Binge-worthy TV is not just for adults anymore. The Binge Effect has helped spur serialized storytelling in entertainment, and it’s becoming the norm in kids’ entertainment where producers are working on “tell[ing] deeper, longer, more engaging and immersive stories” to keep children watching. Preschool programming is the “next frontier for serialization,” as evidenced by the show Topsy and Tim which incorporates short and long story arcs through seasons. The series has generated more than 100 million views on BBC’s iPlayer. (Kidscreen)
