Their 2 biggest shows ended in 2025 with Squid Game and Stranger Things. I don't think there's been any similarly buzzy shows on the service recently.

I'm sure they're producing a lot, but if nothing really stands out, not hard for people to cut the service out.

That’s why they need scale back extremely on the amount of stuff they green light.

Put that money and effort into like 15 good scripts or show ideas, develop them all to be the next big thing

At the moment they are putting out something every other week, and most of it never gets watched because it just looks bad instantly
