History

Historical Context

In March 2011 Netflix ordered the political drama House of Cards, releasing all 13 episodes on February 1 2013, the first streaming-only series and proof that binge-release could rival network premieres. That breakthrough spurred a decade of original dramas, so by July 2026 the platform’s second-season launch of Ransom Canyon reflects the same data-driven, all-at-once strategy that began with House of Cards.
