There are two other free streamers owned by the OTA networks:  PlutoTV is
owned by ViacomCBS and has CBSN and linear channels of ViacomCBS content,
if not day-after streaming.  Fox Media owns Tubi, a traditional free
streamer--due to existing contracts it can only do day-after streaming of
unscripted properties owned by Fox (notably "The Masked Singer").
Everything else on the network (including the unscripted shows) is still
day-after on Hulu.

Also, older still-running CW titles are still on Netflix and CBS has the
right to put the titles they own like "Walker" on Paramount+.
