Netflix put out lots of content. More than 1 show a week. So some of them were bound to feel like CW shows. There are reality shows, like Floor is Lava or Is it cake, for example. There are bad history documentaries that talk about alien stuff that wouldn't feel out of place in the History channel. And good history documentaries that wouldn't feel out of place in old History channel.

Netflix is trying to replace all TV, not just prestige cable TV. So don't expect only prestige HBO / AMC adult drama level stuff from them.
