"Pending" vs. "Ended" Discussion
Since the discussion above got a bit long and the points are scattered throughout, I thought it might be helpful to make a new section (as suggested by Abyss Taucher). Maybe no one else will agree with my stance (and since I said I won't argue this anymore right now, I'll try to avoid participating in the discussion myself), but I do think there should be a more formal discussion about what to do if a show has no definite information regarding cancellation or renewal. Based on what's been discussed so far, here's what seem to be the options:

Option A - Treat "Pending" shows as "Ended" one year after the release date of the last season. This avoids leaving shows as "Pending" for an extended period of time when doing so may be unnecessary, but also intentionally takes on the risk of having inaccurate information. It sounds like this is what's currently being done.

Option B - Treat "Pending" shows as "Ended" after the later of either one year after the release date of the last season OR one year after the last indefinite information regarding renewal (as in, anything from an official source - such as the creator or Netflix - which implies that renewal is a possibility, but doesn't confirm it, would reset the "Pending" period). This avoids leaving shows as "Pending" indefinitely, and will likely have the same result as Option A in many cases due to a lack of news. Like Option A, this still intentionally takes on the risk of having inaccurate information once the period has run out, but unlike Option A, it avoids the higher risk of inaccurate information present when there is some (sourced) reason to think that the show may have been or may still be renewed. I assume there could be some downside to this option specifically, but I don't think any was really discussed above - the only response amounted to the fact that it wasn't the way it had been done in the past. The only shows that I personally know would fit into this category at the moment are Master of None and Neo Yokio (even ignoring the existence of the special), but there may be more and it could apply to others in the future.

Option C - Don't ever treat "Pending" shows as "Ended" unless there is definite information indicating that they have been cancelled. This avoids intentionally taking on the risk of having inaccurate information at all, but instead risks leaving shows as "Pending" indefinitely.

Option D - Do something else entirely. Any suggestions welcome.

And as a separate but related point for discussion, in the event that a show is renewed for a special, but there is no definite information regarding any renewal beyond that, AND either Option A or Option B is being used (since it would be irrelevant in the case of Option C), here's what seem to be the options:

Option 1 - Treat the special in the same way as a season in regards to resetting the "Pending" period. This avoids saying that a show which has a special upcoming, or which has had a special recently (and for which there may thus be some reason to think it could be renewed further) has "Ended," but may extend the period unnecessarily if there ultimately ends up being no further news, and may seem inappropriate if you think the fact that the special is listed separately means it shouldn't be considered part of the show. I think the only show which would fit into this category at the moment is Neo Yokio, but it could apply to others in the future.

Option 2 - Don't reset the "Pending" period because of a special. This avoids the possibility of unnecessarily extending the period, but means saying a show has "Ended" even if it's explicitly known that there will be a special (which seems inaccurate to me, but others may disagree) and increases the risk of having inaccurate information regarding future renewal as well.

(Sorry that this ended up being pretty long itself, but hopefully the organization helps, at least...)

 * Option A, Option 2 (provided the hypothetical special is listed separately on Netflix). Option B is perhaps logical, but very impractical. U-Mos (talk) 06:39, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

Ottoman Rising
I would say that "Ottoman Rising" most likely isn't a Netflix Original, because "STX has retained first-run distribution rights in China and Turkey, with Netflix in charge of the rest of the global launch." Since Netflix is in Turkey I think it should be billed as a exclusive. Maybe a co-production, but i couldn't find anything about that.

About the "Netflix Originals" External Link
It seems that the URL https://www.netflix.com/originals does not link to the comprehensive list of all Netflix Original content present on the platform any more. I think the link (and the External Links section) should be deleted.

The Cuba Libre Story/Four Seasons in Havana
Both these series were listed as "n/a" under original channel in the Exclusive international television distribution section, an impossible situation. As my previous ask yielded no information, I've moved them to co-productions with citation needed tags - listing the networks that IMDB lists as production companies. Couldn't see any other way of fixing blatantly incorrect information, as I can't find any sources to prove either have ever aired outside of Netflix. Additionally, Four Seasons is available in New Zealand additional to the three countries mentioned in the source, so there may be more to figure out there. It would be wonderful if anyone had or could find information to clear this up and make sure these shows are listed correctly. U-Mos (talk) 00:32, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

New Format?
Would it be better for the page to be organised by the former and current programmes? "Former original programming" would include all shows that have ended. The tables are rather extensive and I think it'd be better if they were organised more practically. TheMysteriousEditor (talk) 13:19, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Disagree. There's no difference in access between shows that have ended and those in production, unlike on linear television. Years started might be a better point to split tables off. U-Mos (talk) 01:57, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

Not sure, it’s an interesting idea, and I agree that the tables are rather extensive but I don’t know. Would need more discussion. TheMovieGuy (talk) 04:35, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

