The International Netflix Original Pickup blank slate will leave Netflix globally in April 2023 when its streaming rights are renewed.
Created by Veerle Baetens and Malin-Sarah Gozin, the series first aired in Belgium on the Eén network in October 2017. It was then licensed exclusively to most Netflix regions globally on March 15, 2017. 2018. However, a notable region that does not receive blank slate it was Netflix in the UK.
According to Netflix, here’s the official rundown of the series if you decide to watch the 9-episode miniseries before it’s gone:
“When a young woman with amnesia becomes a key figure in a missing persons case, she must piece together her memories to clear her name.”
Decider was one of the few media that review the limited series in 2018, calling it “Slow-Burn” and a “truly terrifying Thriller”.
The show was notably the first major Flemish-language show to be labeled as a Netflix Original. Since then, we have seen the release of under fire, Clandestine, two summersand Floor at the service, with Rough diamonds scheduled to open.
When blank slate leave netflix?
Now, just over five years after the mystery thriller was picked up by Netflix, the license is now up for renewal.
The series is scheduled to leave Netflix globally on April 1, 2023, with a removal date currently displayed on the Netflix page for the show stating that its “Last Day to Watch” is March 31.
One thing to keep in mind is that Netflix has, in the past, renewed Netflix Original licenses once they left. Of course, if that happens, we’ll update you next, though that’s mostly been for English-language shows.
Once blank slate leaves, it will join a list of dozens of other Netflix Originals removed from the service. This fact has gone largely unnoticed in the mainstream beyond a couple of deletions like arrested development and hemlock grove, but we will keep watching.
