YouTuber Mark Rober is getting a Netflix series

Mark Rober, a former NASA engineer now known for his science-focused stunts he publishes to more than 70 million subscribers on YouTube, will launch a competition show on Netflix in 2026. Rober will also bring “some of his most beloved, ambitious, and informative experiments to Netflix later this year,” Netflix says.

The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this year that Netflix had talked to Rober. According to that article, Netflix has also had discussions with the creators at Dude Perfect, a channel with more than 60 million YouTube subscribers, about a new series. And earlier this year, Netflix brought videos from Ms. Rachel, known for her videos for toddlers and early education, to its platform.

The push from Netflix into bringing on YouTube creators follows the success of MrBeast’s Beast Games game show on Prime Video. That show debuted last year and quickly became Prime Video’s “most-watched unscripted show ever.” It has been renewed for two more seasons.
