Too Long; Didn't Read
Netflix is succeeding even as the COVID-19 pandemic sends the world into a recession. The all-digital entertainment company is well suited to the needs of people sheltering in place. Netflix added 15.77 million subscribers, the biggest quarterly subscriber growth ever for Netflix. Netflix is also growing because it creates engaging content, is giving back to society, and runs its business well. The company is culturally relevant because the shows Tiger King, Stranger Things, The Witcher, and La Casa de Papel/Money Heist tap into the cultural zeitgeist.
