## Resource

Instagram is betting big on your living room, launching a revamped TV app packed with Reels, Stories, and even horizontal videos—all designed to turn your couch into an Instagram hub. Unlike past copycat moves, this is a serious push for longform, episodic content and live events, aiming to capture attention through shared screen experiences. While some features like casting Reels to TV make sense for group viewing, others feel awkward on a big screen. Backed by community feedback and targeting the booming $14B microdrama market, Instagram hopes creators will embrace polished TV-native series. But if they can’t convince creators to ditch phone-native clips for cinematic storytelling, this could be another trend-chasing misstep.
