A weird thing I saw at a hotel in Austin last weekend

I was staying at a hotel downtown and the lobby had this huge screen showing a live feed of what people were watching on Netflix. It was just a list of show titles and viewer counts, updating every few seconds. For a solid hour, the top three were all Korean dramas, with one show getting over 2 million viewers at that exact moment. It made me realize how much that kind of TV has taken over the binge scene. Has anyone else noticed a specific genre just dominating everywhere lately?

What about all the true crime stuff though?

My friend's podcast got a cease and desist last year. You have to be super careful with victim names and case details. It's not worth the legal risk.
