"2023 Streaming Trends: Why 'Suits' Dominated and Gen Z Can't Get Enough"

TL;DR Summary
The most streamed TV show of 2023 was the former USA Network drama "Suits," which ended in 2019, surprising many with its resurgence in popularity among Generation Z. The appeal of midlist shows like "Suits" and "The Rookie" to younger audiences lies in their unhipness, lack of contrivances, and ability to provide a sense of regularity in a turbulent world, offering a departure from the edgy and morally complex content often associated with streaming platforms. This trend reflects a nostalgia for old-fashioned network shows and a desire for comfort and predictability in storytelling.
