In a new study, Netflix revealed that the pilot of a TV show is rarely the episode that gets us hooked (good to know for those of you who still need a little convincing after the Scream Queens premiere). That may seem obvious to most—but what's really fascinating is that their data reveals most viewers get hooked on a show during the same episode. So what does that mean for your TV future? The company found that 70 percent of viewers who watched the "hooked episode" went on to complete season one or more. To Netflix, this data means the company is on track by releasing all of the episodes at once. Basically, binge-watching isn't going anywhere.
