Lost was edited for precise moments to transition into commercials, evoking old network practices. Netflix disrupts this rhythm by placing ads arbitrarily, ruining the tension.
The original network airing utilized dramatic cliffhangers before cuts to ads, enhancing engagement. Today's placement of ads disrupts scene continuity, diminishing viewer experience.
Seeing a suspenseful moment cut abruptly by ads, particularly for Netflix itself, feels disingenuous to subscriber expectations. It undermines the unique legacy of the show’s storytelling.
It's ironic that after subscribing for an ad-free experience, viewers are subjected to repeat commercials—especially for Netflix—distracting from the art and flow of the series.
