Fair enough. They care about subscriber numbers. Although there's probably some correlation with quality so long as you equate the term with quality that appeals to a fairly mainstream audience (i.e. not Euro arthouse fare).

But I don't actually see Netflix programming as aiming to make, e.g. reality TV drek. Most of their programming does seem to be aiming for midbrow quality although it often doesn't hit it.

Most shows and movies developed by Netflix are profoundly uninspired: they take no risks and produce content that is mostly acceptable but quickly forgotten.

Looking down the list, I don't really disagree. House of Cards which got me to subscribe to streaming was 5 star in my book at first. I'd probably put some others in the 4 star range. (Never could really get into Stranger Things or, really, The Crown.)

Half their content is algorithm generated
