I mean, they've reported that they miss absolutely nothing, and the experience of watching a TV show is a subjective one. While I don't mess around with the speed, I haven't seen any compelling arguments that somebody couldn't get it all watching at 1.5x speed.

My argument is that a movie or tv show is an art medium that coincides partly with time, just like music. Listening to a song at 1.5x speed fundamentally changes what you are listening to and is a significant deviation from what the artist intended.

It could still be enjoyable but to say that nothing is lost is wrong.
