As much as I adored that show, the amount of time it took to produce the original movie (5 years) and how long it took to produce the first season (undisclosed, but ‘Awhile.’) it is honestly a wonder that they got the budget even to do the first season. Amazing TV though, felt just like the movie.
Agree. But Netflix does like to throw money around. Also it was nominated for an Emmy.
I read that it all comes down to how many people watch it when it’s launched, if it doesn’t go in the top ten watched then the lose confidence in it.
Yes, because in this fast paced business, there is no second try or slow burn. Next week, the show will be forgotten already.
Even though everything the make stays available for ever unlike in the days of broadcast tv when something was on tv once a week for an hour for 6 weeks and that was your shot. It’s mad
Yes, the content is there in the wastness of the Cloudspace. And nobody is watching it. Thats the nature of a Subscription driven system. The Content itself doesnt matter. What matters is, that there is Content so that the people keep the Subscriptions alife.
