I don't believe this category to be necessary. We don't have categories for networks like Starz, USA Network, the CW, and other networks that produce original shows, do we? Netflix is no different from such networks in this regard. Spartan198 (talk) 00:32, 23 March 2018 (EDT)

We have one for HBO and Showtime as well. It made sense a few years ago when they weren't producing a lot of shows, but they're no different from any other network now. If we're not going to have a NBC or CBS category (and I don't think we should), these should go. --Funkychinaman (talk) 07:02, 23 March 2018 (EDT)
Actually there is one for USA Network I think (though recently made) as well as AMC, but that said I do agree. In fact I kinda thought having these categories was unnecessary even back then - they're certainly quite extraneous now. StanTheMan (talk) 16:13, 23 March 2018 (EDT)
