Netflix Is Experimenting With Releasing New Episodes Over a Longer Timeframe
Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) has long resisted the traditional broadcast formula of the weekly release schedule, sticking to its roots of releasing an entire seasons' worth of episodes all at once and encouraging viewers to binge-watch the whole series.
The streaming pioneer now appears willing to at least experiment with other options. In a blog post on Tuesday, the company announced the pending release of new seasons of "two of our biggest unscripted competition series." Brandon Riegg, Netflix's VP of unscripted and documentary series, went on to reveal that company was "experimenting with the release format," forcing viewers to wait for additional episodes to be released.
