I gotta say I love Wandavision, but I’m going to miss a lot of these old shows. Especially Daredevil! Agents of Shield lagged for a bit, but they had me wanting more in the last season.

Really hope that Marvel listens to the fan campaigns to bring these shows back. I'm very active in Save Daredevil and I'd love to see all of the others shows brought back. For the former Netflix shows, I'd love for them to show up on Hulu in the U.S. and Star internationally, since they could maintain their TV-MA ratings there. (Disney owns both those services. In the U.S. Disney + is family-friendly only.)
@RedRoom1984 Hulu is the best option! I think Disney has a deal with them right now and it would be financially prudent for them to throw the shows on there. I feel like the main issue is Netflix still having the rights. Once that contract runs out I want to see production to start on all the former Netflix shows.
@Isiah Forward Jr. I never got around to Runaways, but I’ve heard good things.
@Trevor Long It’s definitely worth checking out. I consider it a hidden gem in the mcu tv side of things.
I enjoyed Runaways! I read the first seven volumes before watching it to prepare myself. It's a lot of fun.
@RedRoom1984 It’s a really fun show with an excellent group dynamic between the runaways. Nico and Alex are my favorites.
All of them are incredibly sad to be cancelled, cuz all of them became better and better.
They will never have the rights to stream the show since it is a netflix original. AoS will eventually leave netflix once the contract runs up
@MiraculousKeeper Disney and Hulu actually could just buy them out. NBC did the same thing with Brooklyn Nine Nine after Fox’s cancelation. It actually happens a lot.
According to everything that's been said in the trades, Netflix has exclusive streaming rights to those shows for a certain period of time. I cannot find any record of actually how long that is, though. From the Hollywood Reporter in 2019:
Put simply: Netflix did not have an ownership stake in any of its Marvel TV series. Each of the six Marvel shows was owned by Disney. Netflix paid ABC Studios a (steep) licensing fee for each season of its respective series.
From Bob Iger, shortly after the Netflix deal was announced:
This gives us an opportunity to create and own four new series that Netflix will have exclusivity [on] for a period of time, starting in [2015], when the series are made available to them.
