Very few of us had a good 2020, but Netflix bucked that trend. It added over 40 million new subscribers, taking the global total to more than 200 million. 74 million people in the US have a Netflix subscription today.

New challenges emerged, too. The competitive landscape is crowded and Netflix needs new ways to keep us all watching.
