The rave reviews for MEGA’s series turned out to be no exaggeration with Netflix singling it out as a gem and adding it to the platform. The first Greek series to do so in history.
On the occasion of the series’ world premiere on the platform and its success, Netflix co-CEO and chief content officer Ted Sarandos invited Papakaliatis to a reception in Los Angeles. A coterie of some of Hollywood’s best-known Greek-origin stars, such as John Stamos, Nia Vardalos and Maria Menounos, were also on hand. Αnd of course the MEGA family is proud.
Taking to his Instagram account afterwards, the director and creator of “Maestro in Blue” posted images from the dinner, where the menu included Grecian fare! He also accompanied the pics with his profound gratitude for the series’ “journey” around the world via the Netflix platform.
“Words cannot describe the gratitude and happiness I felt tonight. Thank you Mr. Sarandos and to your wonderful team, for the amazing night. Maestro in Blue is now the first Greek show streaming worldwide on Netflix.”
