Despite being sentenced to ten years in prison for sexual assault, Netflix will not remove Russell Brand's show.
Netflix continues to offer Russell Brand's stand-up special despite his conviction for sexual assault and harassment.

Brand's performance includes jokes about his sexual escapades. A Netflix representative emphasized the importance of subscriber choice in viewing content.
