CBS Corporation and Netflix, Inc. announced that they have extended a deal that gave Netflix access to select CBS library content, including Star Trek.
The original two-year deal was set to expire this year.
“We are delighted to be bringing these much-loved series to our members in the U.S.,” said Ted Sarandos, chief content officer for Netflix. “Our goal is to give Netflix members a broad mix of engaging shows to watch, and we look forward to adding even more high-profile titles from CBS in the near future.”
Five televised Star Trek series were included in the original deal.
Other shows in the agreement include both new additions; such as L.A. Complex, 4400 and CSI:NY; as well as shows that had already been available, such as Jericho, Medium, Twin Peaks and Flashpoint.
