I think they’re waking up to the fact that a small number of headline grabbing original commissions doesn’t entitle them to be seen as equals with Netflix. When you go on Netflix everything you see is free to view. When you go on Amazon Prime the opening view looks great until you realise that most of it costs extra. Browsing for ‘included with Prime’ can become a bit of a chore and when you get to it, there isn’t nearly as much there.
But with BSG, Agents of SHIELD, Lost and now Farscape (and, slightly off topic, Glee, which I’m quite partial to) they’re beginning to take the whole box set thing seriously. All we need now is an equally serious approach to original commissions.
