Ive been putting off watching it. The original was on Netflix and dropped all at once. No one seems to do that anymore

Yeah because bingewatching meant that people would unsubscribe after a week, now if they watch weekly they stay subscribed for longer

I guess when Netflix started doing it they were the only game in town so people were less likely to unsubscribe

It was also a point of difference for them to do it. So people talked about binging shows and Netflix, but not the individual show so much. They want water cooler talk as well as keeping subscribers longer.

Water cooler talk was 90s marketing and no longer relevant

Based on releasing TV shows weekly, which we are now returning to.
