Netflix’s new co-CEO seems to have a pretty clear idea of what success looks like. At least if you consider their recent interview with Bloomberg.
When asked about the seemingly constant stream of canceled shows, many of which never even saw a second season, co-CEO Ted Sarandos perked up, saying : “We’ve never canceled a successful show.
Sarandos went on to add, “A lot of these shows are well-intentioned, but on a very big budget talking to a very small audience. The point is you have to be able to talk to a small audience on a small budget and a big audience on a big budget. If you do it right , you can do this forever.
