They’re about to lose even more subscribers.
And the Netflix bloodbath begins. Multiple execs fired, new shows canceled, anime studio slashed

I know someone on the Netflix Animation team that was practically living in Japan trying to do just that.
They were let go.
Will there still be a season 2 of squid game?

In light of Netflix’s concerning subscriber losses, the company announced today during its first-quarter earnings call that it will expand its test that charges members a higher price if they’re engaged in account sharing with people outside their household. The company first began testing the feature in March in Chile, Costa Rica and Peru, but now says it plans to implement the solution in global markets, including the U.S., in around a year’s time.
The streamer clarified it will need to continue to iterate on the feature for roughly a year or so, to make sure it gets the balance right in terms of how much extra to charge subscribers who have shared their Netflix account with other users outside their own household.

All they have to do is not allow the whole season to stream at once. They have to string out these seasons - maybe 3eps release a week. It’ll keep subscribers all year. You can get a 9ep season in 15 days as opposed to a 2 day binge. Or release an episode every 2 days that way people can follow the releases or wait until the end to binge the whole thing.

They have enough original content to keep people subscribed if they stretch out the releases. Oh well though. Back to cable

The only shyt that's got a guaranteed a future on Netflix is shyt like Squid Game. More seasons, prequels, spin-offs, merch. The data telling their execs their way forward

It’s been green lit. Not filming as of yet though. No way it’s not renewed. It’s the most watched Netflix season by a long margin.

I guess they're working on a prequel for money heist
King of boys could use a prequel
They do this I’m out or telling some family to kick in.

The problem is you don't know what's churning in a profit until it's out, a lot of these shows get cancelled before the first season has even aired

No. That is not what they've been doing. Giving 70 million to Ryan Reynolds, Dwayne Johnson and Gal Gadot to make a heist movie is the opposite of that. There is no merchandising potential in a film like that. That movie can still be made for 50 million, but that means "names" have to take a haircut.
This is unsustainable. The Simpsons became its own ecosystem of revenue. Same with the Disney Princess series. The Pixar series, CARS, is a perfect example. The movies do meh at best. The merch sells 1000% more.
Someone here mentioned franchise and they're absolutely right.
They really needed someone to establish a core identity for the product and to create a series of cultural significance that they own.
Take Friends as an example. I think they spent 100 million a year to air that series. It is nice, but why not invest that money into creating a sitcom for this generation.
Similar with the Marvel shows. Where are they now? There shouldn't have been anything stopping them from creating the same story but with different characters to get around the copy right laws. They would be in a position to build from the verse created, pivot into selling comics, toys etc.
Everything about their actions show that they're operating in the short term. Even the way they're responding to drop in valuation.
Hiking up the prices, clamping down on account sharing and introducing adverts isn't going to help the situation.
They need to remember that Netflix is not a service people need. It is used because it is convenient. If it stops being convenient, people will stop paying for it.
