What’s leaving this weekend?

The Netflix streaming library will suffer a loss this weekend. On Saturday, the second season of the Australian reality series Instant Hotel is set to depart, following the exit of Season 1 in December. Although the show is considered a Netflix Original in the U.S. Netflix only served as the U.S. distributor for the series, which aired on Australia’s Seven Network and was produced by Seven Studios. It seems likely that Netflix’s licensing deal with Seven Studios may have expired, explaining the show’s departure from the streaming service, which will be followed by several more exits later this month.