Canceled vs Ended
This has been on this users mind for a while. I’d like to differentiate in the tables between series that have been canceled and series that have ended. For me, the difference is that shows that have ended have a conclusion - an ending. Series that have been canceled - don’t have an ending, they have been cut short. There was want to do more, or else it would’ve been called a miniseries, but the viewership didn’t add up. For example, look at The Get Down and A Series of Unfortunate Events. Both are listed as ended, which is technically true, however, the difference here is that only one actually came to a conclusion, the other was just cut off. I think its a distinction worth making in the tables, which have ALL series listed as ended if they are no longer producing new material. I think it’s a disservice to the successful and unsuccessful series to list them both as having ended. The truth is that some have ended and some have been canceled. I don’t know. This is just something I’m thinking. I get it if it’s not something others agree is worth changing but i wanted to bring it up for oeace of mind, at least. Abyss Taucher, Armos, Alphius, Iceandsnow7, Landingdude13, Elainasla TheMovieGuy (talk) 04:46, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
 * In theory I think it is an interesting idea and would be useful, but in practice I think it simply can not be done. The editors would be required to know the circumstances that ended every single entry on this already massive and ever growing list. - And that is not even adressing the fact that it can be debatable if a show had an conclusion or was cut short. Daredevil for example was reported as canceled (as it is the case most of the time), but it could be argued pretty convincingly that the ending of the show was a conclusion. Abyss Taucher (talk) 19:55, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I have to agree with Abyss Taucher on this. In most cases, a determination of "canceled" vs. "ended" would be too subjective, and it would probably constitute original research, too. On a sort of related note, I'm not sure why Neo Yokio is marked as "Ended" again when it's been less than a year since Pink Christmas, but I won't push it. Alphius (talk) 22:04, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

Sci Fi Section?
Because the categories are getting so bloated, maybe we should consider new categories. I think Sci Fi could work given that there's already some shows that meet this category under the Drama section, and there will surely be more in the future. Thoughts?Jaydangerx (talk) 01:27, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

Fork?

 * Would a split happen on 5 year intervals? Or by genre?--Fradio71 (talk) 09:09, 5 January 2019 (UTC)


 * I would prefer a split on genre, and perhaps the section Children and family could be moved into its own list? --Thornstrom (talk) 14:53, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

Can we revisit this, please? This list is too long. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 17:59, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes please. Way too long, becomes a nightmare to even load the page. I agree with that splitting it by genre would make the most sense. Children/family is one option, though I was thinking, similar to the Template:Netflix original current series, splitting it by live action and animation. –  Broccoli  &#38; Coffee  (Oh hai) 17:45, 8 June 2019 (UTC)


 * If the list were to be split (and I’m not necessarily favoring that it should) I think the best way would be to split out the “Exclusive international distribution” section, leaving this list to focus on Netflix commissioned series. -AnonWikiEditor (talk) 22:12, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I think this would be a good idea, because global original programming can be 100% complete and accurate, but I doubt the Exclusive international distribution part will ever be with so much ever-changing data. — Thornstrom (talk) 18:28, 18 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Or maybe a split on shows with/without a release date (move upcoming to its own page)? Thornstrom (talk) 11:43, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

How about dividing the page based on show status? If it is ongoing or pending, we say it is current programming and that is one page, if it is canceled or no news after one year about renewal, then we move those to past programming page. I know that for streaming TV current and past programming are kind of out of scope categories as in network TV, since even canceled programs "stay on air" but this is my proposal. To divide it kind of like the NBC programs page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.160.110.4 (talk) 09:58, 23 June 2019 (UTC)


 * I would prefer to keep the list as it is now, and not divide it on show status. But maybe it could be a good idea to emphasize the status a bit more by coloring the status column with red/green depending on status? Thornstrom (talk) 11:40, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
 * If you do colour code make sure to pick carefully so that it accessible for those with colour blindness. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 12:05, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it needs to be color AND text Thornstrom (talk) 13:30, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

IMO, genres can be subjective... or sometimes a work is both comedy and drama. What about animation? That's not subjective, right?, so perhaps we should fork out animated content regardless of intended audience (children/family vs. adult). Just an idea, but I feel strongly about splitting this list up in some way. Just image how it'll look in a few more years... --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 23:02, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm leaning on supporting this. But I guess animation and live-action gets more and more blended for each year, so that might become a problem too?Thornstrom (talk) 14:13, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Bonding seems to be gone from the service
Bonding seems to be gone. It is hard to tell if it is gone from all regions of course, but if nobody is reporting that regions X still has it in the next couple of weeks, I think we should remove it or start a section for that kind of content. Abyss Taucher (talk) 20:39, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I can confirm that it's gone from Sweden too. But a search at unogs.com says it's still available in Israel. Thornstrom (talk) 22:27, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the info. Since it is an American series (not a co-podruction with a tv station from Isreal) afaik that should mean that Netflix still has it as a full original at least in some regions, hence we can leave it. Abyss Taucher (talk) 23:17, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Bonding seems to be back (it must have been a bug). Armos (talk) 10:53, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

Completion status of a show (concluded/abrupt)
How about adding the way a show was ended to the status column? Example: Orange Is the New Black had a planned final season so it has the status 'Ended (concluded)'. Santa Clarita Diet was canceled with a cliffhanger episode so it has the status 'Ended (abrupt)'. Sense8 would be a bit difficult. Maybe 'Ended (concluded with a final episode)'. Any thoughts? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MostlyOnTheRun (talk • contribs) 12:24, 22 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Oppose It has been discussed before. While there are definitive examples, too many are completely subjective. -Vrobowp (talk) 15:49, 22 January 2020 (UTC)


 * I just think that it would help the people which are looking for shows worth watching to have that information. Currently countless shows are released each month from severeal networks and streaming providers, and a considerable amount of them ends with a cliffhanger or just no conclusion of story arcs at all. And I think in most cases the viewers of a show will agree wheather it has an ending or not. If they are particularly fond of that ending is a whole other story, of course. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MostlyOnTheRun (talk • contribs) 15:51, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
 * For the reason pointed out above by Vrobowp we can't have something like that on Wikipedia. See No original research. Abyss Taucher (talk) 23:27, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

Former programming
El ministerio del tiempo should be on this list. I think it's been pulled from Netflix in most regions now, but see here for evidence that it was considered an Original: https://web.archive.org/web/20200113084119/https://www.netflix.com/ca/title/80064235.

