SINGAPORE - Netflix has released the list of its most popular shows in Singapore and only one programme in the top ten has Singaporean or Asian content.
Street Food: Asia did have its critics, though, with many Asian online commenters giving it flak for pandering to Western audiences by romanticising poverty in places such as the Philippines, and for its intrusive focus on sob stories about people rather than on food. The 2019 list also shows that viewers here care little for prestige shows such as the Oscar-tipped mob movie The Irishman or drama Marriage Story, or even middlebrow crowd-pleasers such as the biographical series about British royalty The Crown.
Singaporeans went for what Netflix, in announcing the list, called"feelgood flicks", heavy on comedies, fantasy, romance and action.
