Hi there ! I run a production company and I can tell you that narrative series have become incredibly difficult to finance in the last 2 years. Platform priorities have changed and so most financing is going to vid /chatcasts nowadays. Hope that helps give some context! But thanks for loving the medium I know a lot of producers who be so happy to see their shows on your list !

Hi Lory, yes that tracks with what I hear and my research tells me. It's a shift and a change....my hope is that there's another shift back at some point, when we all get bored of the chats and yearn for something that's engaging and escapist. Long live longform!

Yes, very familiar with this one. Glad that it's there...feel like it was a few years late to the scene, but love to see shows pop up on there.
