Netflix Boss Ted Sarandos Says the Streamer Can’t Have Too Much Content: ‘People Have Such Eclectic Taste … You Have to Love It All’


Netflix boss Ted Sarandos was speaking at the Royal Television Society conference in London.

The streaming boss made the remarks at the Royal Television Society conference in London on Tuesday morning, where he gave an opening speech before being interviewed by journalist Kirsty Wark. Sarandos, who has been responsible for content at the DVD rental company turned streaming giant since 2000, was upped to co-CEO in 2020. Netflix has massively expanded its footprint in the U.K., both in terms of home-grown commissions such as “Baby Reindeer,” which which won three Emmy Awards for the streamer on Sunday night, Guy Ritchie project “The Gentlemen” and the upcoming Keira Knightley-starrer “Black Doves” as well as production of U.S.-commissioned shows such as “Bridgerton” and “The Crown.” “The Crown” scored one Emmy on Sunday, having swept the board in previous years, with actor Elizabeth Debicki taking home a statue for her portrayal of Princess Diana in the epic drama.
