Bran flakes

Netflix's first six monthly list of what 247 million subscribers watched is notable for a serious amount of broadcasting bran.

It lists 18220 titles, some of them series, starting it's ranking at 100,000 hours consumed (presumably there are shows with a lower return). 30% of the total catalogue is described as 'non-English', much not distributed globally. 

But there are some shows available around the world among the 3,812 titles on 100k hours. They include 'Zion' a Netflix documentary on a legless wrestler; 'Yours sincerely, Kanan Gill' featuring an Indian stand-up comic; and a three-part mini-series, 'Whose Vote Counts, Explained' from 2020.

I suspect a few production companies will henceforward be looking for titles with higher alphabetical potential. I'm off to script Aardvark Unleashed......
