@@BlueSpider7400 more than appealing to the mass, appealing to the right demographics I think. Imagine if Joplin (Sally's show) was mainly appealing to White Men in their 40s who were unlikely to watch anything else the network was putting out, the network might not be super happy

shows that have someone eating dessert in the first 2 minutes tend to do well… the season opens with barry eating a donut

Barry eating donuts in the first episode of season 3, that's why it hits the right taste clusters.

Aaaand I just learned of that...

[@lisac3398]

WHAT?!

[@Mr.Floyd1984]

2:03 Oh God, my blood pressure when she got out of her seat to close the door just so no one would hear Sally making a logical argument. If it was me, I would have gotten out of my seat to re-open the door and continue to yell so everyone can hear me or the very least, secretly record them.

[@YungM.D.]

I think it was because she was yelling a lot.

[@timexpeachtree]

After ChatGPT, it just feels like that was a soundproof room, they didn't want the Algorithm to hear her say it.

[@Xylarxcode]

Pretty sure it's illegal to record someone without their knowledge or approval. You wouldn't be able to use that. At least, I don't think so.

[@Marethewz]

[@cobratime]

the closing of the door was hilarious

[@vlr4631]

I love this exec setting so much. My favourite is "if i could call someone to override this decision i would but i cant because its my decision." Followed by "i know, i was one of them, i guess i was wrong". I also love the manager talk later completely incomprehensible for everyone but the manager who totally got it xDd

[@Coconutyorkie]

The ceo perfomance is brillant

[@shadow_master7303]

It’s like when Disney shortened the final season of Owl House from around 20 episodes that are 20 minutes long each to only 3 episodes that are 40 minutes long each because it “didn’t fit the brand” even though it had high ratings (especially a 100% on rotten tomatoes) and was making a lot of money.

[@mickeymalone7577]

It had strong ratings but not demographics, Disney Channel is for the kids always has been and the mouse intends to keep it that way for the future. Teens and young adults really liked it but not the kiddies.

[@danielgudinojuarez6729]

exactly!!

[@dissraps]

Hight ratings means literally nothing. One person who really likes the show says it's a10/10. Best show ever, I guess? That's not how they make money

[@BlueSpider7400]

[@PlanetXerox]

Sally didn't get the idea that her competitor, a sitcom, tends to have really bad critic scores in it's first season only to improve gradually since (see The Office, Parks and Recreation, Seinfeld, and It's Always Sunny). Sitcoms were always meant to be successful in each way regardless.

[@chrcoluk]

[@ananas7433]

Could you please post the season 3 retrospective ? Some fans of the show don't have access to Hbo in their country and are missing out on bonus content 😕

[@myleshainsworth]

This from a "top agent" in Hollywood, regarding his stable of writers only wanting to work on prestige projects: “I mean, I’m sorry, but people seem to really like Two and a Half Men, and none of my writers want to write that. They all want to write Barry. And you know who watches Barry? Nobody.” Ooof. The Suits are going to use The Algo to drag us back to the era of laughtracked dreck. (From a recent piece in Vulture "The Binge Purge: TV’s streaming model is broken. It’s also not going away. For Hollywood, figuring that out will be a horror show.")

[@crackerjack9311]

Barry was eating an eclair in the opening scene…..

[@masterzombie161]

I’ve rewatched the show and it really dawned on me how doomed Joplin was as a tv show. Not only is it a self indulgent boring drama, but everyone associated with the project is completely self absorbed and doesn’t care at all about the message they want to bring. Just like how a lot of shows are (Velma especially) they pretend to care about their message but completely fail to honor it, and it comes across as a complete failure. Barry is absolutely fantastic at being Satire.

[@thesegastarshow4210]

This scene is so real that it's not even funny, because that is just the reality of the TV industry. They do not care if a show is the greatest or the most offensive piece of fiction ever created. As long as people are watching, thats all that matters. Why do you think Velma of all shows got a season 2?

[@montecristo1845]

Exactly! All of those hate-watching pairs of eyes 👀 were counted regardless of reviews. Meanwhile the graveyard of cancelled shows that didn’t deserve to die grows ever wider and deeper. I can’t remember if it was Oscar Wilde or someone else who said: “There’s no such thing as bad publicity.”

[@danick00]

[@masterzombie161]

Yeah the issue is Sally’s should’ve waited on starting a show when her name was being more famous. She should’ve did movies first until her name was marketable endotoxins produce a show give or take how the algorithm works.

[@JWilliamsLangley]

This show is so good. I'm curious how meta this scene is.

[@posthocprior]

I make algorithms similar to this. I'd like to politely point out, there is no point in having an algorithm that can select for "taste cluster" (very realistic sounding, thank you) that isn't used in the script. That is, the characteristics of a successful script would be dictated and then traditional metrics would be applied to see if it works. This is the opposite of what's happening here. Traditional metrics are used to determine which show to select and taste cluster classification is used to determine if the show is worthy to air. This really makes no sense. But it is good comedy.

Algorithms know people more than they know themselves.
