Everything from the Boys, to Marvel shows, to Lower Decks waste so much time every episode recapping what happened previously. We’re watching these shows on demand. If we needed a recap we simply watch parts of the last episode. Binging shows is so normal it’s a meme now.

Do the people making these shows seriously think there’s a possibility of network syndication or something? As if we’ll eventually go back to the network model?

What do you think?

    I don’t binge. Can be helpful if it’s been a few weeks since I last watched one, although if it’s been that long and I can’t remember what happened then it’s probably not that good a show anyway.

    Maybe have the recap as a separate bit that plays only if you’re not?
