Video rental company, Netflix, announced Monday that it has signed an agreement with Disney-ABC Television Group that will make several of the ABC broadcast network's most popular series available to be streamed instantly through Netflix's broadband video service. According to the company, the deal will allow Netflix subscribers to instantly stream the first five seasons of "Lost"; seasons four and five of "Desperate Housewives"; season five of "Grey's Anatomy"; and seasons one and two of the ABC Studios syndicated action-adventure/fantasy series, "Legend of the Seeker." A number of episodes--including the first four seasons of "Lost"--have been available on Netflix as a result of the new deal, and the company says that the rest will begin rolling out soon.
The new agreement between Netflix and Disney-ABC, which was brokered by Disney-ABC Domestic Television, extends an existing broadband video relationship between the companies, which announced their first digital licensing deal last September.
