Netflix has created us as content locusts.

We consume it instantly then move on to the next thing to consume

It’s a very brief hit in the culture and then gets pushed back with everything else

A recent entertainment podcast was talking about how everyone’s moving away from the one time drop

Said the week to week or 2/week will be the norm and the expect Netflix to follow suit

As a viewer I like having the option to binge or take it at my own pace. Week to week watching seems antiquated to me, but unfortunately most streaming services still stick to that model.

Ironically enough, they may be the ones to succumb to their own model.

Stranger Things & Cobra Kai are the only things I can think of worth watching on Netflix, and it's as expensive as HBO Max, now.

Damn, that's apropos.

Kudos if you came up with that term.
