New York City comedian and filmmaker Mark Malkoff visits Netflix, after accomplishing the challenge of watching over 252 movies in a month. Malkoff was invited to the Netflix headquarters where he received a Willy Wonka-esque tour and one very big surprise at the end.
A tour of the Netflix factory would not be complete without a visit from the CEO himself, Reed Hastings. After watching Troll 2 with Director of Communication Joris Evers, Malkoff couldn't imagine how this day could get any better. The company was certainly impressed by Malkoff's accomplishment in streaming 404.25 hours of content -- from the opening scenes to the closing credits. They surprised the comedian by declaring June 11th as 'Mark Malkoff Day' at the Netflix headquarters.
