Netflix was becoming the HBO of online video services.
Liberal to the core and adding more liberal management and content.
They have a show called Another Life which is sci-fi. This show was made by Netflix and had a five-star rating so the wife and I gave it a watch.
Not only was it filled with SJW bullsnot (global warming flooded the world, a trans person not given a gender, threesomes, and bi-crap) it was also terrible science fiction. We watched all 10 episodes mainly because it got to be funny in how terrible it was. Just awful.
Curious as to why it was rated 5-stars, I went out onto the web and searched for reviews from non-biased outsiders. It got 1 and 1.5 stars all around. The user comments on those sites were just as harsh. It got 6% rating on Rottentomatoes—a site I don’t trust, either, but they got this one right.
Netflix has to be manipulating the ratings.
As anecdotal evidence to support this, the Last Jedi is also rated at or near 5 stars on Netflix. It has a 44% audience rating on rottentomatoes, which is generous. How could it get a solid rating on Netflix???
Finally, I stand in front of the TV time after time scanning for shows/movies I want to watch on Netflix and invariably I end up watching things I’ve already seen a million times (like the Office) because there is NOTHING BUT GARBAGE.
Why do I keep it? Good question!
“Netflix was becoming the HBO of online video services.”
Actually, Netflix is more like the AOL of streaming.
Their early advantage is gone, and they will have little to offer in unique content.
