Joint CEO Netflix, Ted Sarandosstated that “they never canceled a successful series” in their catalog due to the many criticisms the service received for ending productions that were becoming popular.

In an interview with BloombergSarandos indicated that the series, canceled to date, was due to “a very small audience on a very large budget”.

straight into the jugular

Only in recent years Netflix canceled shows such as 1899 (from the creators of Dark), Everything Sucks!, Iron Fist, Santa Clarita Diet, The OA, Altered Carbon, Cowboy Bebop, and others.

“We have never canceled a successful show,” Sarandos said. “Many of these shows were well-intentioned, but they were aimed at a very small audience with a very large budget. The bottom line is that they should be able to perform in front of a small audience with a small budget and in front of a large audience with a big budget. If you do it right, you can do it forever.”

In the same joint interview, co-CEO Greg Peters he pointed to his super-popular South Korean international hit “Squid Game” as an example.

“We’re just starting to make Squid Game not something fancy, but basically something that happens literally every week,” he added.

they talk about everything

Looking to the future Netflix it plans to grow its advertising business and continue to expand its gaming offering in 2023, with a focus on the company’s intellectual property. Netflix he will also begin experimenting with live programming, collaborating with Chris Rock on a stand-up special in 2023.

According to the co-directors of the company, even Netflix you can continue to increase the number of subscribers. For them, Indonesia and India are markets worth paying attention to.

In addition, Greg Peters assured that although it will be difficult, they will provide content powerful enough that people who refuse to pay more for account sharing can return to the platform.

“We pride ourselves on being a great consumer experience and we don’t want that to change. It’s a phased approach, but the vast majority of people who don’t pay for Netflix will have to pay for Netflix. He reaches a fairly firm position,” he says.