The same goes for The Expanse, though I don't have a link for that right now.

Literally every other Wikipedia article I can find that lists networks' programming includes former programs, and I see no reason why this should be any different. This article is obviously meant to be comprehensive, and removing them from the article effectively removes an important historical component of coverage of the article's topic. If they're no longer available in any regions, I'd suggest adding a new "Former programming" section to the article and including them there, along with anything else that's in the same situation. (If they are still available anywhere, then they should still be in the main programming section, just with a note to indicate where they're available.) Alphius (talk) 02:20, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Changing "Foreign" Language to "Non-English"
I've changed the two references in titles from "Foreign Language" to "Non-English" for four reasons 73.254.89.77 (talk) 21:54, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) Netflix, although headquartered in the US, is a global company operating around the world.
 * 2) The world "foreign" presumes it is foreign in relation to somewhere, which is indicative of systemic bias.
 * 3) The term "foreign" in this context is very Americentric/Anglocentric.
 * 4) The article text uses the term "non-English", which is more appropriate.  It is only the titles that use the term foreign.
 * I think the logic is that it's foreign relative to this english wikipedia page. -Thornstrom (talk) 22:59, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I understand. However, people from all around the world use the English Wikipedia, even in countries where English is not the primary language.  Further, English is spoken in many countries as either a first or second language and none of them is more "foreign" than any other. Imagine, for example, an Indian reader, who reads and writes fluent English, being told by this Wikipedia page that Hindi is a "foreign language".   This kind of terminology implies that English is somehow normative while "othering" anything that is not English.  That's exactly what systemic bias is.   "Non-English" not only avoids all that but is more descriptive to boot.  Win-win. 73.254.89.77 (talk) 23:17, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Support. Concise is better. Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 23:21, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Support if we make it very clear what counts as 'A Netflix Original series' since many shows (The Good Place, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, Dirty John, Derek, Good Girls, Star Trek: Discovery, Stateless, Titans and many more) are marketed as a Netflix Original series here in The Netherlands and many other countries. Similarly, Little Fires Everywhere is branded as an Amazon Orginal here in the Netherlands. For many of us in this discussion, this may be clear that the above shows are just acquisitions with the 'Original' branding attached to the streamers name but I think that for many others, this will not be the case. That's the reason I want to be upfront about this. If we eliminate the 'Exclusive international distribution'-heading, the page becomes much smaller. However, I do believe co-productions (The Last Dance, Anne with an E, The End of the F***ing World, Dracula, etc.) are notable to be mentioned in the article as Netflix (partially) funded the series. The HBO article also mentions co-productions. Perhaps we could expand the intro (currently: 'These shows had their original production commissioned by Netflix, or had additional seasons commissioned by Netflix.') with Shows marketed as Netflix originals in other countries than its country of origin are not listed in this article. Co-productions, however, are listed in this article. Virin1009 (talk) 19:19, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Support. I echo the above points. – DarkGlow (talk) 11:15, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment: If the list will be only for original productions, where will the productions that were acquired by these networks/platforms be? And I mean series like All For Love. On the other hand, I do not understand why lists are not created by country, for example for Netflix. In the United States there are too many series produced by Netflix, just like in Latin America. &#8212;&#x202F; Bradford &#x202F;&#128172; 01:17, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Homemade: film vs series
I get the thinking behind putting "Homemade" on this page, but Netflix lists it as a film. As far as I can see that is accurate because it seems to be an Anthology film, not a series devided in episodes. Abyss Taucher (talk) 22:49, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

List of Netflix India originals under Hindi
I guess I could also post this directly on the page in question, but I see all the Netflix programming pages as kind of one thing when it comes down to it. Do we really need this sub page? As far as I can see the information on it is already present on the respective pages, which makes a specific List of Netflix India originals page redundant, imo. You made it,, so I guess you would want to take part in this discussion. :) Abyss Taucher (talk) 09:35, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

The reason I made a separate article is because with time more local content will be produced by Netflix(India) which will make the list longer and tiresome for reader. The article also gives a list of movies and stand up while this page is all about series. SoulEditsx (talk) 12:28, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

Separating Ongoing and Ended shows
Since the lists for each genre are getting too long, why not categorise the ended shows as a separate section on the page.

