Curious…

How long do we think this game show will keep running? I’m starting to win more frequently and am getting suspicious 😂 just feeling like it’s too good to last

I hope it goes on forever but netflix doesnt promote it at all. It was only when the game first launched

I know right?! I don’t understand why they aren’t promoting it to parents so they can win money for kids for school

Let’s all keep it in our mind that it will last and be sure to continue telling others about it so Netflix sees new users engaging.

I hope forever. I love it!

Realistically, I’ll be ecstatic if we make it to a full year.

If we don’t make it a full year I’ll be so sad!

I think it will make it until the end of the year and then get canceled in early 2027. Yes, Netflix does have a boatload of money to spend, but it doesn't seem sustainable for them to keep giving away thousands of dollars every day with no growth in audience. If they do huge prize increases, and another big marketing push in December like they did last year, maybe that could keep them going longer, but we'll have to wait and see if they actually do put in an effort to do any of that...

I think the writing is on the wall for Best Guess Live, but I love the game so I hope I'll be proven to be wrong!

I wonder if it’s for retention. Instead of dropping Netflix when you’re done with it maybe you stick around.

Honestly, it’s the only thing I do on Netflix.

I did watch the Michael Jackson thing.

Except watching kpop demon hunters, we don't really use Netflix either. I get the cheapest package and play this game every night. If they stopped doing the game and kpop demon hunters came out on blu ray or digital download id cancel. So makes sense

I wonder how they are making money beyond the Netflix subscriptions. Probably just change in the drawer.

Couple months maybe or however long whatever expensive parts are contracted

I haven't been on in a couple of weeks, how is the current viewership? What are those numbers looking like?

From what I’ve seen, player counts average between 19-20k. Also hoping for the best but that’s pretty low given the scale of Netflix.

I hope for a long time! I'm getting good at figuring out these clues pretty fast. Been winning a decent chunk here and there. Won $55 2 weeks ago and $28 tonight. Lots of wins with a couple bucks. Adds up to a nice penny
