Approximately once a year, "The Show" comes around on Netflix. The Show cannot be missed; Everyone you know is talking about The Show, and critics are raving about The Show. The Show was Tiger King, The Queen's Gambit, Squid Game, and last year's Show, Baby Reindeer, took home just about every mainstream award possible. Well, it looks like The Show this year is Adolescence, the new British miniseries from creators Jack Thorne and Stephen Graham. Four episodes that are each shot in one continuous take, Adolescence tells the story of a 13-year-old boy who is accused of murdering his classmate.

It is still early to call, but Adolescence is perhaps the best Netflix fad to ever catch on. An unflinching examination of toxic masculinity and the impact of social media on today's youth, it is some of the bravest, most interesting, and conversation-inspiring television to come out in ages.

The data regarding Formula 1 suggests that Netflix might be the perfect partner for the racing league after the 2025 season.

The 2024 Formula 1 season has long passed the finish line, and the green flag has already dropped on the 2025 season. However, as the racing circuit looks toward a new media rights deal, looking back at last year’s viewership data will be incredibly important. As part of its current broadcast agreement in the United States, races appeared on ABC and ESPN channels over the course of the year, but data shows that ratings fell in the U.S. in 2024. However, F1 races continued to improve upon their impressive numbers around the globe. That information could point to an ideal broadcast partner for Formula 1 as it looks past 2025 into the future.

Key Details: Formula 1 races averaged 1.13 million viewers each in 2024. The racing league added more than 90 million new fans around the globe.

Do you remember watching Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness during the Covid-19 pandemic? The documentary followed the life and career of Joe Exotic, whose real name is Joseph Maldonado, a former zookeeper and convicted felon.

Exotic was the owner of the Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park (known as the G.W. Zoo) in Wynnewood, Oklahoma, from 1999 to 2018, prior to his conviction. He had a rivalry with Carole Baskin, who was the owner of Big Cat Rescue in Tampa, Florida.

Currently, he’s incarcerated in prison for an original 22-year sentence that includes 17 federal charges for animal abuse and two counts of attempted murder for hire against Baskin. Exotic has maintained his innocence in the murder-for-hire plot.

According to Exotic and his attorney, he has said that he has never seen the documentary on Netflix. The videos were a collection of...

There’s a recurring caution that runs throughout the NetFlix limited series, Mr. McMahon. Director Chris Smith does not belabor the point, but he makes sure viewers are reminded every once in a while that almost all of what we know about the life and career of wrestling mogul Vince McMahon has been carefully curated by McMahon himself.

Consequently, even in a supposed honest examination of the man who more or less invented the concept of “sports entertainment” for the 21st century, it would be wise to question everything.

Fortunately, Chris Smith is up to the task of teasing out various strata of truth. His breakthrough documentary, American Movie (1999), remains among the greatest and most revelatory movies of the 1990s. Smith has gone on to examine the nature of fact and fiction in other projects such as Jim & Andy: The Great Beyond (2017) and Tiger King (2020). The blurring of the...

Content Warning: The following article contains discussions of sexual violence, child abuse, pedophilia, torture, animal abuse, and murder.It was early 2020, the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, and lockdown had left everyone thumbing their remotes for something to watch. Suddenly, true crime documentaries were the fastest-growing genre across all streaming services. The phenomenal attention the Netflix docuseries Tiger King received, reaching a cool 64 million households, was just a drop in the ocean when it came to satisfying viewers’ thirst for gritty content. Morbid enthusiasts have embraced the mainstream attention and subsequent content boom, but what happens when you’ve wrung dry your go-to steaming services and are left thirsty for more?

This week marks the end of another SXSW Film & TV Festival, where IndieWire’s “Screen Talk” co-host Ryan Lattanzio was on the ground to review and cover films including Nicole Kidman’s suburban satire “Holland,” A24’s horror-comedy “Death of a Unicorn,” and Matthew McConaughey’s first film role in six years with the bluegrass-tinted Oklahoma Western “The Rivals of Amziah King.”

