Netflix bosses Reed Hastings and Ted Sarandos are weighing in on the recent spate of executive exits at the streaming service. After promoting former local language originals vp Bela Bajaria to global TV chief last month, the company said goodbye to three high-ranking execs: English language originals head Cindy Holland, drama exec Channing Dungey and comedy vp Jane Wiseman.

Global streaming giant Netflix may have added fewer subscribers during the third quarter than forecast after an early-year coronavirus pandemic-driven growth spurt, but several analysts on Wednesday raised their stock price targets on the company, telling investors to look beyond the quarterly figures. Before Wednesday's stock market open, the stock was trading down 5.5 percent at $496.62 as of 8:25 a.m.

Todd Spangler NY Digital EditorNetflix bid farewell to several senior programming executives in recent weeks — and the company’s two co-CEOs, Reed Hastings and Ted Sarandos, maintained that the turnover is business as usual for the streamer.In September, Sarandos named Bela Bajaria VP of global TV, while VP of original content Cindy Holland was given the “Keeper Test” after 18 years at the company. Other exits: Jane Wiseman departed after a little over six years as VP of originals and head of comedy, while Channing Dungey, VP of original content and head of drama, left two weeks ago and was just named chairman of Warner Bros.

Dade Hayes Finance EditorNetflix Co-CEOs Reed Hastings and Ted Sarandos tackled a range of topical issues as they offered context for their less-than-expected gain in subscribers during the third quarter.During their quarterly earnings interview posted to YouTube, Hastings was asked by moderator and Barclays analyst Kannan Venkateshwar about how the lack of a Stranger Things-type blockbuster affected the subscriber showing. The increase of 2.2 million subscribers was below company and Wall Street forecasts, and reflected a “pull-forward” in the first half of the year due to COVID-19.“It’s just a little bit of math, Kannan,” Hastings replied, showing his assertive engineering nature.

Elaine Low Senior TV WriterChanning Dungey, who less than two weeks ago left her post as vice president of originals at Netflix, has been tapped to succeed Peter Roth as chairman of Warner Bros. Television Group when he steps down in early 2021.“This is a homecoming of sorts for Channing, who was a production executive at Warner Bros.

Naman Ramachandran Netflix comedy executive Jane Wiseman has left the company after just over six years as vice president of originals.“I’m grateful for all that Jane has contributed during her six-plus years at Netflix, from building a talented creative team to bringing our members such successful series as ‘Grace and Frankie,’ ‘Ozark,’ ‘Dead to Me’ and our adult animation slate,” said global TV vice president Bela Bajaria. “We wish her well for the future.”A comedy veteran, Wiseman was previously senior vice president of comedy programming at Chernin Entertainment.

Cynthia Littleton Business EditorThere aren’t enough hours in the day for Ted Sarandos to watch every program on Netflix before it premieres on the streaming behemoth. And he’s okay with that.On the latest episode of Variety’s podcast “Strictly Business,” Netflix’s co-CEO and chief content officer discusses how the company manages the incredibly high volume of original content produced in multiple languages for its astounding 193 million subscribers from more than 190 countries.“It’s not unusual for shows to come on Netflix without me having seen any of it,” Sarandos says.

Odds are, unless you’re an avid film fan that pays attention to international cinema and early film festivals such as Sundance (basically, people who regularly read this website), you didn’t really know much about “Cuties” before the controversial release of the film last month. The French film about a young girl and her dance troupe ignited a social media firestorm before it was released thanks to Netflix’s poor marketing decisions and a rise in right-wing-based conspiracy theories about pedophiles in Hollywood.

Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos has brushed off a Texas grand jury indictment of Cuties (Mignonnes), French director Maïmouna Doucouré's indie film that has generated controversy on the streaming platform for its depiction of prepubescent girls. "Frankly, I'm surprised there hasn't been more discussion about the First Amendment implications of this film.
