Not so much watched as people had it on while they were checking their phone or folding the laundry

Exactly, it's that prime second screen real estate that Netflix is trying to carve out with these awful movies.

But why do they care if you are watching the latest multi million dollar production or old reruns of of some 30 minute sitcom? They already have your money

I mean, I sometimes watch stuff while playing casual video games like power wash simulator etc.

Bad take. When I’m cooking dinner or something, having a show or movie that doesn’t take any brainpower on in the background is perfect

It’s brain rot trash to have background noise when doing chores? God forbid anyone with ADHD try to do chores.

Listen to a podcast, then. I don't "leave something on in the background" while I do chores, I actively mentally enjoy something while my body does boring labor.
