Newsbrief: Netflix is producing a 'choose your own adventure' streaming series for adults after finding success with similar shows aimed at kids

As reported by Bloomberg, the streaming giant intends to create a grown-up series that lets viewers decide which storylines to follow. They'll then be able to go back to the beginning and watch the same show again with different results. 

Netflix previously employed the same tactic with children's shows so its younger viewers could 'play' with their favorite characters. 

Whether or not the format will be a hit with adults remains to be seen, but it's nice to see the company show a willingness to experiment with game experiences on its platform.
