Netflix execs have been telling their screenwriters to have characters “announce what they’re doing” so that viewers who have a program on in the background can follow along without having to miss plot strands. There’s barely been any pushback, until now.
I have to admit that they have a point. My wife works 60-80 hours a week and during that time, Netflix or Max’s infinite supply of competition shows is playing. I didn’t understand how or why she keeps them on as background noise until now. They are literally designed to be background noise.
