How does TVI rank Netflix shows?

Every show is scored on the same rubric: Cognitive Stimulation (40%), Educational Value (35%), Craft & Quality (25%). No platform adjustment. The rubric reads which Netflix originals actually committed to structural seriousness and which are commercial-genre fillers.

Why did Baby Reindeer become a cultural phenomenon?

Baby Reindeer (Richard Gadd, 2024) is the rare Netflix miniseries based on the actual experience of its creator (his own stalker case, adapted from his Edinburgh Fringe stage show). The autobiographical commitment is what gave the property its enduring cultural reach and four Emmys.
