All 180 Seinfeld episodes will be available to stream for all Netflix subscribers worldwide starting in 2021. Netflix has struck a deal with Sony Pictures Television, which controls Seinfeld rights. Hulu currently has Seinfeld's streaming rights. Landing Seinfeld will help Netflix as it loses The Office and Friends in coming years. "Seinfeld is a one-of-a-kind, iconic, culture-defining show,” Sony Pictures Television Chairman Mike Hopkins said in a statement to the Los Angeles Times. “Now, 30 years after its premiere, Seinfeld remains center stage. We’re thrilled to be partnering with Netflix to bring this beloved series to current fans and new audiences around the globe.” ALSO: Seinfeld reportedly only accounted for 1% of Hulu's viewing.
