I fundamentally agree with the premise of the article, but did anyone else find it strange how much the writer mentioned the show Suits?

The thesis from my skim pf the article was just that Netflix is shifting from weird/experimental award bait to the sort of normie stuff you'd see on TNT, USA, or other mainstream/non-niche basic cable.

With Suits being a quintessential example of such a turn.
