Can’t find season 12 of Curb Your Enthusiasm

[stuart11k]

I was watching season 12 of Curb Your Enthusiasm on SkyGo just 2 days ago...had 2 episodes left to watch (eps 9 & 10).

Went to watch last night, but all of season 12 has disappeared! 🤷🏼‍♂️. Seasons 1-11 still available.

Any idea of what is going on?

The usual reason content disappears like this is because the right have expired, even in this case as earlier seasons are shown so it might be worth sending an email to the Viewer Relations team at Sky and asking them about this -  viewerR@sky.uk

Many thanks. Yes that may well be it. Have emailed them.

Did you hear back. I've was just about to start season 12 until I realised it had gone. 

[stuart11k]

Yes I did. This was the reply I got (below the '-0-'

. I find it a bit odd as Sky did a huge deal to have HBO exclusively, I assume this is the brief window when you can only get it if you buy it eg as a DVD.

So we'll both have to wait until it's back on Sky...

Thanks for your email regarding Curb Your Enthusiasm on Sky Comedy.

New catchup content like, Season 12 was a new series and on Catchup for approximately 30 days.

Catchup and Box Sets are only available for a certain length of time due to licensing restrictions.
When you download episodes there is the expiry date in the synopsis, if it has less than 30 days to expire.
We currently do not have a date for the full box set season 12 return,  however you may like American Auto on Sky Comedy,

its very good.

Their reply does make sense because if this series 12 was on catchup then it will have been available for 30 days unlike anything on boxsets which can be there for a good few months on end.

[Darren84]

Thanks for the reply. Hopefully it will be available in a few months.

Thanks for this. Useful to know. Series 9 just disappeared and I was half way through it. 😕

Anyone know how long Sky normally 'rest' series between offering them up again?

That isn't a question we customers can ask on here and usually the rights will now reside with someone else for a period of time.

My guess is that the dvd/for sale window will be 3-4 months and then it will be back.

But that really is just a guess

Physical Media: For DVD or Blu-ray releases, new TV series seasons are generally available several months after the season finale airs. This can range from three to six months, depending on the series and the distributor.
