Netflix TV Shows & Movies Online 2015: Will Twice as Many Titles Arrive in 2016?
Video buffet streaming platform Netflix has started an all-out invasion on the original programming market and this year has been a spectacular one for the company. Now that the company has tested the waters and knows what subscribers want, it is prepared to double its menu of offerings next year with original content.
According to WIRED, Netflix made its entrance into the streaming buffet market and soared to epic heights with initially only offering reruns of broadcast and cable TV shows, as well as documentaries and other hit films.
But nothing spelled success for the company quite as much as its original programming. This move comes on the news that network broadcasters were considering pulling their original content from the streaming platform and about to use that content to increase their own revenue.
Apparently, Netflix did not get squeamish to this idea, considering their powerhouse original series like "House of Cards," "Orange is the New Black" and "Daredevil" have become massive breakout hits for them. But those shows are just a small fraction of what they currently have to offer.
It has most recently debuted two other great TV series, "Jessica Jones" and "Master of None." But these still do not makeup the vast number of offerings for the company.
Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos spoke at the UBS Media Conference in New York on Monday and gave his take on what to expect from their menu.
"This is high quality stuff," Sarandos said. "This is programming people want to watch."
In 2015 alone, Netflix had 16 original scripted TV series. This does not include the 12 documentaries and 10 stand-up specials that they debuted as originals, or even the movies such as the Idris Elba starring "Beasts of No Nation."
There is going to be a whopping 31 originals debuting next year in 2016. That number will also be increased by the standups, documentaries and 30 shows for kids to watch, all originals. You can also top that number with an additional 10 feature films.
