All I have ever watched which I have mentioned here before is... Star Trek - The Next Generation " " - Voyager " " - Deep Space Nine I tried to watch the following series Enterprise and all the rest but just could not get into them, The Next Generation was the best for me and always will be.

Moderator Tommy 12,613 Posted September 9, 2019 Moderator Share Posted September 9, 2019 Started watching Fargo a few days ago. Still in Season 1, but it's exceptional. Not quite like anything I've watched before. Funny, dark, mysterious.. I really like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think that’s a bad idea honestly and it will keep engagement numbers high. It does, however, stop all the binge watching. I think that's a great move from Netflix. I was lamenting the other day that there won't be another game of thrones level hysteria show because these days the initial buzz fades out and people binge in their own time... I like the communal water cooler gossip nature of tv that used to exist so it'll be good to see how this goes for the new release shows...

I don't have any issues with a streaming service shifting their content dispersal schedule. I think it bodes well for hit shows and allows them to also get better audience engagement. The upside is that users are now going to watch more shows as a result of the wait game period (possibly) and you get to plug a hit show for a longer period as well. The real question is whether an individual would want to keep the subscription active for that long just to wait it out if there isn't enough engaging content.

Started with the 2nd season of 13 Reasons Why but after 30 seconds in I already felt like they're trying to shove their SJW bullshit down my throat, so I went with Fargo. Really happy I did.

Think it’s a terrible idea The binge watches? Yeah I suppose you're right but you also have to take into account that with all these streaming services popping up you have to retain users not lose them. The idea that Disney will be able to yank most of their content due to rights is scary considering how many shows Netflix has with the Marvel moniker attached and they have to diversify. In the end I think they will split it down the middle based on some weird upper-management decision giving users some shows that they can binge watch while others they'll want to run the weekly release to keep the user-base interested. The other chance is that they'll reduce the cost of the service as a result to compensate for what users might think is an unnecessary monthly expense.

Moderator Tommy 12,613 Posted September 12, 2019 Moderator Share Posted September 12, 2019 Finished the first Season of Fargo last night. Soooooo good. Billy Bob Thornton was extraordinary in this show. His character was so intense and unpredictable, loved it. Thornton should have won every possible award for his portrayal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to Drake(and Netflix) for that. The first episode is actually on there tomorrow. The only thing I don't get on that trailer, is what happened to the Albanians? In the last season the Albanians were out to kill them and then it ended on a cliff hanger. Also it may lose some of its true grit realism it had and become more 'Americanised' in this series now that it's produced by Drake. It should still be good and worth the watch though.
