  • You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    Hot takes about the failure of Quibi are so bizarre to me because, like...from the moment that Quibi was announced, any normal consumer who heard about it knew it was a stupid idea and would be doomed to failure. It's only people who are way too deep in the entertainment industry who have any reason to think Quibi's failure was any more complicated than the simple reasons so many people made fun of it when it first launched.

    This. Like, just make a regular series for Netflix or Hulu or, if you're just going to do short skit-like stuff, put it on YouTube or something? Making it subscription-only is just fucking stupid.

    The weirdest thing is no one brought back old-timey serials always ending on cliffhangers for it
