Popular TV series including "Stranger Things,""Grey's Anatomy," and "The Morning Show" have halted production due to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Over 100 American TV productions have suspended filming so far, according to a Beijing News report.

The entertainment industry has been forced to delay or suspend production over the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Blockbusters like "Mulan," "No Time to Die," and "Fast & Furious 9" have pushed back their premieres, and most theaters are currently closed since public gatherings are being discouraged or avoided, including cinema-going.  

Traditional TV stations halted more productions than streaming platforms – the American Broadcasting Company(ABC) has suspended over 20 TV series.

On the other hand, an increasing number of people are staying home and watching TV shows, which could be seen as a chance for streaming platforms like Netflix.  

"The impact of the COVID-19 has and will continue to take a toll on the global economy until it is contained. But not all markets are equally impacted, and the cloud services and content markets are a prime example," said Michael Inouye, Principal Analyst at ABI Research.
