Hulu says it won't release its new original shows in binge-watch form

Hulu has no plans to start catering to binge-watchers with its original programming, preferring instead to release new episodes one week at a time.</p><p>
“We value the shared experience and the joy of the water cooler that is television,” Craig Erwich, Hulu’s senior vice president and head of content, said on a recent press tour according to Variety. Weekly episodes also allow for a steady stream of fresh content and make it easier for users to discover those original shows in the first place, Erwich said.</p><p>
Hulu’s strategy runs counter to that of Netflix and Amazon, which release entire new seasons of their original shows all at once. While this allows viewers to easily get hooked by watching several episodes in one sitting, the trade-off is that any social media buzz around a show can die off quickly after the premiere.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2960643/streaming-services/hulu-says-it-wont-release-its-new-original-shows-in-binge-watch-form.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
