Is Streaming Culture Making Us Less Patient With New Shows?

These days many people drop a series if the first episode doesn’t hook them. Are we losing the ability to enjoy slow-burn stories? How many episodes do you give a show before quitting? Does weekly release pacing help build hype or frustrate viewers?

I don't think so. I think that's more of a problem with people being anxious and impatient. It depends on the person. I don't feel like I'm becoming more impatient because of streaming.
