Make a site like onlyfans, but for series.

I sometimes pick up a subscription for a streaming service, just to watch one serie.

I much rather pay a smaller amount, directly to the creators of the series. A singleton stream subscruption, a fee to watch a single serie.

Heck, you can even "pledge" your fee before the serie is even made, crowd funding a Expanse | Firefly | [insert your killed serie here]

So what you might be after, is this ancient magic called DVDs. Some will claim blue ray is better for a load of reasons you're not going to notice as you scroll on your phone while watching, but either way I'm pretty sure this is your solution

Isn't this what Nebula is?

It’s called Patreon

koproller@reddit (OP)

A patreon, but one that can hosts high resolution videos and series, and has a app that shows you all series and videos on the application.

So an Amazon Prime, without the Amazon. Just cutting out the middle man.

It's like Amazon Prime, but without the Prime. You pay for the series you want to watch one season at a time and they send it to you in DVD format.

Patreon has been used to fund many projects like this

I think it's called a blu ray box set.

He meant something ongoing before and during production

This is the way. Once you have it on Blu-ray, it's yours forever (and at much better quality than streaming).

yea, its kinda sad that there is no digital distribution platform for movies and series

there is only physical, piracy and streaming

Yeah, it might be to late now with piracy being so easy. But lets say I wanna rewatch Game of Thrones, I'll easy pay $5 for the month and a half it'll take me. If your streaming service have a hundred million user, you could easy get half a million or a million a year that pay for the rewatch but not a full subscription. That's $2,5-$5 million extra with very little extra cost.
