The rise of different platforms streaming invites Netflix to continue betting on one of its strengths: the creation of its own content. The platform, progressively, continues to advance in offering productions that escape the different most recognized production houses. That decision makes perfect sense, if you take into account the growth of Netflix in recent years and because several of those services that previously produced content to take are now grouping it in their own spaces.
The most recent case is that of HBO Max, which after settling in the United States expanded to Latin America and recently arrived in Europe. A little earlier, Disney Plus had already started its career streaming. Apart from these production houses, there are also other players, such as Apple TV + and Amazon Prime. that, to a greater or lesser extent, also attract audiences and bet on ambitious projects, such as Finch (Apple TV +) starring Tom Hanks.
In this context, Netflix announces new proposals in terms of original series developed in Spain and the continuity of several stories that they have been offering for some time. Beyond the place of production, several of the series mentioned have had a positive impact in Latin America. Attention to the following.
