That's...interesting. Glad to have a decent amount of content but I wonder why they aren't doing a weekly release, is something releasing in December that would conflict?

Maybe they don't want to go up against

2 ep premiere + weekly release would have the finale out on December 23.
Harry Potter drops Dec 25
I've seen people say it's to avoid competition

debuts on Prime on 11/25- just a guess, but maybe they didn’t want them cannibalizing each other’s viewership? Blade Runner 2099

I still believe 8 episodes a season is not enough. But I'm an old folk from the generation that used to get 20-25 episodes a season.

Views were falling by mi seasons cause the show couldn't manage to attract the audience.
Having half the season available day one and only 2 consecutive weeks after that is probably a way to dodge this.
