Part of the point of streaming shows is to eschew the "traditional" television model right? So what's this "New episode available Friday" crap lately?

I'm looking at you Mrs. Maisel.

Definitely not marvelous.

Amazon has been a mix for a while at least. - the wrong element Feb 19, 13:31
at least Vox Machina did a 3 at a time. -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 13:28

Streaming networks have been seemingly proving that it helps build legs for shows. - Beryllium Feb 19, 13:25 5
- I think it totally helps a whole lot with people talking about shows. - i.b.! Feb 19, 13:41 1
  - I like what Amazon was doing with The Expanse, dropping three episodes and then releasing the rest weekly -- nm - Beryllium Feb 19, 13:47
- I thought that weekly made sense for another reason. - the wrong element Feb 19, 13:39 2
  - Maybe but people willing to go to that much trouble are also willing to wait until all the eps are available, sign up for a month, binge and cancel. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Feb 19, 14:40
  - a mix - I’ve gathered a lot of people subscribe to binge watch shows after they’re done or at least have entire seasons ready to watch. — nm - i.b.! Feb 19, 13:44
