It's the opposite. Episodes are lengthened with plot points being repeated through dialogue. Hour-long TV shows were really 40 minutes due to advertising, meanwhile on Netflix they are 50-plus minutes. Longer shows = more watch time recorded, which is Netflix's main KPI. Tiktok and others get long watch times because it's more like flipping through channels.
