‘Stranger Things 3’ is a subscriber magnet: 13% of ex-Netflix users signing up again to watch show, study finds


LOS ANGELES: Netflix can’t be happy about the looming departures of Friends (for WarnerMedia’s newly announced HBO Max in 2020) and The Office (for NBCUniversal’s service in 2021) – two of the platform’s most-streamed shows. 

But for years, Netflix has anticipated that media conglomerates would pull back their top titles, and the company has been more focused than ever on spending to build up a prominent slate of originals to attract and retain subscribers.