 * I support this. Netflix releases shows at a very high volume. They will have a massive list by the end of say, 2021, and the page will become much too long. Maybe another page? It would just be a copy and paste on a new page essentially. --Jonathan Joseph (talk) 03:11, 15 August 2020 (UTC)


 * I would rather have a different solution to indicate more clearly which shows have ended or not, like table row background colors or something -Thornstrom (talk) 14:43, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * We could also consider having an ended shows section at the bottom of the page, much like the pages for the broadcast/cable networks do. --Jonathan Joseph (talk) 21:38, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

This is a notice that there is a draft for Sneakerheads (TV series) at Draft:Sneakerheads (TV series) until such a time that it is ready for inclusion in the mainspace. All are welcome to come help nurture the article's development there. — Young Forever (talk)   15:12, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

Ended Shows Section
Hi all, this possibility has been briefly discussed before and I wanted to create an official section to discuss it. We all know Netflix (and all other streaming services such as Hulu, Amazon, etc) release a large volume of original scripted series every year. Almost ten years into their launch of originals, the scripted shows table is getting quite long. A lot of the shows are ended and no longer producing episodes. With cable networks and broadcast networks, we have a section on the page for former programming. With how long the pages are going to get, what does everyone think of creating an "Ended Shows/Former Programming" section for the service (and other streaming services)? --Jonathan Joseph (talk) 19:54, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I think whether the shows that are still on the service are truly "Former programming" or not could be debated, but I do think a "Former programming" section should definitely be created for former originals that are no longer on the service at all - things like The Expanse and El Ministerio del Tiempo which were (in my opinion) improperly removed from the list. And on a note related to your suggestion, I do think that separating stuff that's ended and current/upcoming shows could be a good option for a split of the page whenever we decide to do that. The "Former programming" section I mentioned would be moved to be a section on the "List of ended Netflix original programming" (or whatever it would be called) article if that was done. Alphius (talk) 01:02, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Maybe former programming is the wrong word due to the reasons you mentioned. Maybe it would be titled something like you suggested as in Ended? I really like the idea of even a separate page for the ended programs as well. I just feel like with the volume of content they release, and most shows only lasting a few years, the page is getting too long and a bit hard to read as well. Is there a place we could get more insight on this situation from fellow users so we can see what is the best course of action? --Jonathan Joseph (talk) 18:29, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Sections that come under "unscripted television"
I propose to use a new layout for the "docuseries", "reality/unscripted" and "talk/variety" sections like so:

Variety
(to see what it would look like with tables, see the section on the HBO Max page)

All of these are subgenres of "unscripted television" and "unscripted" being an extension of the "reality" genre (in what is "reality/unscripted") isn't exactly correct. Also "talk" is a subgenre of "variety" so it isn't needed in the section heading. In fact if you go on the Wikipedia page "unscripted television" it takes you to a disambiguation page with "reality television", "documentary television" and "improvised situation comedy" (something like SNL). These are some thoughts I had, especially after the Emmy's on Sunday because I'm pretty sure these would be similar to those categories (I think "reality" is split into "structured" and "unstructured" and instead of "docuseries" it's "non-fiction program". Also before it was split in 2014 there was an award for "variety program"). Just wanted to run it by you guys to see if you had any thoughts. It's not exactly a major change but it is a bit different and I wanted to see what people thought before I did this to other articles. Apd9696 (talk) 12:52, 22 September 2020 (UTC)


 * Support. I think this is very sensible and makes the table more organized, so I already implemented it as a quick win. If anyone objects, we can revert. Good idea, btw! Picsovina (talk) 14:44, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

Splitting the page up
This page has become ridiculously long and it appears Netflix won't be slowing down any time soon. I think it would work best if the page is split into numerous pages. I'm sure there are various ways that can be accomplished. Thoughts? Samurai Kung fu Cowboy (talk) 16:21, 3 October 2020 (UTC)


 * I proposed this about two months ago and unfortunately we can't seem to get enough people to respond to discuss the move. What's being talked about is making a page for shows no longer producing new episodes, or a section for these shows. I completely agree with your sentiments, though! We just need several more people to provide insight and their thoughts so we can garner a consensus and make the move. --Jonathan Joseph (talk) 22:26, 3 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Makes sense. Well I certainly agree with you. Personally I think this page could be split in to at least four pages. Samurai Kung fu Cowboy (talk) 23:37, 3 October 2020 (UTC)


