    Nothing is on Netflix anymore. Everything is either on its own channel’s app, or Hulu. Like recently American Dad and Family Guy left Netflix and remain on Hulu, to join Always Sunny, Seinfeld, South Park, and so many other great shows. It will be even worse when Disney’s steaming service comes out, mass Disney movie exodus. I’m sticking with Netflix because there’s so much on there I still do love and they have really good original shows and movies, but damn I wish I could get Hulu as well.

    Netflix used to be great when they were the only players in the game, now I'm having trouble finding anything worth watching. There's Hulu and Prime, every other channel having their own streaming thing; before you know it it'll be like cable TV all over again having to get a dozen different packages to watch all the shows you like.

    Also their UI has gone to s***, keeps showing the same movies in every category.

    Arrested Development is still good. Some of the older movies they bring in. Stranger Things is great. I still enjoy the Marvel TV shows mostly.

    Most of their original content now is either stale or just not that great. I know some people in the industry that say Netflix is a sword's edge. They're using their cash to just throw s*** at the wall and hope something sticks. It's the wild west right now which is not good since the wolves are circling. Once Disney gets their own streaming service off the ground, Netflix is in big trouble. The Hulu conglomerate really stuck it to them.

    To be honest... I don't love this trailer.

    But I'm definitely going to watch this show.

    Remember the days when we would see 'Netflix Original' and get excited because you knew it was good. Now, those days are gone. So much trash on there and it's all due to that huge budget of theirs to just throw s*** at the wall and see what sticks.

    We the consumers pay for it in the long run.

    have you watched the season 4 remix yet? it def gives that season a better flow.

    as for the trailer, I thought it was good, maybe a bit over the top. def seems like they are going back to their old ways tho which is why everyone loved the show to begin with. lets hope for the best!

    I watched it, but to be honest I sort liked the old way better. :D

    I just think a show like this doesn't get any favors from a trailer. It's better when you're in it.

    Just finished Legion season 1 earlier today. Mind f'n blowing. I don't wanna be left hanging each episode of season 2, so I'll be watching them all after the season finale.

    I hope you didn't turn it off when the credits of the last episode were running.

    Remember, it's a marvel show.... There's something important at the end.

    Watched the 4 episode documentary series - Evil Genius on Netflix and really enjoyed it. Pretty crazy how someone or a group of people could come up with such a plan and in many cases get away with the crime.

    I think I really enjoyed this too because I didn't know anything about the actually crime, new coverage and how it all went down so many years ago.

    Yikes, I'm not really sure. I'll have a look at it again later, and looks like I'm gonna do the same with Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. :giggle:

    So after 4 seasons, 12 Monkeys had its series finale on Friday. If anyone here enjoys a time travel story, a love story, a story about saving the world, this is the one to watch IMO. I believe it’s on Hulu now, and there are other ways to see it. It doesn’t have a million episodes, there are 47, they’re hour long on tv, so 45 or so minus commercials, you can binge it pretty fast. I hung on it for 4 years, wainting a whole year or more between seasons because the last 2 were released all at once (season 3) and then over 3 weeks (season 4). This is a time travel show done right, with so many little details that eventually pay off I have to go back and watch it all over to catch them. It’s a show unlike LOST, where so many questions are raised, but pretty much every single one of them is answered, and it has one of the best series finales I’ve ever seen. Go watch it people, it’s worth it.

    Oh, and The Terror on AMC from a few months ago was fantastic too. Only 10 episodes.

    I was with 12 monkeys season 1. Stopped in 2. I should go back. The film is one of my favorites.

    Anyone watch Sharp Objects premiere?

    Not yet, kind of waiting on what other people think of it first.

    Wife, daughter, and I watched it. We all enjoyed it. There's a memory component going on in the show, so there are some crazy cuts, but other than that I really liked it.
