According to a recent report on The Verge, Netflix will be removing most of its interactive shows portfolio from the platform by December 1. The streaming platform currently offers 24 interactive specials, but only four of these will remain available after the cut. The titles staying include the most well-known ones: Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Kimmy vs. the Reverend, Ranveer vs. Wild with Bear Grylls, and You vs. Wild. These popular shows will continue to be accessible to viewers. However, other interactive specials based on Carmen Sandiego, Boss Baby and Puss in Boots will be removed. Notably, Puss in Book: Trapped in an Epic Tale was Netflix’s first interactive special debuting even before Bandersnatch became a hit. This move marks the end of an era for Netflix’s interactive content, which the company had once said it would “double down” on. Netflix spokesperson Chrissy Kelleher explained that while the feature had “served its purpose,” it was now limiting Netflix’s shift toward other technological efforts. The Verge report quoted spokesperson Chrissy Kelleher saying, “The technology served its purpose, but is now limiting as we focus on technological efforts in other areas.” Mike Verdu, Netflix’s former head of gaming, previously confirmed that the company wasn’t planning to create any more interactive specials.
