To have the opportunity to see a high-fidelity but true-to-composition version would really pique my interest. I guess managing and serving two different versions probably isn’t straightforward, but I believe Disney already does it with The Simpsons, so perhaps one day there will be a ‘remastered’ original cut.
- treis 6y ago>I’ve never seen the show but admit that old SD programmes tend to fall down the list of shows to watch. I feel this has a lot to do with the ~20 min episode + cliffhanger format. It's a pretty striking difference to the Netflix/HBO shows. Those are generally longer and rely much less on cliffhangers. Plus, less "in case you missed last week, let us explain again" type dialog and scenes.
- xnyan 6y ago>"in case you missed last week, let us explain again" netflix, amazon and etc (even self-hosted solutions like plex) often have "skip the intro buttons" which I think is a good solution to the problem of complex plots and non-binge watchers. If you're watching a complicated show and you're not watching episodes in a fairly tight timeframe, it can be tough for some to keep all the plotlines straight. Let those who want or need it have the 30-60 second recap plus mood-setting intro, but let frequent flyers cut the line with the push of a button.
