Totally disagree, all of my favorite shows would have made terrible movies. Breaking Bad is just barely long enough as it is, trying to compress that down into even a long movie would have destroyed the story.

Yes, but that’s not a Netflix original, and one of the older series

A brief, incomplete list of Netflix series that would be horribly diminished by being movies:

Stranger Things, The Queens Gambit, Narcos, The Crown, basically all of the rest of them.

A complete list of movies that would be worse as series:

Anything by Michael Bay
