What is Quibi?

Quibi is an  American short-form mobile video platform which is unlike other streaming video platforms like Netflix.  Quibi’s content is a new concept where episodes will be viewed in chapters of 6 to 10 minutes.  It is the first service that will only be viewed on mobile phones and can be viewed in what they call Turnstiles.  This means a viewer can watch in either Portrait or landscape mode.  It is even said that some content will be interactive showing different areas dependent on the way the phone is viewed.  Each episode is edited in both formats, so the viewers chosen format will always be at its best for the feature.

The Fugitive centers on Mike Ferro (Holbrook), a passenger on an L.A. subway train that is bombed.

Wrongfully, and publicly accused, Mike must prove his innocence by finding the real perpetrator before legendary Detective Clay Bryce (Sutherland), who’s heading the investigation, can apprehend him. With the city in a panic and misinformation spreading via social media, Mike’s life and family hang in the balance as he goes on the run.

The series comes from Warner Bros. TV and is produced by Thunder Road Films with 3 Arts Entertainment. Santora and Hopkins executive produce with Basil Iwanyk, Tom Lassally and Albert Torres.
