About 60% of Netflix's global audience watches the streaming service's children and family content. In fact, families are valuable streaming customers because they are so reliable -- and because there is the potential for making eve more money from merchandise connected to shows. "The money that Netflix is showering on children and family producers has disrupted this often-overlooked corner of Hollywood," says Brooke Barnes, noting that "in total, Netflix has spent billions on its children and family push."
