I wonder if it's not necessarily related to the viewer themselves.
e.g. I could see the following taking place:
1. Biggest action is a user deciding to signup
2. More viewers means more money
3. More money => access to bigger producers/directors etc (e.g. Shonda Rhimes)
4. Because of #3, more users sign up
and the cycle repeats while "leveling up" the stars in step #3.
The negative shows may also be a part of #3 in the sense that directors/producers get more freedom to make what they want
and/or
Negative antisocial shows may generate more buzz which also helps with #1 and the rest of the cycle.
- yters 8y agoYes, they've shown the negative tweets and Facebook posts generate a high level of engagement. I think the same reasoning applies to Netflix. It's like the tech industry is run by frat boys trying to 'neg' the general population, like a dysfunctional relationship where the boyfriend tells the girlfriend she's ugly and fat so she won't leave him.
