what even is netflix?

my mom bought and installed it for me a couple of weeks ago, so i checked some of the "hot" available content ... and it pretty much looks like something i could create with a couple of guys willing to act and a 300$ camera

The Netflix originals are pure slop. Most of the time it's obvious that they are just trying to recreate some old cheesy schtick movie and for one of the series I did like ( Stranger Things ), they ruined it by dragging it out to the point where it went from a cool eerie show to sci-fi alien battles.

 It never has the movies or TV shows I actually wanna watch outside of the originals so I end up torrenting anyways ( better quality than streaming ). Most annoying thing here at least is that sometimes it has some shows I wanna watch but only certain seasons are available

just watch the hollywood classics and cancel the subscription

a sign of cultural decline. people don't want to bother watching the slop in theaters? bring it directly to their home and market it as non slop hoping they take the bait

yeah. i mean everyone knows i dont exactly have high standards when it comes to this shit, and i still genuinely cringed when i realized what all those hot garbage shows and movies are about. 

from what i ve noticed (the local news portals), netflix is trying really fucking hard to keep its rep as the hottest shit in town, so they are massively paying for those articles that overhype absolute trash, to the point where not even the hardest consoomers are buying it anymore

i guess everything has an expiration date. i remember "netflix" being synonymous with "the perfect way to spend your evening", lmao
