You don’t have to wait for Hollywood to change. Demand better by changing how you consume.

Stop using “Watch Later” as a graveyard. Every quarter, clear your queue. If you haven’t watched it in 90 days, you’re not going to. Delete it.

Follow creators, not just franchises. Instead of watching every Marvel show, follow the directors (e.g., watch everything by Hiro Murai or Greta Gerwig). Instead of every true crime podcast, follow the producers (e.g., reply-all or Heavyweight).

Use the 10-minute rule. Give a show or film 10 minutes. If it hasn’t earned your attention—no complex character, no intriguing conflict, no visual style—turn it off. Unfinished content sends a stronger signal than a passive view. viparea180507malenamorganmasturbationxxx better

Seek out “competent” media. You don’t need every show to be a masterpiece. You just need it to be competent. A solid B+ thriller (Slow Horses on Apple TV+), a well-structured romance (Rye Lane on Hulu), or a documentary that actually teaches you something (How to With John Wilson) is often more satisfying than an A- show that meanders.

We have to stop rewarding “mystery box” shows that don’t know the answer. Better entertainment has the courage to end—even imperfectly. A limited series with a tight 8 episodes is almost always superior to a show that limps through four mediocre seasons because the algorithm said to.

Better storytelling respects your time.

Better media embraces specificity.

Better entertainment takes risks.

If we are to rebuild popular media, we need a new architecture. Here are the four essential pillars of superior entertainment.

The best popular media gives you what you love—but not how you expect it. The Last of Us (HBO) worked because it respected the zombie genre while focusing on quiet character moments. Poker Face revived the “case-of-the-week” format but inverted the whodunnit. Better content is a familiar meal cooked by a chef who still cares.

Make a rule: for every three English-language shows you watch, watch one foreign language film. Turn off the dubbing (dubbing ruins performance) and read the subtitles. You will quickly realize that American pop media is only one small, sometimes unsophisticated, slice of the pie. Better media embraces specificity
