In response to "Question for SITV people" by Beaker

I've had that conversation a number of times, although not necessarily on the show.

Each service has a release pattern that is best for them. It's clear that WandaVision works better as a slow burn. Their ratings in coming weeks will tell the true story, but I suspect it's going to build exponentially. Netflix, on the other hand, likes the front-loaded "This show is a hit for one week and then it drops off the radar!" model. Some stick around (Umbrella Academy, Bridgerton, Cobra Kai) but most are only a one-week hit and I think Netflix likes that they can say "See! This show was a hit! *whispers* for one week."

Responses:

although Netflix has been doing some of the 1-2 a week method lately (like Sisyphus:The Myth that just came out) -- (edited) - decline Feb 22, 11:17 1
- They're somewhat beholden to their international partners. The new season of the Great British Baking Show was weekly, too. - Mop Feb 22, 11:21
