Smaller overall budget. "Management is trying to pay less up front for shows and is quicker to cancel ones that aren’t working "

Posted by: Moviesnob on Jul 22, 08:50 in response to terraformingearth's post Is that another way of saying there will be a budget?

They'll still swing for the fences on a few. Apple doesnt have the same P&L strategies other streamers do because its not their only business and they see the movie buisness as support for their tech business. And streamers don't have the same P&L as distributors who exploit all rights.

Masters of the Air delivered a smaller US audience than House of Ninjas Antibody Jul 22, 06:54

Apple TV+ generates less viewing in one month than Netflix does in one day. Antibody Jul 22, 06:58

Apple TV+ doesn't have enough content as is. I would subscribe every 6 months or so for 1 month and finish watching all new stuff in like Oleg_Max Jul 22, 07:14

Lucas Shaw is a near Rich Greenfield level supporter of Netflix (just to keep that in the back of your head) but still a good read. notfabio Jul 22, 07:44

The shows are well made but they don't have enough content to warrant a monthly subscription. Little variety and only apple produced stuff. {nm} RamsFan2004 Jul 22, 09:08

The nerd in me loves stuff like For All Mankind (flaws and all)/Severance but I definitely feel like I am the only one watching them. {nm} notfabio Jul 22, 09:17

Severance was great but according to the article, they went way over budget. Over $20 mil per episode season 1. {nm} RamsFan2004 Jul 22, 09:21

Yeah S2 has been a nightmare production (I am glad they touched on it) {nm} notfabio Jul 22, 09:47

I was surpised FOR ALL MANKIND was not just renewed but is getting that spinoff? Moviesnob Jul 22, 10:12

Yeah, I am in that club too, the I'll watch it, but it's like a niche of a niche of a niche of a niche notfabio Jul 22, 12:34

truly don’t get why they would care, they’re like Kane pouring his fortune into a newspaper. maybe they’ll go broke… in 60 years {nm} wow platinum Jul 22, 10:44

Its a really bad look that no one watches their content. {nm} Moviesnob Jul 22, 10:58

nobody i know thinks they are very good at marketing the good shows they actually do have, of which there are several {nm} wow platinum Jul 22, 11:13

That makes it twice as worse! and thats why they go through so many marketing heads. Moviesnob Jul 22, 11:56

I think they are the most consistent streamer right now -- it's a huge shame most of the shows aren't getting the viewership they deserve! MiyazakiFan Jul 22, 16:14
