“Netflix & the Re-invention of Television provides lucid claims relevant to those who study television in a transnational, post-digital era. It also provides valuable syntheses of history and theory relevant to television’s evolution and intersection with larger political, economic and cultural discourses, particularly in regard to the role that US-based media conglomerates play in non-US contexts. … This is merely a starting point, however, towards considering the myriad ways in which television is being continually shaped, understood and re-invented.” (James M Elrod,Critical Studies in Television, Vol. 15 (1), 2020)
