The era of scripted TV keeps on delivering some truly awesome shows. While many networks produced great programming this year, Netflix has really claimed first spot. The company spent $6 billion on content this year, and plans to increase the spending to an eye-popping $8 billion in 2018. No wonder that the top added series on Soon were almost all Netflix Originals.
This years top “sooned” books consists of both new and old stories. The one book that really stands out from the crowd and sort of have a story for reaching top “sooned” books, is 1984. It actually shot No.1 on Amazon’s best-seller list after an advisor to President Trump used the expression “alternative facts”. The Twittersphere directly responded with allusions to 1984 and New York Times described it as a “2017 must-reed”.
Podcasts are more popular than ever and it doesn’t matter who you are or what your interests are. These days everyone can find a podcast that matches their taste. 2017 podcast trends consisted of personal development, news, crime and conspiracies. If you missed any of these top added podcasts on Soon, now’s the perfect timing to catch up over the holidays!
These are things fewer people added but that everyone LOVED (rated 5/5). How about a perfect brunch in Amsterdam, a guide in personal growth, and some world class cocktails in NYC?
We have found the things that you guys really looked forward to (sort of), but unfortunately these items turned out to be utter disappointments. Well, everything can’t make you jump of joy - here are the biggest facepalms of the year.
New York provides everything from fine-dining to cheap eats. The city could really satisfy every person's desires when it comes to food and drink which we sort of can tell by the list of the top “sooned” food places in NY. It consists of everything from good pizza, colourful cakes and a korean steakhouse.
Being the city with the most restaurants per capita - the highest density in the US - naturally there’s a lot of new spots to keep track of in food-loving San Francisco. There’s lots of newcomers on the list of most “sooned” places in SF.
During 2017 the dining scene in London has peaked. Areas previously lacking spots with decent food are now the destinations for the new food trends. Whatever food you may like, you will probably find it in this list of top “sooned” food places in London, since it seems like nothing really unifies the city’s offerings.
The food scene in Stockholm has seen some much appreciated growth in the last couple of years. Today you can enjoy some truly interesting dining in the swedish capital, from cigarett buts at Punk Royal to French spontaneity at Café Nizza. If you’re a local or just visiting, you too should add these, most “sooned” food spots of 2017 in Stockholm.
When we’re living in an age of nearly infinite supply of entertainment there might be some things worth noticing that pass you by. To make sure you don't start 2018 not knowing what you have to catch up on, we've listed the best, least known, movies of the year.
Data says more than a million words and we found some interesting connections when digging a bit. It looks like people who read Trump’s “Art of the deal” also really love self help books? hmm..
People who read Trump’s Art of the deal apparently Loved LA LA LAND and Self help books
People who liked Hillary Clinton’s book “What Happened” really enjoyed the TV series “Mindhunter”.
However, people who loved the hit TV Series “West World” did NOT enjoy “LA LA Land”.
Sometimes you just want to throw back in time! These are the oldies (though goldies) you revisited in 2017, stuff that was released more than 10 years ago. We love them classics!
