Former President Barack Obama is in advanced negotiations with Netflix to produce a series of high-profile shows that will provide him a global platform after his departure from the White House, according to people familiar with the discussions.

Under terms of a proposed deal, which is not yet final, Netflix would pay Mr. Obama and his wife, Michelle, for exclusive content that would be available only on the streaming service, which has nearly 118 million subscribers around the world. The number of episodes and the formats for the shows have not been decided.

Barry’s show should open with the video from Ellen Degeneres Show that had Michelle’s flopping pants sausage on full display during her dance routine.

Narcissists never get over themselves. He thinks he is still relevant, important. What a clown, still craving an audience. I hope his efforts bankrupt anyone associated with them.

Netflix and Amazon as of late have ben dancing with leftists. I can hardly wait for spring when the TV remote sits in a drawer unused.

Obama is like syphillis or ghonorea. It never really goes away.

I have had a Netflix subscription since back when they were a DVD mail order company. It is a shame I will now have to cancel it.

Did Obambi even make his final four baskety ball picks public this year?

Cancellation in 3.2.1. Actually it will be easy. Now that I think about it, we don’t use that subscription at all since they split out DVD rentals.

Billy Clinton described the perfect role for Barrack: “A guy to get us coffee”.
Sort of a low-brow “Dinner with Andre”.

All his TV projects will be fiction. Just like his “accomplishments” and his “legacy.”

Actually this will be great. Netflix will take a massive loss on the project and the Obamas will get in hard undeniable numbers the proof that nobody cares what they have to say.
