Hardly surprising, the point of building a cookie cutter is to mass produce cookies
Netflix is the new Fox OTA channel. Just missing the infomercials at 3am.
Motherfucker, that’s what all streaming services are. The massive amounts of just absolute garbage that most of them are putting out is ridiculous. Just because a show here or there that catches your attention gets popular doesn’t mean suddenly they’re the epitome of highbrow entertainment.
Netflix has to churn out more and more original content (with the obvious result being a lot of it being mediocre) cause everyone and their mother decided they wanted their own streaming service, so they clawed their streaming rights away from Netflix.
That doesn’t mean Netflix is a good guy, by any means, but they’re hardly alone at the bottom of the barrel.
Jesse… just used a recognizable brand name… next time I guess I’ll just put (insert faceless corporation here), didn’t mean to cause a conniption
Sssshhh dont give them ideas…
Honestly, I might just watch them if they did. Miss those shark vacuum cleaner commercials, Ron popeil gadgets and completely bogus fitness items.
Oh yeah thos sit on ur ass and get a sixpack things. Did see a lot of those, while drinking a six pack to be honest.
Ninjaaaaaaaa
Just okay TV is here to stay
Is this news to literally anyone? Just okay TV has been a mainstay for my entire 30+ year life. How do you think shit like the masked singer, the seventh spinoff of NCIS, 18 law and orders, the voice, basically all reality TV, etc stay in the air so long? Recycled scripts, easy to make, low production costs. They don’t need a lot of viewers. They only need enough viewers to glue eyes to the product/ads. In Netflix case it’s not ads (yet…just wait), but every Mary and Jim that will watch easy to make trash just to have something on is a Mary and Jim that they can rely on to keep paying their subscription fee. The people that will consume just okay trash are the PRIMARY demographic for most content creators of all types, make no mistake.
Man I’m like an inch away from dropping Netflix. I’ve had it since it was DVDs, but the price keeps going up, and the value keeps going down.
Just do it, see how it feels. It’s easy to come back later when you want to.
Whatever, I enjoyed TF out of Night Agent, Netflix might suck in a lot of ways, but not everyone is going to like the same stuff.
Hard agree. Netflix sucks in a myriad of ways, but The Night Agent isn’t one of them.
