"We're excited to offer global audiences season one of 'How To Get Away With Murder,' offering members a chance to discover it for the first time or relive the drama of season one before the new season's premiere."
The first season of the legal drama was produced by ABC Studios and was created by Pete Nowalk and executively produced by Nowalk and Shonda Rhimes, who created "Scandal" and "Grey's Anatomy" for ABC, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
