Let's talk about Watcher, and their new venture into streaming, Watcher TV. Surely this can't be a horribly misguided move on the part of a youtube channel? Was it Worth It?

watched buzzfeed unsolved religiously. When the moved to be Watcher i straight up just....couldnt get into it. And im realizing its 100% because they prioritized their production value at the cost of being entertaining. I want (wheeze) back, not 4k cameras and 17 editors.

I saw somebody saying "Maybe 6$ isn't expensive but what about the people that live in another country where the currency isn't dollars ?" And then the person explained that in their country 6$ was a 2 week of grocery

You forgot to mention that THERE WAS A COUNTDOWN TO THEIR FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT. As in, fans were excitedly waiting for news they’d been hyping up, only for it to be like “if you’re poor this is the last you’ll see of us”. The way this was handled was WILD.

It really is a head-scratcher to me that creators assume I watch a free entertainment service because I have money to spare. Some live in an entirely separate reality.

What financially comfortable people always fail to realize is that even a dollar is a lot of money when it’s your last dollar.

Thank you for the Ryan and Shane comment. Sick of people trying to pretend like they weren’t involved in this decision. They were

"Steven is spending all the money" "Shane is uncomfortable" "Ryan wouldnt d-" THEY ARE ALL RESPONSIBLE!! THEYRE ALL ADULTS!! Dunk on the expensive food shows as much as your heart desires, this descision was made by all of them.

It is craaazy that so many people said, "This doesn't align with my idea of Shane or the things he's said are his values. Therefore, this decision wasn't his." I get that it's painful to see one of your faves be hypocritical but that is some twisty logic.

They had 25 employees and not one of those employees was a decent financial planner.

The whole “we want to go abroad on location” reason from them, is idiotic, as they HAVE gone internationally.

That phenomenon you mentioned about being background noise for artists like a podcast; I think some creators overvalue their content as "main monitor" content. Often, especially now in the slop algorithm feed era, people like content they can put on their second screen to absorb the audio or commentary while getting something else done. I haven't been a Watcher/Unsolved viewer in years, but their content always struck me as something to pop on and enjoy while eating lunch or something; not as a Media phenomenon like a Netflix show that fuels dialogue outside of their social media.

Their biggest mistake, really, was mixing two very different messages. "We need to do this to save our production. We might have had to shut down entirely if we didn't do this." Really doesn't play well right next to, "We want to make bigger content! We want to bring in more people! We want to jetset around the globe to show you amazing things!" They needed to pick one and stick to it. No way to please everyone, but their competing messages didn't end up pleasing anyone.

The biggest thing this "controversy" taught me was how little Watcher content I actually watched. Ghost Files in particularly, as a previous Unsolved: Paranormal fan, is just too bloated to hold my attention. They don't need a bunch of fancy ghost-hunting garbage, sets, and 1 hr+ runtimes, they just need tight editing and good banter. The "Road files" behind-the-scenes video that was on the Watcher TV platform was pretty illuminating as to their general lack of business sense and mismanagement of resources. They have waaay too many people for location scouting, too many days on location without shooting, etc. Watcher wasn't delivery TV-quality ideas like Dropout is, they don't need TV-level budgets, and even if they were, they don't seem to have the business sense to handle them.

I loved buzzfeed unsolved because it felt like you were really there with them— I think something that Watchers’ “version” of unsolved (though it’s hard to compare since they’re just so different content wise) lacks is that feeling of it being relatable and more vlog-like. The videos where it had those cut-to-black gags and seemed like it was filmed on a shoestring budget was so charming and pulled people in so much cuz they really took you on the adventure with them, a feeling a high budget operation like theirs just can’t seem to replicate. I’ve never been super into Watcher, and if they don’t ever make actual unsolved-type true crime series, the it’ll probably stay that way
