Netflix on Friday announced an expansion of its deal with Twentieth Century Fox, which will bring shows like "Glee" and "Sons of Anarchy" to Netflix's streaming service starting today.
Subscribers can now access the first season of "Glee" and the first two seasons of "Sons of Anarchy," and more seasons will be added annually, Netflix said.
In addition, the deal will add series like "Ally McBeal" and "The Wonder Years" to Netflix streaming for the first time, and Fox will provide access to some of its movies after their premium pay TV license periods end.
For the non-Gleeks, Fox's "Glee" follows the ups and downs of high school glee club as they try to win Nationals and avoid a vindictive cheerleading coach - all set to song, of course.
"Sons of Anarchy," meanwhile, airs on FX and explores a notorious outlaw motorcycle club's desire to protect its livelihood while ensuring that their simple, sheltered town of Charming, California remains exactly that.
The existing Fox agreement allows Netflix to stream shows like "Prison Break," "Arrested Development," X-Files," "24," and "Buffy The Vampire Slayer," among others.
Recently, Netflix moved into the original programming space, announcing plans to air the TV series "House of Cards" exclusively on "Watch Instantly," beginning in 2012. In the days surrounding that announcement, Showtime said it would no longer provide some of its original programming to Netflix, while Starz said it would delay the streaming debut of its new show "Camelot" for 90 days instead of one day.
Netflix also secured a five-year deal with Paramount Pictures for the rights to stream its films, but the deal will currently only be available to Netflix's Canadian customers.