 * I agree with you both, this page is way too long. There are multiple ways of going about this but in my opinion I think either creating a new article for ended shows (like List of programs previously broadcast by NBC) or a new article for upcoming programming are the options that make most sense. Both could be problematic though, as with ended shows we use the 1 year rule for a lot of them to assume they have ended, leading to possible misinformation (I guess this is already a problem but it will be much more difficult to move entries between different pages than to just change them to "renewed"), and with upcoming programming would the new shows that have release dates be on this page under an "awaiting release" section of the table like they are now or would they be on the separate page? Leaving them out on the article for upcoming programming would be misleading. Apd9696 (talk) 08:35, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree as well that it is probably time for the split now. The easiest would most likely be to do what the film page does for organisation and just use that for the spilt. the film page is devided in 2010 and 2020 content. If we do that we can leave everytihing as is. We just need to copy part of the page to new one for 2010-2019. This one could become 2020-2029, we just need to change the name space to List of Netflix original programming (2020-2029) or something like that. Abyss Taucher (talk) 05:36, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I think having a page for two different decades of programming could get confusing for people looking for current programming. Personally, I think the best option would be what Apd9696 suggested. With almost all linear TV networks, there are separate pages for past programming. With how many shows Netflix ends (and has ended) I think it would be safe to do this. If there is a show that has not been canceled or renewed officially, we could just leave it as pending until we get an official answer - as most of the time, we may eventually get one. Of course we could also consider moving certain programming sections to their own page - such as foreign language originals, among others. --Jonathan Joseph (talk) 18:33, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I see where you are coming from, but the decacde split is much easier to do and I don't think it will confuse people all that much if at all. We can pleace a link to the other part of the page at the top of each one, just as we already do since we split of comedy specials and movies. The decade will also be clearly stated in the title of course. I am not really against the other option. I just think it creates a lot more work. Abyss Taucher (talk) 04:04, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Would the decade split really make much of a difference, since most of the shows currently on the page were released in the 2010s? -- Calidum  18:03, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I believe so. The split should move enough for the cms to run faster enough and the pages to load faster. At the end of the day that needs to be tested of course. But that goes for all versions of the split. Abyss Taucher (talk) 20:25, 10 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Right now I'd go with the majority and split it in to current and former. If we can agree on that, I believe it's the best start. From there we can possibly split foreign language, co-productions, upcoming programming and maybe more. Also maybe on decade depending on what can be agreed to. But I think the best start is by former and current because most people are agreeing to that right now. Samurai Kung fu Cowboy (talk) 02:23, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I am okay with that. It is worth noting, though that if we do a current/former split, that means that we will have to do another spilt eventually, because former will become to large pretty quickly without one. One reason I like the decade split better is because it creates a fixed numbers of entries for every former decade. Abyss Taucher (talk) 02:36, 11 October 2020 (UTC)


 * I am okay with former-current split. Also one unidentifiable IP keeps separating non-english unscripted shows on this page which I reverted due to lack of consensus. I like the idea though of splitting all non-english programming (scripted and unscripted) into a separate page, also splitting upcoming and co-productions into their separate pages. Lets go along with it. Picsovina (talk) 06:41, 11 October 2020 (UTC)


 * So is it safe to begin making the page split? Do we have enough of a consensus?--Jonathan Joseph (talk) 03:52, 14 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Sounds like a consensus to me. Samurai Kung fu Cowboy (talk) 23:02, 14 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Yup, lets get to work. I have just one suggestion: lets keep this page, and create new ones for List of Netflix current original programming and List of Netflix former original programming and then we can keep the current page as a collector page with links to the other two pages. Picsovina (talk) 20:04, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I feel that would confuse people. Frankly, it confuses me. :D So the old page would not get new content? Or would it be run together with the other two? Lets make a hard cut and just split the page. Also, I would go with List of Netflix current original shows and List of Netflix former original shows (or something like that), because technically List of Netflix original programming is not correct for a long time now, because it doesn't list all programming, only shows. Abyss Taucher (talk) 22:52, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think having three pages would kind of defeat the point and be a little confusing. I agree with the titles for the pages - "List of current Netflix original programming" and "List of former Netflix original programming". I can start working on a draft for the page. --Jonathan (talk) 00:28, 16 October 2020 (UTC)


 * I have created the draft to begin the work. I have created the drama table with all dramas that have ended. Once we get all of the shows that have ended on that page, we can go ahead and remove them from this page. Until we have that page up, we should leave them on this page. You can view that page at Draft:List of Former Netflix Original Programming --Jonathan (talk) 04:40, 16 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Ok, no problem, then for the current programming we need not create a new page, just rename the existing List of Netflix original programming one. Picsovina (talk) 08:05, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

An IP created a post programming secition on the page. Since we are in the middle of creating the past programming page I undid it. If there was any work in progress reason regarding that for the section I don't see, just restore it. Abyss Taucher (talk) 16:11, 17 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Page is ready, I think. At least the main body, minor fixes, changes might be needed, but I think it is ready to go live. Picsovina (talk) 10:02, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree that the draft looks ready now. A couple notes are missing, but then again sometimes there simply are no sources for ending a show. Thanks to everybody, who worked on the page! Abyss Taucher (talk) 18:42, 20 October 2020 (UTC)


 * I renamed page to Draft:List of ended Netflix original programming and submitted the draft. When it gets approved, I will remove the ended shows from this page. Now we just need to agree on a new title: List of current Netflix original programming? List of ongoing Netflix original programming? Picsovina (talk) 20:39, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I personally think that List of ongoing Netflix original programming title would be better, and since there are multiple editors here who appear to agree that this page should be split, forming a consensus. The draft should be moved article space and remove the content from this article (perform the split) without a review. Since there is a concensus and to wait up to 3+ months for an article review, isn't particularly productive. The review process is more to ensure topics are notable and pages are corectly referenced and such. And the draft fulfills these. Terasail &#91;Talk&#93; 11:55, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree that we don't need to wait for review. There is already a concensus and there is no new content to approve anway.Abyss Taucher (talk) 01:22, 23 October 2020 (UTC)


 * ok ,thanks, I am ok with title and I am happy to remove the ended programming from the ongoing page. Will do it later today then. Picsovina (talk) 12:02, 22 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Imo I think current makes a bit more sense becuase that is what is used in the articles for cable and broadcast networks. Since Netflix mostly releases all episodes on one date they're not exactly ongoing because new episodes aren't being released on, for example, a weekly basis (generally we use ongoing to determine this) Apd9696 (talk) 12:13, 22 October 2020 (UTC)


