LoveFilm Gets Exclusive On The Walking Dead for UK

Part of competing in the TV streaming business is getting your hands on content that other services don't have and Amazon's LoveFilm today announced that it's beat streaming giant Netflix to a big one: The Walking Dead.

"Securing the exclusive streaming rights to The Walking Dead is another exciting development for us," said Chris Bird, Director of Film Strategy at LoveFilm. "It is seriously impressive that the show has become one of the most-watched drama series in basic US cable history, and a real testament to its quality. We are thrilled to bring this great content to our members, especially as we are the only subscription service in the country to do so."

LoveFilm says season one of the show is available for LoveFilm Instant subscribers starting today. Additional seasons will appear on the service over the next 18 months. There are currently three seasons in the Walking Dead series. Season four is starting this coming October.
