Based on Sven Carlsson and Jonas Leijonhufvud's non-fiction book Spotify Untold, The Playlist manages to be a gripping tale of the creation of one of the world's best music streaming services.

Many Netflix subscribers who have watched The Playlist have praised it, with some calling it "quality throughout" and the "best Netflix show in a long while." The drama was released in October 2022 on Netflix and has since captured the attention of viewers worldwide.
The narrative structure of The Playlist is quirky, replicating the reality of differing versions of events. Interviews with many of Spotify's key players add authenticity to the series, providing a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges and triumphs faced during the development of the popular music streaming service.
However, some viewers have expressed disappointment with the controversial ending of The Playlist, which has somewhat divided audience opinion despite overall favorable reviews. Despite this, the audience score for The Playlist on Rotten Tomatoes stands at a strong 85%.
In August 2025, there will be 49 movies and 31 TV shows available on Netflix, including the second season of Wednesday. Fans of Tim Burton's series can rejoice as a third season has been confirmed by Netflix, and season 2 is out on Netflix today.
