Ummm…excuse me?! You had me until that point. Then you lost me.
Modern TVs fascination with having a whole “season long” episode that requires viewing all in a row is not better.
I would rather, and usually do, select a random episode of TNG, Quantum Leap, A-Team, Simon and Simon, X-Files, etc… where they have an hour long adventure, then have a new one the next week. You don’t need to worry about binge watching to “catch up”; just any random episode is a self contained story that you can enjoy and then get out. And sometimes the occasional two-parter.
“Mostly.” :-)
You’re talking to someone who owns all of those on Blu-ray and eagerly watched all of them each week back in the day (except Simon & Simon). And I could easily nominate probably 10 more off the top of my head.
In fact, I’m currently doing a full series rewatch of Quantum Leap. Nearly done.
But you’ve got to admit that for every excellent show there were a dozen terrible ones that are utterly forgettable. The bar is on average higher these days. Or rather, it was maybe a decade ago.
Watching x-files atm, I started last year in November and I’m still only on season 9. Amazing show
