Excellent. Do more wide releases, please.
No, you *can’t* just do one a year. *Cliff Booth* and *Ray Gunn* deserve it too.
>In 2023, “Suits” became the most popular streaming title in the U.S. for 12 consecutive weeks — 12 years after it first aired. To date the series has generated over 450 million views on Netflix.
>After seeing a new place in a movie or TV show, people are 2.4 times more likely to say that country is their new top travel destination. As an example, 38% of tourists mentioned Netflix’s “Emily in Paris” as one of their motivations for visiting Paris.
Those aren’t particularly big “cultural boasts”. Apple could claim that everyone wanted to go to Florida after watching Bad Monkey.
Suits isn’t the first show to find new life on streaming, though it was indeed driven largely by Netflix (Comcast desperately tried to cash in on it by plastering Suits all over Peacock in a “See we have this too! Actually we made it!” campaign that amounted to little, before doing the spin-off that flopped)