We recap the festival on this week’s “Screen Talk” episode, where documentaries including “The Python Hunt” (the latest nonfiction film from Matt Damon and Ben Affleck’s Artists Equity after U2 doc “Kiss the Future” and Jennifer Lopez’s “The Greatest Love Story Never Told”) and the UFO investigation “The Age of Disclosure” popped on the ground. “The Python Hunt” centers on a snake-hunting contest in the Florida Everglades and has earned comparisons to “Tiger King.” Meanwhile, while “The Age of Disclosure” wowed audiences with its talking-heads...

Joe Exotic divorced Dillon Passage in 2021, and the Tiger King personality got engaged to Jorge Marquez, a fellow inmate in prison. The news arrived in October last year via platform X. Joe serves time for allegedly arranging the death of Carole Baskin. Late last week, Joe cried and begged President Donald Trump not to deport his new lover.

Tearful Appeal By Netflix Character

The Tiger King star spoke with The Sun US on March 7, and he just wanted to get his message out to President Donald Trump. He must have married Jorge Marquez because he referred to him as a “husband.” As Marquez is Mexican, of course, he was high on the list for deportation and will leave America in May.

Exotic still has many years to run for his conviction, and he has been reported to not be very well. Probably, Marquez gave him lots of comfort behind bars.

Early in 2023, it was confirmed that the psychological thriller Mindhunter would not return for a third season. Directed by David Fincher, known for films like Fight Club and Seven, the Netflix TV series depicts the founding of the FBI Behavioral Science unit. Following the efforts of FBI Agents to study serial killers, the series explores the psychological impact of wading into the darkest parts of the human psyche. The mix of experimental visuals with stories about scientific exploration created a groundbreaking and unique approach to depicting true crime stories that helped the series stand out in a glut of true crime content.

Mindhunter's stories and characters deeply resonated with fans of intense crime thrillers and received critical acclaim, but Netflix ultimately canceled the show. The shocking cancelation of the acclaimed series was initially attributed to David Fincher's need to focus on other projects for Netflix, like his Oscar-winning film Mank.

Willa Fitzgerald and Colin Woodell lead a drama where work gets personal.

Netflix is scrubbing in for its first-ever English-language medical procedural, and “Pulse” is bringing more than just high-stakes ER drama—it’s got romance, tension, and plenty of heart-racing moments (literally). And since I’m a sucker for a love story, this one’s already got my attention. The show follows Dr. Danielle “Danny” Simms (Willa Fitzgerald), a rising star at Miami’s Maguire Medical Center who suddenly finds herself promoted to chief resident when Dr. Xander Phillips (Colin Woodell) is suspended. The catch? Xander isn’t just her boss - he’s also her ex, and as their messy past starts to spill into the ER, a hurricane barrels toward the city, trapping them inside the hospital together. With life-and-death stakes inside and out, “Pulse” looks like it’s serving up the perfect mix of drama, disaster,...

Dividing the package into multiple parts could help MLB pull in more revenue, but there are risks involved.

MLB has to choose its next steps very carefully. The league has taken the plunge and opted out of its longstanding broadcast deal with ESPN, a move which will see MLB games disappear from that network following the 2025 season. As it hunts for a new partner for that package of games, MLB executives face the question of whether or not they want to sell it all as one parcel, or if it will break it up into smaller parts in the hopes of potentially attracting streaming services like Netflix.

It appears that ESPN is ready to dump F1 races, which could provide Netflix with a golden opportunity.

It was something of a surprise when ESPN was able to retain Formula 1 broadcast the rights in 2022. Netflix — which airs the wildly popular F1 docuseries “Drive to Survive” — was reportedly very interested in the rights. Had the world’s largest streamer won the rights, they would have represented the first regularly-scheduled live sporting event in Netflix history. While the streaming giant missed out on the rights three years ago, it could have a chance to rectify that soon, as new reporting indicates that ESPN is ready to walk away from the racing league.

Key Details: John Ourand of Puck reports that ESPN is pulling out of F1 negotiations. Netflix and NBC have already approached the racing league about its rights. F1 is seeking a raise from the $90 million per year it currently makes for its races.

The league can get out of broadcast deals with CBS and Fox as soon as 2030, and if that happens Netflix could jump into the fray.

