The important thing you mentioned is the same news as the fact that they have exclusive rights. Exclusivity means other outlets can't show it.

"Exclusive for nine months" extends to the new episodes, whereas Netflix and such are showing older episodes. They're different things.

I understood that Netflix won't be able to stream any episodes at all, old or new.
