At the time, I was off my phone and off social media. But I knew the conversation that was happening, and there were paparazzi; that was difficult. It felt like jumping in at the deep end.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Marisa has struggled with the advent of streaming television because it has meant that there is &#8220;too much choice&#8221; for general viewers these days and it can make it easier for certain programmes to be &#8220;cancelled&#8221; before their time. <\/p>\n<p>She said: &#8220;There\u2019s so much being made, which is great because there are so many jobs for actors. But on the flip side, there\u2019s too much and people don\u2019t know what to watch. Sometimes, if a show is on a big streaming platform, they can bury it and no one sees it, and it gets cancelled. If &#8216;Industry&#8217; was on a streaming platform, not on a TV network like HBO, it probably would have been cancelled after season one, because it didn\u2019t have the numbers.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I mean, 90% of the shows I watch are guilty pleasures. I love every franchise of &#8216;Real Housewives&#8217; \u2013 I\u2019ve just finished &#8216;Beverly Hills&#8217;. If you can call that guilty?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/marisa-abela-found-difficult-deal-sudden-fame-came-playing-amy-winehouse-1418208.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>10 May 2025 Marisa Abela had to come off social media when she played Amy Winehouse.
