Its new live TV package could go far towards lining Hulu’s coffers, according to MoffettNathanson Research. Analysts said the service, launched last month, could generate annual ad revenue of $71.1 million and $568.3 million in subscriber fees once it lands 1.18 million subscribers. On the high end, Hulu Live could generate $474.3 million from ads and $2.27 billion in sub revenue.
Netflix’s Girlboss, which premiered April 21, will not make it to a second season. Comedy from Denver & Delilah centered on a broke anarchist turned unlikely entrepreneur. The cancellation follows the streaming service’s axing of The Get Down and Sense8.
