Netflix is a provider of on-demand Internet streaming media and of flat-rate DVD-by-mail. Their DVD video rental service offers many commercially available Muppet and Jim Henson home video releases to US customers, and their "watch instantly" on-demand video streaming service has offered many Muppet titles for viewing on-demand; including several episodes and titles not available on DVD or other platforms. Original content includes the Jim Henson Company produced (or co-produced) series The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, Julie's Greenroom, The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell, and Word Party, along with the 2022 film Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio.
Netflix also produces original content for its streaming service, such as House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, The Crown and Stranger Things; plus revivals and continuations such as Fuller House, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Return, Cobra Kai and additional seasons of Arrested Development, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Unsolved Mysteries, and Black Mirror.
