another interesting take on the inflated popularity of friends/the office/parks and recs and the issue netflix has with its binge model

While Netflix has certainly had success with original programming, by and large the most-watched content has been older, existing TV shows that Netflix does not own. Why? Because it’s comforting. Shows like The Office, Parks and Recreation, and Friends are watched over and over and over again because they provide comfort. They’re the perfect bite-sized snack to consume just before bedtime, or to enjoy on a lunch break at work. Episodes run 22 to 23 minutes in length, and since these shows were created for network television—and in the case of Friends long before DVR or VOD delayed viewing—most episodes offer up a satisfying, conclusive story. This gives the viewer a sense of satisfaction at the end of an episode. You don’t have to watch the next one.
Netflix’s Binge-Focused Content Model Is Why It Lacks Original Series Like ‘The Office’

the bedtime piece is exactly what i said about my viewing of old black sitcoms...i don't think these shows will be the subscription home runs all these services hope for, especially not long term subscribers

I rarely rewatch any HBO shows
I never had the itch to go rewatch Fresh Prince or first time watch Friends
Its the original content that will bring me in and I'm really interested to see how many of those originals will be ready for launch
Original content is where Netflix still has the advantage over all these new pop ups

Shows like Seinfeld, Friends, Big Bang Theory and all that are absolute home runs in syndication and streaming is no different.. Disney+ is going to rely on old Disney animated classics and Star Wars and Marvel movies to jumpstart their service...

Like I said, Netflix has to do better at some point with their original content. They have way too many flops on their record already. It's become a thing now where people see the words "Netflix movie" and are instantly turned off thinking it's gonna be trash... they already have that stigma with their movie lineup.
