They realize 1138 episodes means a long life and huge popularity while 770 new originals but fewer new releases means shit, right?

Sense 8 was apparently crazy expensive and not getting enough views to justify it.

It had 6 filming locations across the world so that made sense but (spoilers) all the characters came together at the end of the 2nd season

Or shared confirmation bias; a film buff with an affinity for George Lucas is more likely to pull 1138 off the top of their head.
