experience love
I love, personally, the experience of going to the theater, going to the cinema.
itself speaks terms treatment
I think when you see 'Ridiculous Six,' the show speaks for itself in terms of its treatment of American Indians.
experience home replicate room sit
If you want to go out and see a movie and sit in a dark room with strangers, it's not an experience you can replicate at home.
reactions viewers viewing volume
'Marco Polo' had some negative reactions in the press. Viewers have loved it, and the volume of viewing has been phenomenal.
enjoyed great success
'Orange Is the New Black' and 'Sense8' have enjoyed great success all over the world.
base fan feature original
Our feature film, 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Two,' has a built-in fan base from the original film.
criteria longer members people success watch
The longer people watch Netflix and the longer they stay members - they're the criteria of success for us.

The typical output deal from a studio is 10 to 14 movies a year.
unless
There's no such thing as 'too much TV,' unless we're all spending more and not watching more.

'Walking Dead' has done great on Netflix, but to pay for the full output deal just to get 'Walking Dead' didn't make sense.
attract audience built money relative spent
When we say a show is successful, it's because, relative to the investment, it's successful, relative to how else we would have spent that money on licensing something else, does this creation - did it attract the audience that it was built for.

When we set out our original program from the beginning, obviously our markets were pretty limited, and we were thinking about them mostly as U.S. shows, and they would travel like other U.S. shows have.
content five frequently pieces presented rate rated various watch watched
When we show you all these various pieces of content on the site, how frequently do you take the one that we present? And of the one you took, how frequently do you completely watch the whole series? And do you rate it, one to five stars? So if we presented it to you, and you watched it, and you rated it, that's a big win.
bigger expensive looking sell shows tv
When we started looking at the bigger television ecosystem, you see that there's not that many serialized TV shows being made for TV. The economics are lousy: They don't sell into syndication well; they're expensive to produce.
