At Stream Tracker, we're taking a look at Sidney Lumet's blistering satire Network (1976) — a film that turns the TV newsroom into a live, merciless spectacle. When veteran anchorman Howard Beale threatens suicide on-air and his rant sends ratings through the roof, Network skewers the corrosive pact between profit and news with lines that still echo ("I'm as mad as hell..."). The film was widely celebrated at the time, winning four Academy Awards, including Best Actor (Peter Finch), Best Actress (Faye Dunaway), Best Supporting Actress (Beatrice Straight) and Best Original Screenplay (Paddy Chayefsky). Below, Stream Tracker tells you whether you can catch this classic on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or Apple TV+ in your region and how to find the broadcast if it’s currently streaming.

Synopsis

A long-serving news anchor, forced to step down after 25 years on the air due to his age, shocks the audience by declaring he will take his own life on his farewell broadcast. His raw, impassioned address then draws a surge in viewers, prompting network executives to rethink their decision.
