Scream is an original Netflix series so it is leaving.

Netflix has many different Netflix Originals that can be streamed, however Netflix fails to show the differences between licensed Netflix Originals and those produced by Netflix.

The exclusive license of content includes Scream. When a series like Scream is made and distributed in a country other than Netflix, but is licensed by Netflix for exclusive distribution to international viewers.

Peaky Blinders is another example. The BBC produces and distributes the British version of Peaky Blinders. However, Peaky Blinders is licensed exclusively by Netflix outside the UK. This is the reason the show has been listed as a Netflix Original.

Another example is Netflix's licensing of the vast majority of its KDrama content. Netflix has exclusive access to all weekly K-Dramas that are not available in South Korea.

Scream was added to Netflix for the first time in October 2015. Although the show was available for streaming on Netflix for nearly seven years, its licensing is ending.

What is the reason Scream season 3 didn't arrive on Netflix in the US?

The third season of Scream was not available on Netflix for fans outside the US. Scream season 3 was not available due to a dispute between Netflix, the Weinstein Company. This resulted from an older output agreement between the two companies.

Will Scream Seasons 1 & 2 will be ending Netflix USA
