Everything from the Boys, to Marvel shows, to Lower Decks waste so much time every episode recapping what happened previously. We’re watching these shows on demand. If we needed a recap we simply watch parts of the last episode. Binging shows is so normal it’s a meme now.

Do the people making these shows seriously think there’s a possibility of network syndication or something? As if we’ll eventually go back to the network model?

What do you think?

    I presume they do it for the people who don’t binge watch or who end up dropping a show for a while, only to come back and not remember what happened last episode.

    I personally enjoy them considering there are times I watch shows with breaks of weeks in-between episodes and need it. Saves time.
