“Content is king.”

yep, and netflix is running out of content, mainly because NO ONE is making decent content anymore and haven’t for a few decades, and netflix-produced “originals” are totally stupid and unwatchable ... after a few years of subscribing, there’s literally nothing worth watching and you start contemplating rewatching stuff you’ve already seen ... every so often, netflix adds new old stuff, but there’s a reason you’ve never hear of these old movies and such: they totally sucked then and they suck even more now ...

I disagree with that statement but understand that it is purely subjective. What's brilliant to me could be trash to you.

Ozark is decent content. Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul is decent content. Yellowstone is decent content. Say what you will about "Handmaid's", but overall I've enjoyed it. Lillehammer was a fun one. Haven't seen 1883 yet, but I suspect I'll enjoy it and likely also 6666.

That's off the top of my head. Of course, the quality of that content is 100% subjective.

The problem I see is that the "decent" content is scattered out over like seven different providers. So they draw you into seven subscriptions that end up costing more than you ever paid back in the day for "straight cable".
