Let’s keep in mind that TV subtitles were true garbage back then. I have ADHD and often miss dialogue. I remember resigning myself to not using them as there was a huge time delay and the white text on black boxes covered 10% of our 480p screens.
Personally I find subtitles to be awful now. The ones on Netflix at least are largely farmed out to cheap labour from developing countries. I’ve had numerous instances where the subs were different than what was actually said, enough so as to cause confusion or ruin the dialogue.

I hate when they shortened the sentence to summarize it instead of writing exactly what was said.
