it’s no surprise that we are absolutely thrilled to welcome Johnny, Moira, Alexis, ‘Daviiid’ and the wonderfully unique residents of Schitt’s Creek to Hulu,” Joe Earley, president of Hulu, said in a statement. “We can’t wait to share the award-winning, blisteringly-funny, yet heartwarming series and characters with our subscribers. We know they’ll fit in nicely.”
The Canadian series rose in popularity in recent years — culminating in a triumphant moment at the 2020 Primetime Emmy Awards, when it swept the comedy categories, including Outstanding Comedy Series
Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara took home awards for Best Lead Actor in a Comedy and Best Lead Actress in a Comedy, respectively. Daniel Levy and Annie Murphy won the Supporting Actor and Actress awards.
In 2021, it was the No. 8 most streamed acquired show for all streaming services., according to Deadline.
“’Schitt’s Creek’ centers on an outrageously wealthy video store magnate, Johnny Rose (Eugene Levy); his former soap-star wife Moira (Catherine O’Hara); and their two adult children – the self-described black sheep of the family David (Daniel Levy) and career socialite Alexis (Annie Murphy). When the family suddenly find themselves broke, they have no choice but to move to Schitt’s Creek, a small-town Johnny once bought as a joke,” Hulu said in a news release. “Forced to live out of a motel, with their pampered lives a memory, they struggle to find jobs and relationships and, most importantly, figure out what it means to be a family in the lovable town they’ve reluctantly come to call home.”
The departure of “Schitt’s Creek” from Netflix comes after the streaming service announced in its quarterly earnings report this month that it lost subscriptions for the first time in a decade.
