Netflix will eliminate most of its BBC programs by January 31 due to an expiring contract.
Shows like “Doctor Who,” “Luther,” “Black Adder,” “Fawlty Towers,” “Coupling,” “Top Gear,” “House of Cards” (the original British version), “Wallander,” and more will disappear from the streaming network’s lineup in the event an agreement on a new deal isn’t reached, according to Vulture.
The popular streaming channel entered the winners’ circle at Sunday’s Golden Globes as “House of Cards” star Kevin Spacey won best actor in a TV drama—his first Golden Globe victory.