 * That is actually a good point. In that case I will only delete the ended shows and halt on renaming the page yet. Picsovina (talk) 12:26, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

Upcoming section
Firstly, thank you to Picsovina for dividing up the section, I was thinking about this yesterday and I think it's about time this happened because the original table was very long. I would help but then that would just create edit conflicts and I don't want the work and time to go to waste. Just one thing is that I think that some of these projects have not been ordered to series yet and are only in the script development stage. I think it's best that these shows are moved down to a new "in development" section to make this difference clear because it's misleading to say that these in development shows are upcoming when they haven't actually got a formal greenlight. I also looked some other things up and there are some in development titles missing from this page that I will add soon, but I just wanted to bring this proposal for an "in development" section here before I do anything. Apd9696 (talk) 09:39, 22 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Sure thing. I support creation of In development section, most TV and streaming service programming pages have it and it makes sense to separate shows which are already happening from those which only might happen. Picsovina (talk) 10:00, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

Going for it. I also think that we should expand a bit on the tables like it is on the HBO Max page; adding seasons, length and status columns to provide a similar level of information to the section with released shows. A lot of the series orders come with episode counts and rough episode lengths, and we can aldo update the status column with filming information as well as being able to state whether a show is a miniseries. What do you guys think? Apd9696 (talk) 12:08, 22 October 2020 (UTC)


 * If you have the energy and motivation, why not? Go for it. Picsovina (talk) 13:44, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

Page protection
I think it's time we get some protection on this page. Multiple IPs (could be the same person, no way of knowing) continuously vandalise this page, mostly with edits to do with Harvey Girls Forever. This has been going on ever since I joined Wikipedia about 6 months ago and I'm sure it's been an issue long before that too. This vandalism is not only very disruptive but it's now extremely annoying. I'm not sure how this page protection can be applied or if a formal request is required, but I propose we get some form of page protection in the near future. Apd9696 (talk) 17:56, 24 October 2020 (UTC)


 * We really should, this Harvey Girls fanatic needs to be dealt with. Picsovina (talk) 21:42, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

In development section
How exactly is the new In development section definied? Shows that have not entered production yet? If so, I am pretty certain that we don't know the exact state of development for a lot of shows on this list. In my view that makes it next to impossible to properly maintain such a section. Abyss Taucher (talk) 22:33, 5 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Projects that are in development are those that have been announced by a network but are yet to receive a series order. These projects have been bought by Netflix and have scripts being developed. All in development projects are potential but they are included in these lists as they are a part of a network's upcoming programming as some projects are ordered to series in the future. Most similar lists include them so I don't see why it should be any different here. It is also important to separate ordered shows from in development shows because in development projects are potential. With regards to stating exact states of development and production for certain shows, I have managed to do this for the HBO Max page to what I hope is at a good level of accuracy, so if we were to track filming shows (etc) then I don't think it would be too hard; everything's online these days and we need sources to support this information. Apd9696 (talk) 22:54, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the clarification. Imo the line between annoucing a show and ordering it to series is very blurry here, because Netflix doesn't do pilots. As I see it as soon as Netflix orderes a show it is ordered to series. But I also agree with you that there are different stages in regards of that process. Some shows have been ordered to series for years with no visible progress for the general public, so I am not per se against the section. I just think it is really hard to define when it comes to Netflix. That is why I would consider stepping away from it. That needs to find a concensus of course. I would be interested in hearing what others think about the matter. Abyss Taucher (talk) 00:02, 6 November 2020 (UTC)


 * All the projects listed in the section are not pilots but they don't have a series order. When finding this difference you should look out for keywords/phrases in the source articles like "in works", "development"/"developing" or "potential". But yeah Netflix mostly goes straight-to-series on projects, it is rare that projects are in script development like this. However, these do exist as seen by the section so I don't see why they should be ignored. None of the in development projects in the section have any mention of a series order/greenlight so they can't be ordered to series and putting them in tables with the others is misleading as all in development projects are potential. An example of a script-to-series project is Resident Evil, which waa in script development in January 2019 and later ordered to series about 1 or 2 months ago. I'm sure this will be the case for a lot of the projects in the in development section too. If other users have something on their mind about this then you are more than welcome to contribute to this discussion. Apd9696 (talk) 08:08, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

Continuation table is missing lots of shows
I'm too lazy to add them all right now, but here's what Template:Netflix original continuation series has and the article doesn't.


 * 1) Arrested Development
 * 2) The Killing
 * 3) Star Wars: The Clone Wars
 * 4) Trailer Park Boys
 * 5) Star Wars: The Clone Wars
 * 6) Dreamworks Dragons
 * 7) Longmire
 * 8) Black Mirror

 * 12) EastSiders
 * 13) Glitch
 * 14) Mystery Science Theater 3000
 * 15) Slasher
 * 16) Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee
 * 17) Designated Survivor


 * These are all on List of ended Netflix original programming which was made to split ended shows from this article into a new article as before this article was way too long and difficult to read. Only EastSiders is missing from both pages so thank you for bringing this up. I can't right now but maybe later I will add it, but if someone else wants to add it before I do then you are more than welcome to do so. Apd9696 (talk) 08:52, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Lucifer move
Why was Lucifer moved from the Continuations section? Lonniemitchell22 (talk) 16:33, 8 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Because its not a global original. It is available through Amazon Prime in Germany and Austria, so I moved it to the exclusive distribution page. Picsovina (talk) 22:16, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

