Don't flame. I was wondering if anyone else has limited time and limited attention span. Do you ever see a NF show and really think it's an interesting topic, but pass because it's multiple episodes? I think I'd prefer then to be 1-2 hours instead because I lose interest after a few episodes.

Thoughts?

I do prefer comedies that are in the half hour range per episode, and drama that are around 50 minutes or less. It's much tougher to stay engaged when episodes are over an hour long, knowing you have 30 to get through.

agreed...i've learned from all the various streaming service that my favorite series are the ones in that 40-50 minute run time range

I basically never watch netflix movies and only the episodes shows for the opposite reason. I want more content.

quibi has 10 minute long episodes

The micro-attention-span generation.

There have been several Netflix documentary series that seemed unnecessarily long. If not condensed down to a 1.5-2 hour standalone documentary, they could have at least been reduced to fewer episodes. Just off the top of my head, the Ted Bundy Tapes, Making a Murderer season 2, The Staircase, and Wild Wild Country all seemed to be at least 2 episodes too long imo.

I won't pass on something, but I will hold off starting a new show I know will get kind of in depth if I'm already watching something else.

Everything else is on hold till we finish Messiah, for example.
