Analysis of ‘Netflix "Top 10" TV Shows and Films’ provided by Analyst-2 (analyst-2.ai), based on source dataset retrieved from https://www.kaggle.com/dhruvildave/netflix-top-10-tv-shows-and-films on 28 January 2022.

--- Dataset description provided by original source is as follows ---

Every Tuesday, Netflix publishes four global Top 10 lists for films and TV: Film (English), TV (English), Film (Non-English), and TV (Non-English). These lists rank titles based on weekly hours viewed: the total number of hours that members around the world watched each title from Monday to Sunday of the previous week.

Each season of a series and each film is considered on their own, so you might see both Stranger Things seasons 2 and 3 in the Top 10. Because titles sometimes move in and out of the Top 10, there is also the total number of weeks that a season of a series or film has spent on the list.

Netflix also publishes Top 10 lists for nearly 100 countries and territories (the same locations where there are Top 10 rows on Netflix). Country lists are also ranked based on hours viewed but don’t show country-level viewing directly.

Finally, Netflix provides a list of the Top 10 most popular Netflix films and TV (branded Netflix in any country) in each of the four categories based on the hours that each title was viewed during its first 28 days.

In 2024, Netflix reported a revenue of nearly 17 billion U.S. dollars in the United States and Canada, up from around 15 billion in the previous year. The revenue generated in the North American countries was more than triple the amount brought in from Latin America and Asia Pacific. Netflix faces challenge to keep growing While the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) region is Netflix’s second largest market in terms of revenue, the subscriber base in this region surpassed that in the U.S. and Canada for the first time in 2022. These countries experienced the most substantial combined subscriber loss when Netflix struggled to continue to grow in the same year as the service’s price has increased significantly over the past few years, leading audiences to switch to more affordable entertainment options. However, after this reported drop, the streaming giant seems to be back on track, adding around 30 million net subscribers in only one year. Consumers’ perception of Netflix Netflix has long been the SVOD market leader worldwide, despite rising competition. However, the perception of the streaming giant has taken a hit in the last few years. While the share of customers who were satisfied with Netflix amounted to 90 percent in 2021, the satisfaction rate declined below the 80 percent mark. Moreover, a survey asking users about eight different streaming services revealed that Netflix saw the highest year-over-year drops in the share of subscribers who were likely to keep the platform between 2021 and 2023.

Content available on Netflix – additional information

In order to maintain its competitive edge in the streaming market, Netflix heavily relies on its content, offering a large base of videos for its subscribers. Over the last years, the company has significantly increased its investment in content, as Netflix’s streaming content obligations jumped from 1.3 billion U.S. dollars in 2010 to 10.9 billion U.S. dollars in 2015. Content obligations of less than one year and of one to three years account for the majority of this total. The streaming costs of acquired programming have also increased drastically since 2012, and are forecast to rise to 3.9 billion U.S. dollars in 2017.

The number of videos available on Netflix depends on the country the service is being provided. It can vary from 5,680 – number of videos available on Netflix for American subscribers as of January 2016 – to 643 videos - number of videos available for United Arab Emirates’ subscribers. This figure includes both series and movies. The United States has the largest base of content available on Netflix, followed by Brazil and Mexico.

In terms of costs, there are two types of content on Netflix: original series and acquired content. The cost of Netflix’s original series is rather low in comparison to the acquisition costs. For instance, nearly 90 million U.S. dollars were spent on original series in 2013, while expenditure of acquired programming in the same year added up to 2.3 billion U.S. dollars. Netflix's investment in original series has paid off, helping the company secure its place in this industry among television giants such as HBO and NBC. From 2013 to 2015, Netflix received a total of 78 Emmy Awards nominations for its original programs, winning 12 of them. Some of Netflix Emmy Award winners include the series ‘House Of Cards’ and ‘Orange Is The New Black’, and the documentary 'The Square'.
