I wondered if The Night Agent was a show from years ago they're licensing from the BBC, but I'm confusing it with The Night Manager: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-ZcaKdvML8

#52Crazy to see The Witcher Season 2 (renewed), Sandman (renewed) and 1899 (cancelled) so closely grouped.
The cancellation of 1899 was the last straw for me.

#53Don't worry, we can still blame discovery/promotion for lackluster viewing numbers when kvetching about what they chose to cancel.

Sub numbers? How would you exactly relate sub numbers vs shows? Try and graph how many people only watched 1 show, or watched that show right after joining?
Basically answer two questions: 1 - How much minimal time does a consumer watch Netflix to re-subscribe? 2 - How much content spend is necessary to achieve that minimal viewing time? Everything else is waste and lost margin.
That threshold is likely shifting as Netflix has less and less compelling content, and the competition markets their exclusives more.
Though maybe there is some core who just doesn't bother cancelling and resubscribing because it's become a hassle.

interesting that this custom gpt works in the ios chatgpt app while some others don’t. Is it because it doesn’t have any custom actions?
Btw it gave me wrong answer to most watched tv show in 2023.

#58This is a wonderful gold mine for data geeks. The real question to me is why Netflix is releasing this. It's a massive boon for their competitors. My instinct is they either were hacked/people were able to game the recommendations enough to get at it that they decided to just share it. Unexpected.

Witcher S1 is at row 171 Witcher S2 at row 233 Witcher S3 at row 556
I really love the production values, the costumes, the makeup, the world. I love the idea of the Witcher. But I have no idea what the story is about or what anybody is talking about. It's just all way too complicated.
The TV show made it hard to follow.
The games are fairly easy to get I’d say.

I suspect it’s deliberate business strategy.
Netflix wants to licence more content and sees value in demonstrating to the stock market that it has the best economics to do so.
If Netflix can get ten million viewers for a tier 2 general entertainment series, the IP holders should pick Netflix as a partner over a Paramount+ type service that can only get a few hundred thousand viewers.
It’s no coincidence this announcement is coming at a time when everyone is trying to reduce first party content spend.
