We are watching The Haunting of Bly Manor at the moment, and I'm not sure if its a creative experiment, or an attempt to just add fill, but OMG, everything is sooo slow and so repetitive. Every scene could be cut in half.
"Content" is to series, movies and films what "grub" is to good food and fine dining. When creators say "content", they in a way degrade the quality of their own work (they should sell it as the equivalent of good food or fine dining, not as "grub"); when those that watch just call it "content" they probably don't have a very deep connection to it: So much better when the viewers come away from something and think of it as a story, and experience, a show, rather than "content".
