    That would be better, but just seems more trouble than it’s worth for the quality. People ultimately do want to watch good well written shows. Apart from those who don’t!

        To be fair to them even though the jokes were poor they did their homework with the physica.

          The writing in general was poor. Sure the physics jokes were accurate, but none of the characters were believable as people.

            I have a PhD in physics. You would be surprised at the kind of people I know. They are definitely exaggerated caricatures, but a lot of what the characters do does actually remind me of people from my departments.

      Overall yea, but there’s a thing about how the more niche and specialized content is to a person’s interests, the more they’re willing to sacrifice on quality. So I think what will happen, because this will also reduce production costs so much (in theory), is we’ll get these incredibly specific shows made for smaller and smaller target audiences. I’m hoping this ends up generating some hilarious content that just seems absurd to people who aren’t targeted. Instead of catering to universal human experiences it will be like, “a show centered around a support group for people who love black licorice, and the challenges they face in their relationships with people who hate black licorice.”
