>>108254979You say you're "impatient" but bomb/binge format means you actually have longer hiatuses between seasons, so that logic doesn't work. I've seen people lamenting the end of "event" television with the end of Game of Thrones, and all I can think is, why? There's no "rule" that says shows have to be shitted out all at once now. But that's just how Netflix does it and they're making a lot of money so that must be the "right" way, even though it leads to lower viewer engagement and a greater number of lower quality shows in the end. And it doesn't give lesser-known, but high quality shows the chance to slowly build a following.
I don't know. I guess I'm just getting old (29 years, ancient I know). But I can't stand the binge/bomb format. In the past the social aspect, having a week to talk with people about them most recent episode, was often almost as enjoyable (if not moreso) as the show itself for me.
