(My experience working on this indie animation project)

That's absolutely genius! AND they keep 100% creative control. What a relief

[JoyceW-Art]

I was really worried when I started this short, but I'm happy to hear that they get most of the benefits and none of the disadvantages from having it on Netflix.

[LucyLoud_Fan]

Yes, because now more people that don’t use YouTube can now experience this show. And this can open the gates for more Indie Animation on streaming services.

[chesceaktv]

Hey at least they'll post on YouTube cuz not all of us have netflix, based move glitch

[TeenyTiny]

i think it’s awesome! the show gets more exposure but they still have control! it’s a huge step for indie animation

[TundraCrow]

I feel though that with the first episode having over 345Million views on it that those on Netflix who would see it have already seen it since it would be quite rare that a persons has Netflix but not a youtube account.

But hey, any additional eyeballs and viewer numbers are still good.

[Immortalized-lightz]

This is such a good change for indie animation in general
let em cook fr 🗣️🔥

[Thegamerjjggez]

Well yeah it’s a good thing, more people get to watch indie, the makers have full control, they get recognized

[ReiseLukas]

So if the darkness pacifies the Abstracted does that mean all the Abstraced Cain throws in the pit are all calm? Maybe there's a way to un-abstract them.

Hopefully this will enable them to make episodes more quickly, due to a bigger budget. Though I don't want them to come quicker if it means they decrease in quantity lol

[jetboy]

This isn't new netflix use to pick up online animations all the time like barbie life in the dream house it was a YouTube only online show and then Netflix picked it up and put it on their streaming service

[andresbravo]

This was Pure Genius of how Glitch Productions made a deal with Netflix.

[AIcube]

Здраствуйте, в конце стрима вы сказали что можете сделать фидбек для тех людей, что хочет развивать свои истории. Если так, то можно ли подобное обсуждать с кем из вами в личке в данное время?

[KboGamez]

I don’t see TADC IN Coming Soon on Netflix. How do I view the page?

[Hipuppy]

It is great that The Amazing Digital Circus came to Netlfix as this is changing indie animation forever, and will go down in history.

[Itsmemelon]

The fact that this thing got on Netflix before Alan Becker is crazy

[busybeebo]

Imma be honest, this sounds pretty good. Not only that but for some reason I know some people who have Netflix but don't use YT. At least with that I can fixate on it with them!

[tackyoptic]

kinda insane that they're allowed to cross-post and worked it out so that Netflix couldn't stick their grubby thumbs into their digital pie

[FionaThorny]

It is, in fact, a good thing because this means that more people will consider watching the series when it comes out on Netflix. :)

[Zachregalado]

I don't care what people say i think that's a big step for indie animation
