Netflix refuses weekly release policy
Netflix, which established the practice of binge-releasing full TV series, has stated that it will continue to do so.“We believe our binge-able release strategy drives substantial engagement, especially for newer titles,”Netflix wrote in its Q3 shareholder letter, which was released alongside quarterly results.“This enables viewers to lose themselves in stories they love.”Netflix stated that,
“It’s hard to imagine, for example, how a Korean title like ‘Squid Game’ would have become a mega hit globally without the momentum that came from people being able to binge it,”

The company’s comments came after allegations that leaked on the internet last month that Netflix executives were considering changing their binge approach and releasing blockbuster titles on a weekly basis.
Netflix challenges the streaming formats of other OTT platforms
According to Netflix, the binge-release strategy helped“generate strong interest”in their shows like Ryan Murphy’sDahmer — Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, which is now the No. 2 English original series in the initial 28-day window.
The company included a Google Trends chart that it claimed demonstrated how the ability to watch all 10 episodes ofMonster— all of which were released on Sept. 21 — drove a much larger spike in search queries for Dahmer compared to non-bingeable Amazon Prime VideoThe Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Powerand HBO’sThe House of the Dragon.
Fans are applauding Netflix’s choice to keep the series’ binge-watch style alive and well, with fans sharing the following on their Twitter accounts;

Good. Not only is this their advantage over competition, but most of all stuff like Squid Game, All of us are dead, Dahmer, Lupin, Money Heist or You would never become such monstrous hits if they got released in weekly model.

Although Netflix does release some reality series, such asLove Is BlindandThe Circle, batches of episodes over several weeks. Furthermore, it has separated the most current seasons of popular shows such asStranger Things, Ozark,andMoney Heistto increase user interest and engagement.

Well, we fans are excited to see what further shows Netflix has got for us. So, grab your snacks and drinks, and let’s so go on binge watch journey.
