Vibe: Data-driven, global, binge-friendly. Key Productions: Stranger Things, Squid Game, The Crown, Wednesday, Glass Onion. Review: Netflix’s superpower is variety and reach. Squid Game became a global phenomenon not despite being Korean, but because of it. However, their “greenlight everything, cancel after two seasons” model is infuriating.

Their secret: letting auteurs (Christopher Nolan) cook while also serving family/animation audiences (Illumination). The Fast & Furious franchise is running on fumes, but Five Nights at Freddy’s showed they understand Gen Z’s love for game adaptations. Grade: A- – Balanced portfolio, strong theatrical strategy. Vibe: Data-driven, global, binge-friendly
