Fifth Season agrees to partnership with Hulu
Fifth Season has finalized a multi-title agreement with Hulu in the U.S. covering a mix of scripted and unscripted content. The deal includes several exciting programs like Roughcut TV’s comedy series “Big Boys,” which was created, written, and narrated by Jack Rooke. Additionally, Lightbox’s true crime docuseries “Bad Host: Hunting the Couchsurfing Predator,” based on the popular podcast ‘Verified,’ will be part of the offering. Fans can also look forward to a reality show called “Hot Yachts,” which is set in the world of Miami’s elite super yachts.
For fans of the sitcom “Run the Burbs,” there’s good news as the third season, created by star Andrew Phung and Scott Townend, will be launching on Hulu this month. This new installment joins the first two seasons already available on the platform.
Travis Webb, SVP, Americas Distribution at Fifth Season, expressed his excitement about this collaboration by saying, “As one of the leading U.S. streaming services known for curating some of the best international series and films from around the world — we knew Hulu would be the ideal home for these titles. From the hilarious and heartwarming comedy of ‘Big Boys’ to the shocking and powerful true crime documentary of ‘Bad Host: Hunting the Couchsurfing Predator’ — this deal offers something for every Hulu subscriber to enjoy. We can’t wait to see the titles make their U.S. debut.”
