All the data science in the world can’t make up for the shitty Netflix content

Yep, they’re a “content producer” but maybe 1 in 20 shows or movies they put our OS actually compelling. They have certain titles they do well with (The Witcher comes to mind) but for everything else they have the well-established Netflix-Curse of cancelling shows instead of finishing them, so that they can crow about having a new show.

Every outlet cancels underperforming shows. Netflix fires a lot of more against the wall than just about anyone else, so they end up with a lot more that doesn't stick.

Well said. So much of what they make is sheer drivel, all of it with that same sheen of value-oriented film/tv-making.
