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?
Honestly, the best treatment of this was in the pre-streaming world with the “next time on Arrested Development.”
The running joke is that they would pretty much never happen, except once in a while when they did.
