A web series is a series of scripted or non-scripted video episodes that are released online, usually on a streaming platform such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, or YouTube. Web series can vary in length, format, and genre, and are often produced independently of traditional television networks.
Web series have become increasingly popular in recent years, as they provide a more flexible and accessible way for content creators to produce and distribute their work. They can also attract a younger, more tech-savvy audience who prefer to consume media online.
Some examples of popular web series include "Stranger Things," "Orange is the New Black," "The Crown," "House of Cards," "Narcos," "Black Mirror," "Cobra Kai," "You," and "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel."
