A new report suggests Netflix viewers aren’t sticking around for Season 2. The bigger issue may be that binge-watching itself is no longer the advantage it once was.
The “airing weekly” and “why bring them up?” are erroneous. I’ve had all of Rugrats on VHS before the idea of streaming was even a nut in the sack of whatever engineer put it together and watched them all. I had all seasons of Pokémon, and as much Dragon Ball as you could buy before YouTube ever posted its first video. These dudes wished they invented binge watching as much as Diogenes wishes he invented public masturbation. But they are all wrong, for some person before we could even write our thoughts down did it all already by watching the birds all day and touching themselves in the open. Theres nothing new under the sun.
I don’t think anyone was dropping entire new seasons of shows before Netflix.
That’s correct. House of Cards was the first. First Netflix original, first full season by season release. It was a bizarre concept at the time.
That’s irrelevant though. You could watch entire seasons of TV shows and series of movies once they were all out on VHS, DVD, or Blu-Ray as box sets.
Lost. Walking Dead. Possibly Breaking Bad.
All three of those shows aired weekly.
You are correct
So why bring them up?
Before streaming there was Blu Ray.
Before that was DVDs.
VHS before that.
Etc etc
Because they do this thing that they’ve been doing for a while where they release the whole show to buy after its done airing.
Which has nothing to do with airing an entire new season at once as mentioned in my comment.
