When the Hulu deal was first reported in 2015, it was estimated the streamer was paying roughly $875,000 per episode for the series, or $160 million annually.

What’s the deal with streaming? Why is it even called streaming? There’s no boats; no flotation devices. Hell, there isn’t even a stream.

Didn't Jerry and LD sell their rights to the series to Sony for like a billion dollars years ago.
I'm sure they may have retained a certain percentage, but I think Sony is the one who will benefit the most from the deal.

As good as Seinfeld is, is this Netflix making up for losing The Office?
