Everything from the Boys, to Marvel shows, to Lower Decks waste so much time every episode recapping what happened previously. We’re watching these shows on demand. If we needed a recap we simply watch parts of the last episode. Binging shows is so normal it’s a meme now.

Do the people making these shows seriously think there’s a possibility of network syndication or something? As if we’ll eventually go back to the network model?

What do you think?

    Oh yeah, because everyone will obviously remember what a guy mentioned off hand on a random episode 5 years ago.

    I agree that a “previously on” for what happened the previous episode is bullshit, but that’s almost never the case.
