From THR: "Right out of the gate, 3 Body Problem opened at No. 2 on Netflix’s Top TV shows list, which isn’t great"

I love that we live in a world where someone can write that sentence and receive zero pushback from an editor.

No. 2 on Netflix TV for a new IP "isn't great."

Responses:

What was #1? The Gentlemen? - the wrong element Mar 25, 19:06
Yeah, but half the time Netflix tells me their #1 movie is some B-movie from the 90s -- nm - Roger More Mar 25, 15:51 2
- Exactly. I has to search for it cause it I was too dumb to appreciate it. - Pippy Mar 25, 16:35
- For example - #2 movie in Canada today is Shooter starring Mark Wahlberg. -- nm - Roger More Mar 25, 15:53
Damn Cocomelon. -- nm - Dano Mar 25, 15:26
heh f**king amazing, a hard scifi brand new IP no less! "Isnt great." -- nm - Jovian Mar 25, 14:47 12
- Netflix especially has ridiculously stupid metrics for what they deem a “hit” (basically if you’re not binging the whole thing in the first 28 days - hollywood big shot Mar 25, 14:58 1
  - Which seems odd to me. - the wrong element Mar 25, 19:09
- With an additional complicating factor of sinophobia to deal with. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 25, 14:48
- I cant even recommend this to anyone because of how hard scifi this is. -- nm - Jovian Mar 25, 14:48 8
  - it really isnt that "hard" of scifi, and I think people can watch it and just sorta follow and will enjoy it. I mean the Martian was as hard of scifi at times -- (edited) - tRuMaN Mar 25, 15:21 6
    - I’d say hard SCI FI -- nm - Pippy Mar 25, 16:38
    - All I'll say, is if season 2 gets Greenlit and is faithful to the book, it's as if 2001 A space Odyssey an interstellar had a baby together -- nm - Jovian Mar 25, 15:37 4
      - This is not a spoiler. Only trying to state how profound and original the sci Fi concepts will be in a season two -- nm - Jovian Mar 25, 15:42 3
        
        Do you want to know where they almost lost me? Spoils - Pippy Mar 25, 16:39 2
        
        the plot (sorta) of one of my favorite recent book series. - tRuMaN Mar 25, 17:22
        
        Spoils - Jovian Mar 25, 17:20
  - Exactly. -- nm - David Mar 25, 15:10
