It's odd that they want us to watch these shows right away. Streaming doesn't work like that. Wife and I watch an episode, maybe 2 of a show each night. So it takes us weeks to get through a show season. So we have a list of shows to watch. We will watch a show months after it's been out.

When Stranger Things was a big immediate hit that people binged it broke Netflix. They stopped trying to be HBO and instead treated each show like the lever of a big slot machine.
