    Time to hoist the skull and crossbones again.

    (1) This is why I rarely start shows that aren’t finished. I’ve been disappointed too many times. Which means that even though Netflix, etc, get new content quite frequently, there’s still ‘nothing on’, so it’s not worth subscribing. If artists and viewers want art to flourish, they better support independent media and eschew the big names.

    (2) Any iteration of the entertainment media industry will face the same problem. This kind of cycle is inherent to capitalism. If artists and viewers want art to flourish, they better step up their revolution game.

    (3) The additional problem with entertainment media is that it’s heavily infiltrated by feds and bourgeois and once they secured a monopoly on storytelling (crushing independent services at the start of the streaming boom), they had no more reason to keep TV interesting. They only own and control the industry to sell us shit and feed us propaganda. They can do that with any old rubbish once they don’t have to compete with the creative stuff; and there’s very little creative stuff once all the smaller produces have been bankrupted. If artists and viewers want art to flourish, they better step up their Marxism game and get agitpropping.

    so, will any revolutionary message from Hazbin Hotel (as individualist as it is) will be squashed?

    I was mildly amused at how the first episode of the new season of Black Mirror called themselves out on this.
