  • Control Issues: Binge-Watching, Channel-Surfing and Cultural Value
    . Volume 16, Issue 2 November 2019 Control Issues: Binge-watching, channel-surfing and cultural value Mareike Jenner, Anglia Ruskin University, UK Abstract: This article explores binge-watching as part of neoliberal discourses surrounding control, class and ‘good’ television, which leads to an overall discourse concerning the legitimation and de-legitimation of the medium. Binge-watching is understood here as part of a continuum of viewing practices that help us to understand and discuss the medium in popular discourse. As historical precedent, the emphasis lies on channel-surfing to illustrate the intersection of technology, control and ‘good’ television. This article outlines some of the discourses at stake in channel-surfing and its relationship with remote controls as these ancillary technologies move from being devices associated with avoiding ‘bad’ television to devices that subjugate viewers. Such a discursive de-legitimation of a viewing practice interlinks with an overall de-legitimation of the medium. This precedent is indicative of the way binge-watching’s cultural positioning has been negotiated throughout its history and may be re-negotiated now, especially in relation to Netflix. The dynamics of this negotiation take place at the intersection of class, technology, viewing practices and ‘good’ or ‘quality’ television. In the course of promoting The Innocents (Netflix, 2018- ) in 2018, Guy Pearce stated that he was instructed by Netflix not to use the term binge-watching. This led to an immense amount of press coverage and speculation over company policy. Particularly telling is a Yahoo! Finance piece written by Andy Meek (2018) that speculates that the practice of binge-watching has become ‘low-brow’ and Netflix is seeking to extricate itself from these associations, possibly in advance of launching a more ‘elite’ version of its service in the US.

  • Cannes Hot List: 15 Titles Set to Heat up the 2017 Market
    Cannes Hot List: 15 Titles Set to Heat Up the 2017 Market 6:00 AM 5/16/2017 by Tatiana Siegel and Rebecca Ford As Netflix and Amazon challenge the traditional festival sales model, dealmakers are bracing for battle over a handful of key titles. 'Spinning Man' Courtesy of Michael Moriatis Last year, the biggest Cannes deal saw STX Entertainment plunk down $50 million for foreign rights to Martin Scorsese's mob epic The Irishman, beating out Fox and Universal in a bidding war. Fast-forward 12 months, and that film may continue to dominate the conversation at the market this year. That's because in February, The Irishman financier Gaston Pavlovich opted out of the STX pact in favor of a worldwide deal with Netflix — a move that has implications for European distributors (Netflix forgoes a traditional theatrical release and instead launches directly to its subscribers). "The Irishman will remain a talking point," says Bloom's Alex Walton. "For example, I was just in France and Italy, and though it's old news, people still want to talk about it. The fact that this move is taking box-office dollars away from the marketplace will reach a fever pitch come Cannes." STX had mulled legal action against Netflix, but sources say the two sides have reached an understanding. Even so, the aftershocks can still be felt given that a $125 million film has defected to a streaming service. In fact, the presales market — a major slice of Cannes deal- making — continues to adjust to the sometimes crippling presence of Netflix and Amazon.
