What happened to Magnum PI and Masters of Sex?

MNP — Tue, 02 Apr 2024 01:49:14 GMT

I've been watching these 2 series On Demand for the last several weeks on my Bell Fibe TV Streamer. The last time I watched an episode was Thursday, just 3 days ago. Suddenly today (April 1st) I can't find either of these shows anymore. They are not even listed on the home screen anymore under: "Continue enjoying", which is where I normally go to get to the next episide or "resume".can someone tell me what changed and why?

Thank you for your question. While I can't speak to show specifics, the general reason a movie or series "disappears" is that the license to broadcast, which the provider purchases from the show's rights holder or distributor, expires. These licenses can be time limited. The show is then removed from broadcast availability or taken out of rotation. Annoying, I agree, but it is the reality of the medium. The same is true of regular broadcasting services and not just streaming.
