Lilyhammer on Netflix: Celebrate the 10 Years of Original Production With the Streaming Giant

Netflix just feels like a necessity these days. It is almost as if we humans
have always had Netflix with us since the dawn of time. Who would have thought
that a streaming company that started making original content just 10 years ago
will become such an important part of our lives? That’s right, we today
commemorate Lilyhammer, the first-ever Netflix Original production, which
kick-started a glorious journey for the company.


NETFLIX CO-CEO TED SARANDOS PENS AN ESSAY TO CELEBRATE THE FIRST-EVER NETFLIX
ORIGINAL

Soon after Netflix announced all its 2022 films
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-first-look-big-movies-coming-on-netflix-in-2022/],
Netflix’s journey of creating original content turned 10 years old. On the
occasion, Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos recently released an essay to commemorate
the series and also look back at the roots of the company. “Looking back,
‘Lilyhammer’ was perhaps an unorthodox choice for our first show. But it worked
because it was a deeply local story that we could share with the world,”
Sarandos wrote. “The jokes and references worked locally and the more universal
themes of the shows traveled perfectly. Since then, we’ve seen so many great
local stories resonate with people in other countries and from other cultures:
shows and films set anywhere and told in any language.”
