Abstract

This chapter conceptualises the Netflix audience as transnational audience. Transnational audiences have traditionally been conceptualised via social media and online communication. Yet, due to Netflix’ discursive links with television, its audience’s engagement is hardly the same. Television studies have previously conceptualised audiences as national audiences, even if these have become increasingly fragmented since the TV II era. Yet, Netflix’ audience is clearly transnational and fragmented across borders, rather than within them. Though Netflix’ audience can hardly be thought of as an audience of fans, fan studies offer concepts to understand audience formations around specific texts or platforms rather than as a national audience. Thus, this chapter considers how the Netflix audience can be considered as a transnational television audience.
