2015 proved to be an excellent year for original programming on Netflix. (Jessica Jones, Daredevil, and The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt are particular favorites of mine.) It doesn’t look as if 2016 will be any different, as Netflix is continuing their strategy of attracting and retaining viewers with a buttload of original programming.
BGR:
Looking ahead, the TV-minded folks over at Exstreamist recently compiled a list of all the new Netflix originals coming in 2016.

Netflix is spending a large amount of its considerable war chest on original programming, in 2015, Netflix aired approximately 320 hours of original programming, three times the amount shown in 2014. 2016 will see the streaming service offering more original programming than any other content provider.