Castlevania and Blood of Zeus

 * can these really be considered Anime? they clearly have no involvement from Japan in even the slightest sense. additionally, no websites aside from Netflix itself even refer to them as Anime 98.128.229.19 (talk) 19:56, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Anime is excepted as a general style of animation these days. That style orginated in Japan, that is correct and important, but again anime has been adopted enough by the west that it is considered a global art style now. See Merriam-Webster for example: "Definition of anime: a style of animation originating in Japan that is characterized by stark colorful graphics depicting vibrant characters in action-filled plots often with fantastic or futuristic themes". Of course the lines can be blurred here, but imo if Netflix defines these shows as anime we should do that too. Abyss Taucher (talk) 01:35, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

added: redlinked #Docuseries: High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America
This is my first Netflix edit. Sheesh, I'm overwhelmed.

I just added the docuseries below--though I did so sans references--with the following summary: /* Docuseries */ added red linked series to conform with other relinks; added: | High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America | ...

I'm hoping there's a workflow or process--or something else that's documented--as an experienced editor I find the Netflix world very complex and confusing.

Whoops. My edit was just reverted. The Netflix world is very confusing--oops, Now I'm repeating myself.

Seems that this show--that premiered five days ago exists in the List of ended Netflix original programming. Oy.
 * Here's what's been reverted:
 * High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America
 * Docu-series
 * May 26, 2021
 * 1 seasons, 4 episodes
 * 47–59 min.
 * English

Gabby’s Dollhouse
Is there a particular reason why Gabby’s Dollhouse is classified under “Unscripted” and “Variety” instead of under “Animated” and “Kids and Family”? It seems like a mistake. Also given that that series is one of the most popular kids’ shows on Netflix right now it seems like it probably deserves an article of its own at this point.

Arcane as Regional Original Series
I know it sounds odd to you, but can I just moved Arcane into the Regional Original Programming instead? After all, the series was meant to be Netflix Original worldwide, with the only exception is China, which has been released separately. VernardoLau (talk) 05:42, 12 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Nothing odd about that, if its not available by Netflix official partner iQiyi in China but by Tencent Video, then it is indeed a regional original program. I moved it there. Picsovina (talk) 20:20, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Agreed. Would be much clearer. Neejan (talk) 22:01, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

## Episodes / Miniseries vs. 1 Season
Apparently, Netflix started using "## Episodes" and stopped using the "1 Season" thingy for the majority of its "one season" shows. Examples of this is the 4 most recent anime: Kotaro Lives Alone, Thermae Romae Novae, Vampire in the Garden, and Spriggan. The "one-season" shows' Netflix page now lists off how many episodes are in that one season instead of just labeling it as "one season". Are we just going to write it off as a "miniseries" every time? There's no clear indication for most of these "one season" shows, let alone Netflix originals, will have a second season/future seasons before hand.-Prince Silversaddle (talk) 15:08, 18 June 2022 (UTC)

Changing Seasons column to Episode count

Any Confirmation that The Cuphead Show is only getting three seasons?
The articles that were listed as sources only stated that Netflix had ordered a set number of episodes, not that the series would only last three seasons, or the number of episodes they initially ordered (I searched the article for any mention of "final" or "last" and none of those words showed up). This indicates that Netflix could order more episodes for The Cuphead Show, much in the same way that they would order a set number of seasons for Big Mouth and then later reveal that they have ordered more seasons of that show.

Kids & Family
What decides if a show goes here??? Don't really understand why shows like Heartstopper, The Last Bus, and Man vs. Bee are under Kids & Family? I even checked Netflix to see if they were all designated as such, but they don't seem to be. These shows should be moved back to their appropriate sections as either Comedy or Drama MarvelousMusician397 (talk) 03:43, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Ended series - should specials count?
For series that don't have official cancellations, we've been counting them as ended if 9-12 months have passed without a new episode or news of renewal. Currently there's a debate about including Murderville as an ended series, as the last regular episode aired over a year ago, but a special aired a month ago. I don't see why specials shouldn't count for the purposes of determining whether a series has ended or not. Unless there's a specific announcement about a show being canceled, specials are an indicator that the show is still active. Nisf (talk) 15:08, 2 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Oppose: I think this would open a whole new can of worms. While some specials have similar formats as the regular episodes (they are just holiday themed etc.), most do not: they are behind the scenes, making-of, clip show, feature films or interactive specials. And even Netflix differentiates, because some specials actually premiere as episodes of the series (like the After the Altar episodes of Love is Blind), while the one in question is available as a separate entry. I would continue the way the we do it now and not change.Seprentyu (talk) 15:30, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I fail to understand what the format of a special has to do about whether the series is in production or not. Nisf (talk) 19:42, 2 February 2023 (UTC)


 * What I fail to understand is how the release of a special would indicate that a show is in production for further seasons? A special is a one-off thing, it does not foreshadow a future season. Seprentyu (talk) 20:32, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

Should lists of upcoming programs be allowed?
There is a long running discussion on if the list of upcoming programs on this page falls under the no EPGs rule. This is following an update to this page in which the list of upcoming programs was removed citing this rule

It would be good to get additional input: Wikipedia talk:What Wikipedia is not JordanP7893 (talk) 15:47, 4 February 2023 (UTC)

Upcoming programming (Animation/Kids & Family)
Who's the wise guy removing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?!

