Conceding that the transition to video streaming has resulted in a scarcity of available program performance data, Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos told interviewer Kara Swisher during Monday's Code Conference in Beverly Hills that Netflix is going to make an effort to change things. 

“We’re trying to be more transparent with the market and talent and everybody,” Sarandos said. “It’s a big black box for everybody.”

As a good faith effort, Sarandos proceeded to share two charts revealing the top 10 most watched original movies and TV shows appearing on Netflix so far. 

These charts largely contained data already released by Netflix, but put it all in two unified graphics. Even though the presentation was long on sizzle and lean on steak, these graphics wowed the social internet in the late afternoon Monday, with streaming biz influencers falling all over themselves to find smart things to say about them. 

One graphic revealed Netflix's top original shows based on minutes viewed in their first 28 days on the platform. (Again, we already knew Bridgerton and Bird Box were the biggest hits.)

The other graphic presented by Sarandos revealed Netflix's top originals based on video starts (at least two minutes of watching) in the first 28 days on the platform. The titles are largely the same, save for a few exceptions. 

Perhaps more notable, Sarandos said that the Korean thriller Squid Game, which was just released Sept. 17, could become the platform's all-time most viewed show once it completes its first four weeks on Netflix. 

“There’s a show on Netflix right now that is the number one in the world," Sarandos said. "Like, everywhere in the world. It’s called Squid Game. Squid Game will definitely be our biggest non-English language show in the world, for sure. It’s only been out for nine days, and it’s a very good chance it’s going to be our biggest show ever.”

Sarandos also added details on Netflix's decision to take down Chappelle's Show last November, at the creator's request. 

“We did what I felt was the right thing by Dave, and then the rest of the industry kind of followed," he said. "I am betting forward on our long-term relationship with Dave, not trying to arbitrage something from the past. But I would like to make that content available for people and they should be under deals that are constructive. Next week, we’ll put all 108 episodes of Seinfeld on. It’s been incredibly lucrative for all the talent on that show in every form of distribution, and Dave just didn’t have a deal like that in the beginning of his career.”

Sarandos, meanwhile, also seemed to throw a little shade at Apple TV Plus, calling the platform's Ted Lasso an "awards-y" show with a relatively small audience. 

The National Cable and Telecommunications Association has partnered with Re/code, the technology news and analysts website formed by former Wall Street Journal tech journalists Walter Mossberg and Kara Swisher, to program several industry events, including two General Sessions at the upcoming Internet & Television Expo, formerly known as The Cable Show.

Under the agreement, Re/code will program and conduct portions of two prominent General Sessions at NCTA’s 2015 Internet & Television Expo (INTX), in Chicago on May 5-7.  Re/code will recruit panel participants for its segments, and a Re/code journalist will host that part of the session. Re/code will have complete editorial control of its portions of the INTX General Sessions.

 “Our partnership on INTX General Sessions is an ideal opportunity to put Re/code’s stamp on a new and exciting event that is exploring one of the most fascinating trends in modern media and technology – the intersection of Internet and TV,” said Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher, Co-Executive Editors, Re/code and Co-Executive Producers, The Code Conference in a statement.

For its part, NCTA becomes a Founding Partner for two upcoming Re/code conferences, Code/Media Series: San Francisco, on December 4, 2014, and Code/Media in Dana Point, CA, February 17-18, 2015. As a Founding Partner, NCTA will receive conference sponsorship and marketing recognition.

“We’re thrilled that Re/code is joining the inaugural year of INTX as we establish a national platform where the brightest minds and innovative leaders in media, technology and entertainment will gather annually,” said NCTA president and CEO Michael Powell in a statement. “We’re excited that Re/code will bring to INTX its great editorial talent and the journalistic prowess to program fantastic segments for our General Sessions.”

Further information about Re/code’s partnership on portions of INTX General Sessions will be announced in 2015.

The NCTA changed The Cable Show to the Internet & Television Expo in September to broaden the three-day conference to include online video providers and distributors beyond the traditional Cable Show participants. The Chicago show will be the first under the new name.
