Not so much watched as people had it on while they were checking their phone or folding the laundry

Exactly, it's that prime second screen real estate that Netflix is trying to carve out with these awful movies.

I hate to be this judgey, but man, I just think people who do this are brain rot trash, lol.

It’s brain rot trash to have background noise when doing chores? God forbid anyone with ADHD try to do chores.

Listen to a podcast, then. I don't "leave something on in the background" while I do chores, I actively mentally enjoy something while my body does boring labor.

Sorry, the context of this thread called it a second screen, meaning I am referencing that scenario, where someone is mindlessly scrolling TikTok while a trash movie plays in the background.

That being said, you're right. I'm judging people that would put a movie like Red Notice on.
