   Thanks, all. My summary for the pitch meeting: prestige is growth when it keeps the monsters meaningful, and safety when it hides them. I will report back (no names, no details, I like my job).

   Slow burn defender says: prestige is good for us. It trained a huge audience to be patient, and a more patient audience means more slow horror gets made.

   Catalog view: prestige shows have unusually long tails. $TLOU talk rises around each season and never quite drops to zero. That is the prestige premium in one chart.

   Prestige horror TV has a long history, it just did not always use the word. $HNBL and $HHLL were already doing it. $TLOU just made it impossible to ignore.

   As a game player, what impressed me is that the show kept the silence. The game's best moments are quiet, listening for clicks in the dark. That translated.

   Growth. The episode people talked about most from the first season barely has any infected in it, and it made grown adults cry all over the internet. Horror was always about loss.

   Genre editor question that keeps coming up in our pitch meetings. $TLOU made horror adjacent TV feel like prestige drama: big production, awards talk, serious reviews. Great for the genre's reputation…
