I feel that having more episodes gives people more time to be with the characters. I was a teen when vampire diaries, supernatural, pretty little liars, and gossip girl were airing and can name SO many characters and fun random storylines in each show. I think condensing those episodes down from 22/24 to 10 or even 8 really cuts out all that bonding (for lack of a better term) with the characters and then the actors themselves. I also really dislike releasing a part 1 and 2 of an 10 episode series because I think that’s really dumb 😂

An interesting example of the ways streaming and regular tv premieres can work is in a comparison and contrast to Craig of The Creek and She-Ra Princesses of Power (She-Ra 2018). Both started in 2018, however COTC got 6 seasons, a spin-off, and a movie, with its final season airing in this year, whereas She-Ra got 5 seasons and ended in 2020, and 2 of those seasons were shortened from the 13 episodes to 6 and 7 episodes respectively. While Craig isn't the most discussed show, there was some intrigue around the Other Side, King Xavier, and the Red Poncho. The first episode to establish the Other Side of the Creek was back in 2018 and the Capture the Flage War (the complete followup and end to that saga aired in 2021).

Big yes on returning to a 20 ep season format for ups and downs. Too short season. 😔
@hecknfrick4236
I really do miss weekly releases. Waiting all week to sit down together and watch the new episode.
@NightStarGamer
I genuinely like that 90s show as a fan of that 70s show. But there are moments in that 90s show like some of the cameos and jokes feel forced, sometimes jarring. But I do see a lot of potential in it. The main cast has been great. They seem to have great chemistry on screen, and I want to see them succeed. I'm also not the biggest fan of how they post seasons in 2 parts, it makes any excitement for a new season fade away. I'd much rather have the streaming service post a new episode a week for a year then post 6 or 8 episodes, wait half a year to a year to post the rest. The great thing with it being a streaming service would be that if you did miss the episode you can watch it at your leisure and if you did prefer to binge you could always wait until the show is fully out.

@~5:05, "I often wonder who That 90's Show is for because it is aimed at tweens and middle and high schoolers." I think you answered your own question, right there, about why That 90's Show isn't on broadcast/cable TV. Basically, because the target audience (tweens and teens) don't watch content (TV shows) that way. I'm not a parent, but I have 5 nieces and nephews aged 4 to 14, and their entire lives the vast majority of stuff they watch has always been streaming. Even traditional stuff like Sesame Street, or Shining Time Station(Thomas the Tank Engine) from PBS, was almost always watched on a streaming service. Again, I'm not a parent, I spend a lot of time with them, but this is still just anecdotal, but I think it's a good guess. Any actual parents out there? I'm curious if this answer sounds legit to you guys. Please tell me if I'm totally wrong too tho.🙃
@TwinRiver100
As much as i liked the episode dumps for some shows, I'm not sure it hits the same way anymore. Also u are right that a lot of them i forget after a few days if ive binged the whole thing after a few days.
@Dave102693
Off topic, but why are spin offs and sequels now called reboots? Reboots are just reimagining of old stories, not an unwanted sequel of a beloved series.
@docjoe86
As a huge fan of sitcoms, especially the cheesy multi-camera kind with the studio audience/laugh track that all the cool kids and critics hate, I am hugely disappointed with what streaming has done to the genre. Streaming has successful comedies, but these are mostly single camera dramadies and not sitcoms. A few streamers has tried releasing one sitcom episode a week, like How I Met Your Father and Futurama on Hulu and the Frasier reboot on Paramount plus, but that has had mixed success at best. (RIP How I Mer Your Father. You deserved better.) If the genre is going to have a future in streaming, I think the weekly model is key.

What annoys me most about streaming isn't the companies but the braindead fanboy consumers who believe in the inevitability of "progress." Who think that we "can't turn back the clock." No actually, we can do whatever we want. Streaming is not a law of physics. It's an economic social construct. Yes it has some upsides, but it's got a lot of downsides too. The binge watching culture has totally destroyed the social side of TV. There's no time to discuss the episodes in between releases. And there's no way to have any heavy mid season cliff hangers or twists without it being spoiled immediately by someone who saw it already and posted online. Streaming has fundamentally changed how stories are written because it's changed how people consumer the media. The medium is the message. Film is different to TV, which is different to books etc. It's no surprise that if you change TV so much it will change how things are written. Personally I think consumers need to wake up and understand that we can't have our cake and eat it too. We can't have high quality shows that run for a long time like they used to, and also want to consume them like fast food. McDonald's and a Michelin star restaurant will always be two separate places. If we want fast food TV we have to put up with low quality. Currently the streamers are trying to give us both and we're ending up, in my opinion, with the worst of both worlds. Tonnes of crap shows they pump out and cancel after 2 seasons. And for anything good they cut the season length way down and leave 2 goddamn years in between releases. This is the worst of both worlds in my opinion and we need to pick one or the other. Personally I prefer the old model because I think TV is best when it's a social experience, not an atomised one where we each watch our individual shows and then briefly agree that xyz show is cool when we meet up. We can't geek out about it because we both binged it at different times and the hype train is never in the same place for us to get on at the same time. Modern TV is such a disappointment. And it's mainly to do with streaming.
@Ireallywouldrathernot
I swear there already was a "That 90s show", like 20 years ago? Have I crossed dimensions?

@winterburden
What 90s show?
@ruininomiya7785
I'm not sure if this is a big factor for the show as a whole, but for me i just didn't really wanna touch that 70s show (used to rewatch it like once a year) after the news broke about danny masterson. maybe i can watch that 90s show in the future but right now i just associate it too much with the whole thing since hyde was my favorite character and a big part of what made the show. it could have been an influence for potential nostalgia watchers or just watchers in general seeing it on the news - but how big that would be... idk. i did just stop bothering with netflix, too. i used to check the releases regularly but sooo many things i liked got axed and it got too upsetting. and browsing it spontaneously is just horrible. with all streaming services really 😭 like wow cool they're giving me 5 categories but they're all having the same shows in it! the fact you have to rely on other websites to check what has been releasing chronologically without missing anything. this is just turning into a rant but like can i please opt for a non algorithm option i just want to browse it like a movie/tv show database. with the option to hide shows without it potentionally meaning I'm not gonna be shown other similiar shows because sometimes it's the little things you don't like. like this isn't youtube this is a curated content library. i think the extra channels that amazon is doing is kind of going into the direction of different brandings but at the price of... well a higher price. it's definitely not the solution i would be happiest with but at lower price points, or with no higher price just releasing things under different lines is a nice idea.
@moustik31
I dont have Netflix and twitter is bust, so this is the 1st time I'm hearing about this reboot.
@randomtinypotatocried
The 80s Show was far worse than the 90s Show
