It’s all paid for already, so the only choice is to watch it or not.
However, I’d argue that any good show will hook you in the first few minutes.
Any more than the basic premise, or a short trailer might spoil it for me.

When I watchedThe Matrixfor the first time, it was completely blind.
I didn’t know what it was about, or even the premise of the movie.
So its impact on me was enormous.
I was figuring out that the Matrix wasn’t real at the same time as the main character!
You don’t need reviews to know what’s trending.
That way, it’s more likely that you will like things they rate well, and vice versa.
Netflix in particular, has a percentage “match” indicating how confident they are you’ll like something.
As a case in point, Netflix has a movie calledAtlasfeaturing Jennifer Lopez piloting a sentient mech suit.
That movie has been absolutely trashed in the reviews, but I absolutely loved it.
Netflix knows I have bad taste in movies, and it’s catering to those tastes perfectly.
At least most of the time.
