Why We Derive Comfort from Rewatching Familiar Things
- bell-cot 2y agoSo...Hollywood has turned into a mediocre sequel factory because we're craving comfort?
- ziggyzecat 2y agoI don't and never did. There are 4 shows that I rewatched some time after because I was drunk a lot. Once I stopped drinking, I barely watched anything at all. I was deriving comfort from the buzz which made Hollywood bearable. But then again, I was a drunk, so maybe I was just projecting my own inadequacies and "unbearability" onto an industry and jobs that have a higher margin of error than any other, luckily with zero consequences.
