I find that I've mostly made up for that part by participating in online discussions.

But that leads to a different problem -- When Netflix drops an entire season of something, I feel like I have to have time to watch the whole thing, or I don't watch at all. Because I don't want participate in the online discussion having seen less than everyone else.

I end up watching the shows that drop one episode a week far more often than whole seasons at once.

I'm not at all sure that dropping an episode a week like Apple TV+ tends to do is a bad thing at all.

Im the complete opposite and never watch anything that is on-going because I hate waiting around for every episode and having series drawn out over months. And even after they have completed there is usually little fanfare or noticed that a season is complete and so it is only a 50% chance I will watch it at all even if I am interested in it because all the talk about it has since died and it is forgotten about because it was going on for months already.

I didn't mind what Andor did as much though for season 2 releasing 3 episodes at a time. If it had just been 1 episode at a time I probably wouldn't have seen it until a year or two from now after all discussion was dead.

    Lets be real most entertainment has a short shelf life. Something gets its 5 minutes of internet fame before the world moves on. Everything depends on the memes and social media buzz.
