Netflix to Scrap Binge Model for ‘Between’
March 9, 2015
Netflix is scrapping its popular binge-viewing model, where it releases an entire season's worth of episodes in one sitting, at least for one upcoming drama. The streaming service will release episodes of "Between" on weekly basis beginning May 21.
The drama is a coproduction with Canada’s TV network City and streaming outlet Shomi; they're releasing episodes weekly to stick with the Canadian scheduling. Series star Jennette McCurdy tweeted out the trailer for "Between", which focuses on a town that gets quarantined after everyone over the age of 21 is killed by a mysterious virus.
