Seems Youku is aiming for the international market as we saw last year. So many Youku dramas on Netflix.🤔 I just hope this new policy of theirs only affects modern dramas with no real plot. Imagine a drama like Go Ahead having only 23-12 episodes? Or Love like the galaxy having even 30 episodes!!! It's not enough. I was already complaining when historical dramas were 40 episodes maximum now here we are. You can literally tell writers are struggling to fit in so much into just 40 episodes. Oh well.
It's just wasting the team's efforts. Edit: Lesser episodes might be good for yunhe data(Not exactly though, cause if the drama is that GOOD people will keep on watching). If a drama with 23 episodes got 1B playbacks that's 43.5m/ep compared to 36 episode drama with 1B playbacks having only 27.8m/ep.
Yeah. I actually don't have a problem when modern dramas with no real plot have lesser episodes. But that should be a new rule for dramas that haven't started filming yet.
It's so they can pass the drama review and get distribution license. They had to cut the drama into two parts cause of the same issue, so more episodes would give them issues.