They say it’s good to have a five-year plan, and Netflix’s current plan is a doozy, especially when it comes to live sports. That’s because John Ourand of Puck News is reporting that Netflix wants to pursue a Sunday afternoon package of NFL games in the future. If it does, it would represent a considerable turnaround in Netflix’s thinking about live sports on its platform. For most of the streaming giant’s existence, it has shied away from live events of any kind, but in recent years, that strategy has been shifting, highlighted by two Christmas Day NFL games last season.

Key Details: Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria told Puck it wants to pursue Sunday afternoon NFL games in the future.

A new update is allowing some Apple TV owners to see shows and movies from Netflix in the Watchlist for easier navigation.

The user interface on your main streaming device can make a huge difference as to what content you watch, or don’t watch. Having your most recently-watched titles shown on a home screen can have a big influence on what you choose to turn on that viewing session, and in this regard Netflix has been at a disadvantage amongst owners of Apple TV devices. Formerly, Netflix titles did not appear in the Apple TV unified Watchlist, but it appears that is now changing.

Key Details: Some Apple TV owners are starting to see Netflix titles appear in the Watchlist and Continue Watching sections. Apple TV shows viewers the titles they watched last on other apps as well, such as Disney+ and Max. An official announcement from Netflix and Apple is likely coming soon.

The streaming service has an eye toward reducing content costs while simultaneously looking for new audiences.

Netflix may have surpassed 300 million subscribers in its latest quarterly earnings report, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to rest on its laurels. The world’s largest streamer has an increased willingness to pursue live programming and sports, opening it up to more streaming options, but a new report indicates Netflix is continuing to expand its content ambitions even further. According to Business Insider, Netflix is looking into potentially making investments in another rapidly growing entertainment segment: video podcasts.

Key Details: Netflix has increasingly warmed to the idea of having podcast talent host a talk show for it, according to agents.

Since the Covid-19 pandemic, studios are increasing their focus on theatrical releases, and streamers are pulling back their original movie slates.

One of the biggest headaches for movie studios is that cinemas are still struggling to recover from the Covid-19 pandemic.

However, new data from Luminate might help to allay some fears; Luminate Film & TV’s 2024 Year-End Report has some fascinating insights on the decreasing number of streaming original movies.

Many viewers experienced frustration with the quality of Monday’s key episode.

Netflix has taken a big stumble on the road to “Wrestlemania.” The streaming service has been the exclusive host of live episodes of “WWE Raw” for around a month now and has not experienced any major issues until now. That changed on Monday night, when many WWE fans reported their streams of “Raw” were choppy, skipped continuously, or were simply unwatchable.

Key Details: Monday’s “Raw” episode was the first following Saturday’s “Royal Rumble” event. Fans took to social media to express their frustration with the stream. Netflix assured WWE that it had resolved its major live-streaming problems after November’s Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight. Sign Up $7.99+ / month netflix.com

The book series about growing up in the American West was first turned into an enduringly popular TV show in the 1970s.

Netflix recently released an incredibly brutal look at life in the American West of the 19th century in “American Primeval.” The streamer is returning to a similar setting and timeframe, with its new series, though the content will almost certainly be less violent and adult in nature.

We don’t know much about it yet, but we’ll lay out all the details we do have below!

Isn’t it always a little bit of a bummer when a new feature comes out on your favorite streaming service? iPhone owners had to deal with this dilemma recently, as Netflix rolled out its Season Download feature for other mobile customers, but not for iOS.

A new study suggests that revenue per user on Netflix’s advertising tier will continue to be outpaced by its ad-free plans.

The journey into ad-supported streaming is a marathon, not a sprint for Netflix. The streaming service, which recently announced that it has crossed the of 300 million global customers threshold, is still not seeing explosive growth from its ad-supported “Standard with Ads” plan, first introduced in late 2022. Global advertising revenue is on the rise for Netflix, but new data from Bernstein Research shows that the streamer’s average revenue per member (Arm) on its ad plan will continue to lag behind that of its ad-free tier.

Key Details: Ad revenue for Netflix will jump to $4 billion in 2025. Bernstein doesn’t foresee the gap between ad-supported and ad-free revenue per member to close in the near future. Netflix recently announced a price increase on all of its streaming plans. Sign Up $7.99+ / month netflix.
