That surprises me - Netflix seem pretty good at accommodating UK culture as a contrast. Local shows like The Crown, for example.
- GekkePrutser 5y agoSome local productions yes. They do that in every EU country too because it's in fact an EU requirement to do so. But the UK is culturally much more similar to America than the rest of Europe. For us there should just be a preferred language setting instead of just dumping the user in a certain box because of the IP they connect from.
- brimble 5y agoHuh—I never saw Netflix' British content as accommodating UK culture, but as accommodating American Anglophilia. Same reason they have a ton of Japanese content. Maybe it's both, I suppose.
