- Title
Netflix original series, global audiences and discourses of streaming success.

- Abstract
This article examines the discourses of streaming success within the television industry by focusing on Netflix and two of the service's original series: Fauda and La Casa de Papel. Using publicly available secondary data through 2019, this analysis argues the transnational platform's efforts to redefine successful television while maintaining a high level of data secrecy necessitate the discursive construction of a global and undifferentiated audience. Yet, rather than representing a break with the past, the discourses of streaming success reveal Netflix to be a television institution attempting to address traditional industry challenges.
