Comfort television, the algorithm, and the new shape of attention.

The shift

It started quietly, the way these things always do — a few rooms, a few records, a handful of people who refused to let it go. Then, all at once, everyone was paying attention.

What follows is part reporting, part field guide: who is driving this, why it matters now, and where it goes from here.

What comes next

Nobody can say for certain. But the people closest to it are unanimous on one point — this is only the beginning.
