How do you know they aren't doing that? No matter how good your pre-production process is for finding good shows, ultimately, it's the eyeballs and box-office that decide it. There is no formula to differentiate a hit from a bomb. What complicates things is that season 1 of the show may have been a hit, but subsequent seasons are not. There's no magic here. At some point, you are going to be cutting something to make room for something else. >NF claims to be data driven I'm sure it is, but there is no formula that you can use to figure out what is going to be a hit and what will be a bomb and lose you money. If there was, you wouldn't see companies spending hundreds of millions on movies that end up bombing at the box-office. >The efficient solution is to produce consistently great content. This is like saying the 'efficient solution' to investing is to invest in companies that give a good return and not invest in companies that lose you money. Pretty sure everyone wants to produce great content. |
