I experience this phenomenon on a less immediate time scale: in the days following a new episode of Breaking Bad, etc, there is discussion and camaraderie with other fans. With the "binge-only" model of House of Cards, that same social experience is not possible.
- slig 12y ago> With the "binge-only" model of House of Cards, that same social experience is not possible. Maybe that's why they're releasing just one episode/week of their new TV series "Better Call Saul".
- ColinCochrane 12y agoI think that's because Better Call Saul is originally broadcast on AMC, which airs it weekly.

- bluthru 12y agoNetflix needs to release batches of episodes every Friday. Over the course of a weekend people can watch 4 episodes and then chat about them on Monday. A little space and anticipation is a good thing.
