I think Quibi did a lot wrong, but I do think there's some truth that the ubiquitous "traditional" TV segment is just waiting to be disrupted. I don't sit down to watch shows for 30 minutes. Sometimes I'll binge for 2 hours and get 4 different rising-action-falling-action cycles and 4 different cliffhangers trying to keep me on for the next episode, which I was planning on doing anyways. Sometimes I'll watch for 45 minutes, get halfway through a second episode but have to shut it off for one reason or another, and when I come back the next day I feel disoriented because the plot cycle is built to assume an uninterrupted segment. I don't think the solution here is 10 minute episodes per se, but I think the flow of storytelling in modern TV series is waiting for some innovation to bring it to the 21st century. A great example of innovation in storytelling is the Witcher 3. Everytime I boot the game up, during the loading sequence I get a 15 second voiced over "recap" where Geralt informs me about where the main storyline is and what we need to do next, whereas in traditional TV segments I'm given a recap every 30 minutes of progress regardless of where in the show I start and stop watching.
