Netflix Finds 9:00 p.m. is the New Midnight This New Year's Eve

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Dec. 28, 2015 — (PRNewswire) —  Midnight, shmidnight.  This year you can celebrate as a family and still have time for a parents-only party with a whole new set of New Year's Eve countdowns on Netflix designed for preschoolers, tweens and everyone in between.  Kids can pick their favorite character or ring in the new year again and again with countdowns featuring Oona and Baba of Puffin Rock, Care Bears & Cousins, Inspector Gadget, the Project Mc2 girls, and all of their DreamWorks Animation friends including King Julien and Mr. Peabody & Sherman.

According to new research from Netflix, more than half of parents around the world (58%) would jump at the chance to put their kids to bed before the clock strikes twelve on New Year's Eve. With six on-demand countdown specials launching today, you can make 10, 9, 8 or any time midnight. You choose when it's time to say goodnight and the kids choose how to celebrate with their favorite characters:

While 97% of parents across the globe are spending New Year's Eve as a family, how the celebration unfolds varies by region.

No matter where you are, start your party anytime, anywhere by searching New Year's Eve Countdown on Netflix. And we won't tell them it's not midnight if you don't.
