Episode notes
Residual Disparity
- Adam Conover received substantial residuals for "Adam Ruins Everything" on TrueTV, a small cable channel.
- His residuals for "The G Word" on Netflix, a larger platform, were significantly smaller, highlighting the disparity in streaming compensation.
Subscription Model Limitation
- Netflix's subscription model doesn't incentivize profit sharing based on viewership.
- This differs from ad-based models where increased views translate to more revenue for the platform.
Hidden Success Metrics
- Streaming services track success metrics despite subscription models.
- Netflix, for example, tracks subscriptions driven by specific shows but avoids sharing this data.
