They spent $2 billion filming 175 different new series and no one watched a single one of them. It's like the biggest disaster in the entire history of media and no one even knows about it.

>$2 billion

Probably more than that, although most of those funds went to imported Haitian pineal glands

Did anyone even get this? Were there even any shows/movies/whatever of interest there? I only vaguely remember seeing ads for this a few times on YouTube and completely forgot about it until I saw this thread.

lol

Do these retards not realize there's soooooooooooo many entertainment options now? Why would they think this would be successful? What's the hook?

new reno 911 season

YOU CAN WATCH ON YOUR PHONE!

They had had marketing and the worst possible laugh date.
+The shows were not pirates yet, so nobody knows if they are good.
They can still get out on top, but time will tell.
It's not like Netflix was popular when it came out

WTF is this shit, a streaming TV service for phones!!! Yikes

Absolute KEK, turns out piracy is the best advertismenet and it's 100% free.

>Were there even any shows/movies/whatever of interest there?
Reno 911 revival
Legends of the Hidden Temple revival
Punk'd revival
Top Gear with Idris Elba
Steven Spielberg Horror Anthology
Maika Monroe waifushit
Annasophia Robb waifushit
Murder House Flip (realtors renovate and sell houses where people were murdered)

I scrolled through the 150+ shows they're making and those are the ones that attracted even the slightest attention from me, although I guess what people would actually watch is Judge Chrissy Teigen

It is with something new. It's bad for things already known

aren't all the episodes 10 minutes long?

so it's a subscription based web series collection that you can only watch on your phone?

lol was that literally the hook? People can already watch everything on their phone. So stupid.

this mite b cool

>It's not like Netflix was popular when it came out
Netflix was unique when it first showed up. Now there's a thousand Netflix clones.

>Fierce Queens, a documentary series commissioned by the BBC Natural History Unit, which shows natural history from a female perspective

>Spielberg's After Dark, a horror series written and created by Steven Spielberg. The show is unique on the platform in that it can be viewed only at night.
I hate Spielberg, he's really the killer of cinema

They should have been smart enough to give the service a website. I'd watch these mini shows for like $5 a month if I did not have to do it on a phone.

The thing is no one streams shows like this actually. No one likes trying to watch a TV show on a phone in a public place, people would rather scroll Facebook or some other social media.

Yes. They think they're being revolutionary by filming their show simultaniously in landscape and portrait mode. The directors of photography working on their show must want to kill themselves.

many forget this, but netflix was already an established video rental business that drove blockbuster to bankruptcy

OH NO NO NO WE GOT TOO COCKY QUIBROS

They should just cut their losses and sell their shows and technology to netflix

They should order a season of Twin Peaks

Blockbuster drove Blockbuster out of business.

>filming 175 different new series
Is this an exaggeration?

>Annasophia Robb waifushit
user, I don't know how to tell you this...

>Punk'd revival
What the fugg. I'm nostalgic for the 90's/early 00's as much as the next guy but this should stay there.

>the initial order is for 8,500 episodes across 175 different Quibi-exclusive series
Keep in mind the size of the money pile they threw here, they were trying to astroturf their way to becoming a media juggernaut overnight

all they are doing is some pan and scan you can pull a 9:16 frame easy from 4k footage

yeah there were a lot of factors, but the convenience of netflix helped kill it. you can still even sign up for their dvd/blu-ray mail rental service

"Like Netflix"
"But shorter"

>15 minute episodes you have to watch on your phone
>the clip they released didn't even make me crack a smile

I'll just watch old episodes, thanks.

But now it's got Chance the Rapper!

So is QB. You may not like it but it is. It's not standard TV shows, but more interactive shit.
No it didn't lol. Netflix was dying like any other dvd chain but they got lucky with trying something new.
No, most of their stuff is just semi adverts semi we shows from different websites and brands. There are only a few actual shows.
