Over the next couple of weeks, I’m going to try a few chat posts and see what kind of interaction they receive. Any subscriber to the newsletter can answer and paid subscribers can start a new thread.
In this thread, I’m interested in feedback about the newsletter. It’s five long-ish newsletters a week. And it both feels like that’s too much and at the same time, I sometimes don’t have enough room for everything I should be covering.
I’m considering dropping the “what’s new on TV” section at the bottom, partly for space and partly because a lot of you read the newsletter the next day.
What’s your feedback? What do you like or dislike about the newsletter?
I just wanted to write and say that I am a BIG fan of the "what's new on TV" section and would be very sad to see it go. It's an easy section to skip if you're not interested in reading it. I have found it surprisingly difficult to obtain a daily list of new television and this is the one place where I consistently get that information in my inbox.
Love the newsletters, Rick. They’re a good length. For me personally, I usually skip the last part about the premiere dates because if there’s a show that I’m interested in, I can easily find what date it’s coming back. So if it’s gonna help you with the workload, I would get rid of it. But I also see why some others like it.
Love the newsletter, although I have a hard time keeping up with 5 posts a week. They're always informative, though. I like the what's new on TV part, even if it doesn't always apply to where I live (which is Brazil). Keep up the good work!
Great newsletter. Very insightful into the business. I enjoy reading about behind the scenes machinations. The what’s on TV can be helpful. I usually know what’s coming but there are often shows i hadn’t heard of that are on your list.
It is a great newletter. The length seems about right. Like the "what's new on TV" section. With the upfronts coming up, maybe a "breaking news" e-mail about the new programming, cancelations, etc. Otherwise, love it.
For a frequently-updated list of what's coming out on TV & streaming, I find Metacritic's TV Premiere Calendar very helpful (especially since it links to reviews). https://www.metacritic.com/feature/tv-premiere-dates
The list does include a lot of streaming movies, though, which makes the list a bit longer than I'd like.
The newsletter is excellent the way it is now...I would really miss the "what's new on TV" section....please keep it.

I really enjoy the newsletter. The more the better

I really like the newsletter as is, so I wouldn't change anything, but it would be ok with me if it was 3x per week instead of 5x per week.

I appreciate the work you put in. The newsletter is excellent. Thank you.

Not biased because I'm his son, but I wouldn't really mind which option he chose
