“It’s unbearable”: this new Netflix habit annoys subscribers



Netflix: divide and conquer?

Netflix is ​​the undisputed leader of streaming platforms in the world. She has many films and series to her credit that have made her famous, such as Stranger things, The crown, The Paper House, BridgertonOR Emily in Paris.

Season 4 of the latter will arrive on Netflix this summer, but will be divided into two parts. The first will arrive on August 15th and the second will be available on September 12th, almost a month later. A decision that greatly frustrated fans of the showand, more generally, subscribers who ask Netflix to stop dividing their series into several parts, as now happens with the red N platform.

So, in the comments below the Netflix’s Instagram postwhich reveals the first photos of the new episodes ofEmily in Pariswe can read:

No, but Part 1 Part 2 is no longer possible! Will we have Side A and Side B of Part 1 soon?? what is the project ?

Netflix distinguishes you from Disney+ and Amazon prime by giving us the series immediately as a binge watcher, frankly it’s annoying!!!

It’s still unbearable to divide the seasons… it’s one thing that there are fewer series than in the past but don’t do it with every release…

What’s the point of paying for a subscription if you then postpone the airing of the episodes so you can also watch TV?

A profitable strategy for the platform

Dividing seasons into multiple parts allows Netflix to keep subscribers interested and engaged for a long period of time. Instead of releasing an entire season at once, split distribution encourages subscribers to return to the platform to watch new parts as soon as they are released, thus reducing the churn rate. Especially since it’s a safe bet that there will be a cliffhanger, between part 1 and part 2Emily in Paris.

By distancing the exits, Netflix also reduces the phenomenon of excessive binge-watching, where subscribers consume an entire season in record time. This allows them to maintain an ongoing conversation around the series, and therefore remain present in viewers’ minds for longer.

For Stranger things, dividing season 4 into two parts also allowed the platform to broadcast the first episodes in advance, while continuing to work on the last ones. The Duffer Brothers explained at the time that this approach allowed them to deliver episodes as soon as they were ready, without sacrificing the quality of subsequent episodes.
