DC’s Dead Boy Detectives gets a second chance at life on Netflix.

The supernatural show, which is based on a DC comic by Neil Gaiman and Matt Wagner, was supposed to make its debut on HBO Max — but it apparently didn’t mesh with the company’s vision for the DC Universe, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

That’s how Netflix wound up with the rights to the Greg Berlanti-produced series, where it might fit better among other shows from the producer, like The Sandman and You.

Meanwhile in Canada...

Feeling insecure about the Canadian presence on digital streamers and social media, the Canadian government is days away from passing a law requiring more Canadian content on TikTok, YouTube, Spotify, Netflix and so on...

Sad, isn’t it?

The new Tomb Raider mobile roguelike is out now.

Tomb Raider Reloaded, which was first revealed just a couple weeks ago, is out now. I beat the first level on iOS, and I enjoyed it more than I suspected, but my interest waned after I saw the complicated smorgasbord of leveling and equipment options in the main menu.

You can download it now on iOS and Android, and if you’re a Netflix subscriber, you can play versions for iOS and Android with no ads or in-app purchases.

Update February 14th, 2:13PM ET: Added links separating Netflix and non-Netflix versions.

It’s one licensing deal, Michael. What could it cost?

Netflix is losing all five seasons of Arrested Development next month, which includes the three seasons that are actually good. Subscribers can still stream the show until March 14th. I guess you could call today’s news the final countdown.