It's still being worked on at Mikros, you know! 2600:1700:2230:CCB0:2925:1331:2059:BA33 (talk) 02:17, 2 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Provide a more recent proper source and it will be reinstated. Seprentyu (talk) 18:31, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Alphabetization ignoring leading indefinite articles
Tables that are sorted by title should be alphabetized ignoring leading indefinite articles (i.e., starting with The, A, and An.) This not only aligns with the other TV programming pages, but also general English-language publishing standards – see, for example, APA guidelines at https://apastyle.apa.org/blog/alphabetize-nonsignificant-words. Please let me know if there are any significant objections to this proposed change. Nisf (talk) 18:06, 10 August 2023 (UTC)


 * I do object. This would be a very anglocentric move. Or could be perceived as one, even if the intention is not that. Netflix is a global company, servicing the whole world and though most shows have international (English) titles too, some shows deliberately do not. Also even applying this rule as some kind of a compromise to just English-language shows only would feel a hostile, anglocentric move to me, the perception being that people pushing this agenda are trying to exclude the rest of the world. Seprentyu (talk) 18:15, 10 August 2023 (UTC)


 * And I do get that this is the English-language Wikipedia we are using here. Still, as long as there are no Wikipedia guidelines on this to follow (I dont know if there are already, I am not too big on guidelines, I usually leave this to others to enlighten me), I would not force this. Seprentyu (talk) 18:43, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
 * As you mentioned, this is English-language Wikipedia, and I don't think it's "hostile" to follow English-language grammar conventions. Additionally, you can see that the article has a "use American English" maintenance tag (presumably to encourage consistency with spelling, grammar, and date formats). However, as far as I am aware, there is nothing in the Wikipedia MOS that addresses alphabetization specifically. Nisf (talk) 20:47, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Alright, per the discussion at Talk:List of Disney+ original programming, I'm going to proceed with this. Nisf (talk) 17:29, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

Add Luz: The Light of the Heart in Netflix
We can't find the new show that aired on February 7, 2024.

What are we doing? Why are shows like Avatar: The Last Airbender & One Piece in a DUBLICATE "Kids & Family" section? I know why, cause Seprentyu seems to go around making alot of edits, some questionable at that. I edited that section last week with a reasonable explanation, and they just instantly reverted with no explanation. So can someone please explain to me, or to them, what's the deal there? Cause I don't wanna go into an edit war, but I do belive those mainstream shows don't belong in that category, in a duplicate one at that. DCF94 (talk) 21:55, 17 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Bro DCF94, first of all, if you want to make a major change, first reach consensus. I have the right to revert as someone who is defending the status quo and you have the right to take it to the talk page, like you did (sounding very unprofessional and offended though). Secondly and mainly, these shows are in the family category on Netflix. Do some research, look up the history, how we got to have this section on the page, before you go and start calling out people. Seprentyu (talk) 22:05, 17 February 2024 (UTC)


 * And of course, its not a "dublicate". These are live-action Kids and Family shows. The other Kids and Family section is a sub-section of the animated shows. Seprentyu (talk) 22:11, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Ok, I do apologise for the dublicate comment, that was totally my oversite! and also for the animosity, that came out of my history with dealing with vandalism on pages that I contribute, and you reverting it without a explanation triggered that, but that's my issue to deal with.
 * Having said that, I still belive those shows do not belong in that category. I did scroll through the "kids & family" category, and found non of those shows there (not that Netflix is very consistent with how they categories their content), but the most crucial point: One Piece & Avatar are rated "13+", and by the TV rating system & Netflix's own system, those shows cannot be described as a "kids & family" show, and only shows that have a lower rating or "PG" do appear on Netflix's k&f cat.
 * Hope I described better my point, and apologies once again for my behavior. DCF94 (talk) 15:56, 19 February 2024 (UTC) DCF94 (talk) 15:56, 19 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Dont worry about it. Netflix really is inconsistent with categories, they do the same with anime, labelling stuff anime that some people do not consider that, but still its the best we have, because any other criteria for anime or family shows would be arbitrary or spark debate. Its not worth opening that can of worms. Avatar and One Piece are under Family Watch Together TV category by the way. Seprentyu (talk) 16:09, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Oh, I see, it wasn't in the "kids & family" cat., but yeah, I guess Netflix's categorisation is the easiest way, as inconsistent and silly it might look. 23:38, 19 February 2024 (UTC) DCF94 (talk) 23:38, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

My Daemon
Apparently its in the Anime section but while its in the Japanese language its actually from Thailand I am not sure if it belongs in the Adult animation section or the Kids & family section in the animation section Isla 🏳️‍⚧ 20:35, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

How is Heartstopper a "Kids & family" show???
I don’t know how long it’s been there, but why is Heartstopper in the Kids & family section of this page???

It is very much not a kid or family friendly series… it belongs in the Drama category. It’s literally for teenagers. Cqntralls (talk) 19:21, 4 May 2024 (UTC)


 * They’re not listed there as a matter of personal opinion, we’re using Netflix’s categorization. It’s listed under the Family Watch Together TV category. Nisf (talk) 10:51, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
