There is a change, similar to how streaming has changed pop music. Current tv/film is much less suspenseful, much more boring and less funny, due to a perception that audiances are fickle, that they are not comitted and will too easily switch to another stream. And producers are working too hard not to offend paticularly sensitive audiences, those ready to start twitter wars over the slightest issue. It all adds up to dull entertainment.
- itsoktocry 3y agoWhat is "current tv"? How are you measuring "suspense"?
- sandworm101 3y agoSuspense does necessarily mean cliffhangers. The time between a joke start and punchline is getting shorter. Look at Friends or early BigBangTheory, not the highest calibre of entertainment but they had many jokes that were setup over seasons. That isnt a thing anymore. Everything must be packaged up in a single scene. Modern shows are just dull, taking forever for anything to happen due to all the re-explaining (Mandalorian). That isnt suspenseful, just slow.
- PrimeMcFly 3y agoThese differences are in your head. If they are not, they are the result of TV evolving as it always does, but it hasn't been a negative evolution by any stretch of the imagination. To agree with the sentiment "there are no good TV shows anymore" is pure nonsense.
- PrimeMcFly 3y agoThere is no change, and streaming hasn't changed pop. Taylor Swift is no different from her equivalent 20 years ago. There is just significantly more content, and so people draw incomplete conclusions and make assumptions. Nothing new.

- sandworm101 3y agoSwift is actually fighting the trend. For instance, many of her tracks start with a second or two of silence, something considered very bad form these days. When you are at the top you are above many rules.
