Netflix Adds 3 Mythical Shows From Sep. 7, Streaming Good Mythical Morning Day-and-Date

2 articles · Updated · Hollywood Reporter · Jul 14

Summary

  • Sep. 7 will bring Good Mythical Morning, Mythical Kitchen and Last Meals to Netflix under a broad Mythical Entertainment deal, with GMM premiering each new episode on Netflix the same day it hits YouTube.
  • The arrangement stands out because Mythical is not just licensing archive clips: its Monday-Friday GMM episodes will launch simultaneously on both platforms, extending a show that has run since 2012.
  • Netflix has been expanding beyond scripted fare by signing YouTube-native creators and publishers; last week it struck a deal with the Stokes Twins, whose YouTube audience tops 140 million subscribers.
  • For Mythical, the pact offers wider reach for a franchise that has logged more than 10 billion views, while giving Netflix another test of whether established digital talk and variety formats can work on its service.
