The success of its original series House of Cards and Orange is the New Black have established a brand for the streaming service, putting it in a good position to bring Netflix to an even larger chunk of the world than the 40 countries that it already streams in. While the company does not release official ratings on the its original series, it has deemed both House of Cards and Orange is the New Black “successes” and renewed each show for a third season, despite rumors to the contrary earlier this week.

Orange is the New Black‘s cult status runs much deeper than just through U.S. culture – its second season the most watched programming across every single Netflix region. Many even returned to watch the comedy series’ first season, said Hastings.

It was every bit the global media event we had hoped for… Reflecting the increasingly global nature of the Netflix service, we now have original series in production around the world, involving some of the best storytellers working in television and film today.
