Midnight, shmidnight.
This year it’s possible for you to celebrate as a family and still have time for a parents-only party with a whole new set of New Years Eve countdowns on Netflix designed for preschoolers, tweens and everyone in between.
The streaming service conducted a survey via SurveyMonkey from Dec. 4 to 15 which found that 97 percent of 9,000 parents would be spending the holiday with their families; nearly half of the parents from the U.S., U.K., and Canada said they would have a fake celebration around 9 p.m.
Last year, Netflix offered one fake countdown video, featuring King Julien fromMadagascar.
Though it doesnt provide ratings for its programs, Netflixs director of consumer public relations Jenny McCabetold MarketWatchthat the number of people who watched the special was enough that we expanded it this year and went with six of our originals.
