re: We've Been Watching True Detective Wrong. *UPDATE* Starz to Offer Binge Options.

I don't watch True Detective, yet, but just wanted to chime in on the all-at-once vs weekly debate. I started watching Breaking Bad on NetFlix. I'd burn through a season in about a week or two. Watching the last seasons live sucked. I did the same thing with Walking Dead. I just recently watched Season 5, in about 3-4 days. I would hate watching it weekly. Too much is going on, and stretching it over a pair of 8 weeks of episodes, would have lost something. Even when I had cable and DVR, I would let about 4-5 episodes of a show build up and then my wife and I would pick one to binge watch over the weekend.

I understand the networks like AMC will keep on doing the weekly distribution, but I would hope someone like HBO would be forward thinking and follow the NetFlix model of releasing a whole season at once for streamers. If you are already a subscriber, it is free to stream anyways.

Amazon's original content is like this as well. I have watched about half the first season of Bosch. With NetFlix and Amazon, I like that I don't have to worry about when a show airs. If I want it now, I have it now.
