Netflix is launching a new format for subtitles.

Netflix is introducing a new type of original language subtitles. On Thursday, the company announced a new subtitle option: original language subtitles that only show the spoken dialogue. The only option for subtitles in the original language before was Subtitles for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (SDH/CC). These subtitles include dialogue but also audio cues such as [dramatic music swells], as well as names of the people speaking on screen.

However, Netflix has realized that a significant number of viewers watch content with subtitles (fifty percent of Americans do it most of the time) and has decided to offer a subtitle option that only covers spoken dialogue. If you’re curious as to why that might be, just think of iconic performances, such as Brad Pitt’s in Guy Ritchie’s “Snatch.”

Now you have both the CC and the non-CC version.

Unfortunately, this will not be available for older titles, at least not right away. Netflix states that the new subtitle option will first appear on new titles coming to the platform, with the fifth season of You being the first show to receive it.

Netflix also mentioned that, going forward, the non-CC subtitles will be available on all new Netflix originals in every language that the platform offers.
