Netflix promises over 1,000 hours of new content for 2017

We’re covering the panels at Netflix’s event in New York City and the streaming service is promising even more content for the year. In fact, they are saying there will be over 1,000 hours of content this year ranging from new films, series, stand-up specials, to documentaries with each catering to varied interests.

“We aren’t in the business of creating ‘one size fits all’ programming, or building slates to fill a finite number of hours of a programming grid,” said Ted Sarandos, Chief Content Officer at Netflix. “We’re catering to a dynamic world full of people with different tastes - and as a result, no two Netflix experiences are alike - we want to have something for everyone to enjoy.” Some of the new stuff to watch for include Bill Nye Saves The World, Marvel’s Iron Fist, Chef’s Table Season 3, Dear White People, Girlboss, and Julie’s Greenroom, to name a few.
