Comments on: How Netflix Will Use Big Data to Push House of Cards http://gigaom.com/2011/03/18/netflix-big-data/ Mon, 20 May 2013 07:17:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: N.

If it were that easy we would see more hit shows. The problem is the data is in the rear view mirror. And the next big hit is out the windshield.

Red flags go up when they tout big names in a new tv show. Don’t think they have a good track record.

Still love the direction. HOpeful for the new show. Netflix has spoiled us.

And for the record I like AMC’s tv production direction. They are doing higher quality shows for much less than the networks.

Our family has 3 different NetFlix boxes in our home and usually will rate most of the shows we watch. Giving a show or movie a 5 star rating usually helps us to find new movies/shows that NexFlix has ‘Recommended’ to us. Interesting to read how they are using those ratings we submit.
