2 shows i liked they had to end early, i give them that sandman was almost done, but with gaiman and what not. blood of zeus was suppose to have way more than what season 3 produced.
I cancelled a few years back after getting tired of the rate hikes. Now that Stranger Things is done I honestly have no idea what ongoing series or movie franchises they have at this point. Is there anything still in the zeitgeist now? I don’t hear about anything.
I mostly watch stuff I already know, and mostly stuff that aired decades ago. I should just buy those old series on DVD, throw them on Jellyfin and cancel my subscription.
They’re focused on solely making content you can double screen, while watching, so all super slow repeating what’s happening frequently, nothingness. Personally, I judge a show on whether I reach for my phone or not. If I reach, I know it’s bad or at least mid. I won’t double screen. I stop watching. So It’s nice to be told there’s nothing on Netflix for me.
Oof. That is the type I hate the most, second only to reality TV. When I watch something, I sit down to focus on it. It’s not something on another screen or in the background.
I gave up on them when they kept hiking the price and removing features.

Bit late to this comment but I also wanna add they have a lot of exclusive anime, notably JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure
people were done with stranger things, it took like 10 years to put out 4-5 measlely seasons i heard, basically what AOT did.
the reasons are: restricting how much people can use it, increasing the price constantly, also eliminating content from the library.
cancelling shows 1-2,3 seasons, only 8 episodes per season and extremely long hiatuses in between seasons,
Netflix was a good idea but they got greedy, but luckily there are alternatives.
unfortunately they are the ones producing the shows though, albeit with varying degrees of quality.
And what makes you believe Netflix is protected from piracy?
Any company who stops servicing their customer and starts nickel and diming them to death will ultimately fail. Short-term cash grabs keep the shareholders happy though.
This whole idea of “keeping the shareholders happy,” is also such bad business. The modern share holder being catered to is the day trader: buy in before we grow large, dump the stock when we peak before we lose all value.
The classic and traditional shareholder being “middle class America holding the stock of companies whose mission they believe in,” is long dead, if it were ever real.
Most stock in large companies is actually held by index funds. It’s your retirement they’re growing. Or realistically a bunch of old people’s who own a lot more than you or me
Exclusivity is intolerable.
“Big Popcorn” wins again.
