He added, “We are more into multitasking. We seem to be confused and audiences can't keep their minds on things, so we can't make anything that makes too much sense, takes our attention and requires an audience to focus. And as for streaming executives? It's getting worse. We're going back to where we were.”

Chase also mentioned the post-Soprano era, that it was, “a 25-year blip. And to be clear, I'm not talking only about The Sopranos, but a lot of other hugely talented people out there who I feel increasingly bad for.”
