Netflix series about Spotify's origins sees resurgence in popularity
Netflix 's The Playlist, a six-part miniseries fictionalizing the creation of Spotify, is experiencing a resurgence years after its 2022 debut.
Despite initially being overlooked by many subscribers, the show has garnered a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes and critical acclaim for its 'near-perfect' portrayal and critique of the music industry.
Inspired by the book Spotify Untold, the series dedicates each episode to a different facet of the music industry, offering varied perspectives.
Netflix has a habit of prematurely cancelling acclaimed series, including past examples like The OA and Mindhunter.
The recent cancellation of the murder mystery The Residence, starring Uzo Aduba, is highlighted, despite its positive reviews and strong ratings, possibly due to high internal performance expectations.
