Netflix is aggressively pushing back on reports that it will shift its strategy toward releasing TV episodes weekly instead of dropping entire seasons at once.

Netflix said it already uses a staggered release strategy for some variety and competition programs but has no plans to expand it to scripted content.

"The weekly release of licensed titles (like Great British Baking Show) isn't new and in hopes of keeping Rhythm + Flow's winner a surprise, we're trying something new! But not happening with more shows than that," Netflix tweeted this week in response to several publications, including Complex.

Netflix is aggressively pushing back on reports that it plans to change how it releases its TV shows.

Publications including Complex, ComicBook.com, and Barstool Sports wrote this week that Netflix was shifting its TV strategy and preparing to release episodes weekly for more of its shows (as traditional TV and other streamers such as Hulu do) instead of dropping an entire season at once.

Netflix went on the offensive on Twitter this week to say that it had no plans to change the binge-friendly model it pioneered and that the weekly release of some titles "isn't new."

"The weekly release of licensed titles (like Great British Baking Show) isn't new and in hopes of keeping Rhythm + Flow's winner a surprise, we're trying something new! But not happening with more shows than that," Netflix responded to Complex Pop Culture, which had tweeted a story with the headline "Multiple Netflix Series Will Now Drop Episodes Weekly Instead of All at Once."

It's true that Netflix uses a staggered release strategy for a few shows, such as variety and competition programs. The reports suggested that it would expand this to its scripted originals. But Netflix said this wasn't the case.

One person tweeted: "Say it ain't so! I love binging, and typically wait for week to week shows finish each season so I can binge them. You don't need to change." Netflix responded with "it aint so."
