While trying to watch Aggretsuko, I noticed that the captions weren’t anything close to what was being said on screen. Their platform is riddled with caption and transcription errors. Netflix took a good first step towards addressing the caption issues occurring within the second season of Queer Eye, but that doesn’t mean their work is done. Note that viewers can also provide feedback directly to us via a tool in the player if you're watching on a web browser.” The spokesperson continued, “We love getting feedback so we can correct these types of issues, so thanks again for raising it.
Truncating the original dialogue is limited to instances where reading speed and synchronicity with the audio are an issue.” “Netflix has requirements for closed captioning to ensure as much of the original content is included as possible. “Netflix invests heavily in ensuring our entertainment is accessible to all audiences and has captioning/subtitling across all content,” a Netflix spokesperson told SELF. They acknowledged that they do sometimes bleep incidental profanity from their unscripted series. Netflix responded on Twitter the next day, thanking him for bringing the issue to their attention and promising to fix the Fab 5’s missing dialogue.
Nondisabled allies like Brown are integral to changing the world. “Deaf and HOH people should have the same experience as everyone else!” he declared. When he retweeted my tweet, he promised he would bring up the caption issue internally the next time he was at Netflix.
My tweet picked up steam and was eventually noticed by Karamo Brown, the culture host of Queer Eye.īrown has spoken out before on supporting disabled people within our culture in April, he committed to captioning his videos on social media for d/Deaf and HOH friends.
