We have binge releases and weekly release schedules, even biweekly nowWhy hasn't someone made a suspense/thriller or action series that takes advantage of streaming and has a release pattern that counts down.For example a if 10 episode season that releases today>First 3 episodes on 11/20>4th episode on 11/27>5th episode on 12/3>6th episode on 12/8>7th episode on 12/12>8th episode on 12/15>9th episode on 12/17>10th episode on 12/18As the season gets more suspenseful, there is less time between the episodes, allowing for the discussion to get crazier while you inch towards the reveal
>>216049227This format would work for a 10 episode romance horror/thriller that releases in February
>>216049227because for normies, a week for discussion and suspense is a good amount of time. why increase the frequency toward the end? end with your friday, monday, wednesday, thursday end run, you are going to get less people actually watching it "live" as they have other plans at least one of the evenings. That would be my counterargument, but maybe someone will try it one day and prove me wrong.But I still think you are not going to make the experience better compared to a 3 ep start, weekly releases and then a two parter finale.>>216049287yeah, maybe when it is cold and not much happening
>>216049227Episodes can release whenever you want and be any length you want.
>>216049315I feel like you'd want to only do it for something thats intense, maybe even counting down towards something like the episode release is doing I don't think you'd want to do something like that for a procedural show, or like a sitcom.
>>216049355sure, it makes no sense to play on the suspense dial for something that has no suspense. and if your goal is to optimize social media discussion buzz, you need to give them something to discuss. Like True Detective for example. But again, I don't see the appeal of cutting down discussion time.
