Cuties turned out to be ugly for Netflix.
The streaming service has watched subscription cancellations skyrocket by 800% after the French coming-of-age film triggered a boycott in early September, analyses show. Within two days of the movies premiere, #CancelNetflix became the top trending topic on Twitter and a petition on Change.org garnered hundreds of thousands of signatures.
Netflixs chief financial officer Spence Neumann didnt mention Cuties in a third-quarter earnings call this week, instead focusing on the first half of the year, when coronavirus lockdowns nationwide drove subscriptions.
Neumann told investors the company came pretty close to meeting its membership goal of 195 million worldwide. For the three months that ended Sept. 30, Netflix added 2.2 million global subscribers down from the first two quarters of 16 million and 10 million, respectively
But numbers analyzed by New York data analytics firms Antenna and YipitData tell a different story that the protest, led by conservatives who claim the films portrayal of pre-teen girls living in Paris hyper-sexualized children, had made a big dent in subscriptions.

Great apps. All displaying *** not available in your region

Oh, Roblox, Minecraft, Among Us and the idiotic YouTube streamers. Something Im trying to wean them off of.
Kids are not allowed outside, period. Under 21 and over 65 forbidden to go outside the home since March 15 by government order. Schools closed here with only 16 hours of lessons per week for grade 5 and none at all for Kinder-1. Malls and other activities closed. Difficult to obtain travel laws passes needed for any travel. Live right across from several beach resorts. All remain closed due to government edict.
Im guessing you dont have kids. And for me to give up my only form of entertainment (sci-fi series) ... right. Sounds like the very dull, boring lifestyle of the old Warsaw Pact or Soviet a Union.
A bankrupt Netflix is a great thing for America!
Youll notice the writers hold off on the blatant homo until youre in a few episodes.
The lesbian bedding the long time heroine took about 3 or 4 shows.
Its back to torrents and piracy then.
Amazon Prime, YouTube and Disney should be on the banned list for the same reasons.
I know this sounds crazy but it’s kind of ironic that this video comes out right before the Biden thing broke. Do you think theY were socializing the whole young girl sexualizing thing in preparation?
Once they introduce those forced deviant moments, is when we turn off the show/movie.
I don’t think paying nine figures to the Harkles helped, either...
There was no claim of not being factual or of a lie.
The foolishness is bitching and moaning over such trivial nonsense.
Such bitching and moaning is just plain foolish. The bitcher probably doesn’t subscribe to Netflix any way.
The American people spoke, proves you as an individual can make a difference let your voice be heard, BOYCOTT those who are against you

Or cancel HBO or whatever pay tv service is sending the forced deviant moments.
You said it was “BS” not just foolishness. Someone making a factual statement and the response “BS” implies falsity of the statement. It was not false - the Obamas are involved.
Moreover, the attempt to normalize the sexual exploitation of children is not “trivial nonsense.”
And if the poster isn’t a subscriber of Netflix, that is to their credit.
Rigth. They put porn in just about everything these days presented as “mainstream” to normalize porn and the deviant sexual behavior - both in storyline and graphically.
Just stick with the original Perry Mason which comes on every day on MeTV.
People “tolerating” and providing an audience (and funding through subscriptions even if they aren’t watching it) to trash just leads to more trash. If it isn’t profitable, it will dry up.
“Just stick with the original Perry Mason which comes on every day on MeTV.”
My wife gets the Original PM on Prime, I think, and it is 24/7.
“People tolerating and providing an audience (and funding through subscriptions even if they arent watching it) to trash just leads to more trash. If it isnt profitable, it will dry up.”
We let the HBO new contract just lapse after the lesbian invasion on the new Perry Mason show.
We went to Sling when we cut our cable to watch the 49ers and SF Giants.
After Colon’s B$ we cancelled Sling as soon as the Giants season was over. With the kneeling B$ we didn’t reup our Sling.
Attacking Netflix just plain BS
It indicates a sanctimonious self righteous attitude that indicates general ignorance.

FRackemall!
Find a good book and start reading again!
I’m re-reading all my James Michener books, now.
Finished reading EVERY book written by W.E.B. Griffin a few weeks ago!
Who needs TV?
You are the one defending the indefensible. You have no basis calling anyone else ignorant. You should be ashamed of yourself.
