They used to do that for a handful of shows due to streaming contracts, but last time I checked (~2019) it was literally two shows. Is it more now?
To me, it seemed to be any show that also showed on live TV stations or something? I didn't know the exact reasons, but it did seem to happen with things affiliated with certain TV stations. But the fact that they do/have done it at all is enough to turn me off.
Edit: I haven't been subscribed since probably 2021, so I have no idea how it is now.
