Bad news for Friends fans

It's finally happening, Friends is being removed from Netflix.

Despite hearing in December that everyone's favourite sitcom was 'going nowhere' today we got different news.

Friends will be moving to a new WarnerMedia streaming service.

Netflix originally acquired the rights to the show in 2015, paying $118 million.

The company renewed this contract in December for a further $100 million.

However, Warner will now move Friends to their new site and lots more shows could be moving with it.

Speaking at the Television Critics Association Kevin Reilly, head of content for the Warner service said, 'Expect that the crown jewels of Warner will ultimately end up on the service.'

Other TV shows that could move away from Netflix

Warner own the rights to lots of our favourite TV shows.

Kevin Reilly has previously expressed hopes to move Riverdale and Arrow to the new streaming site.

Other  Warner shows include The Big Bang Theory, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Gossip Girl, The OC, One Tree Hill and Gilmore Girls.

Unfortunately for Netflix, Warner aren't the only global company they'll have to compete it this year.

Disney's streaming service Disney+ is also on the way in 2019.

We can expect to see Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars content live there once it goes live.
