    Sounds like they will announce ad-tier supported options in addition to what they already have. I could be down with it. I have the Disney+ bundle that has the ad-level Hulu and I deal with it just fine.

    I will not do the ad version even if it's $1/month. We had the hulu one once and it was brutal. They did that trick where they'd jack up the commercial volume and it drove me nuts

    Netflix has the Dark crew locked in as well as Narcos and Stranger Things. Ima fuck with that shit but $20 a month is fucking insane for that. I’ll pay less with ads to watch that

    If the price point for the 4k package stays the same and they put ads on it, I'm out. Fuck that shit

    Where is the info about ads coming from? They just jacked the 4K up to $20 a month and now they’ll be ads? Haven’t seen that

    It's all over the internet. They''l eventually be introducing separate, ad-supported plans. Fucking read people, I literally already posted that exact same thing.

    Too subjective for a definitive answer.

    You could make arguments for Disney and Apple. Even HBO. Just depends on your household and viewing habits.

    Hmmmmmmm. I guess right now I watch either HBOMax or Apple the most. A lot of Paramount+ as well, but mostly Star Trek.

    HBO max is the best and it’s not even close. Batman is playing rn in 4K a month after release. Dune was there similarly

    Nathan was in a complete panic mode when he pulled out the proposal out of nowhere. It was amazing how he then tried to wildly rip on people who dared tell him that that wasn't a special moment.

    April bragging to the girls during that meet-up that Jake had creampied her every time they had ever had sex wasn't a comment I was ready for.

    Madilyns friends are awful humans.

    Hunter seems like a reasonable/nice person, so I have no idea what he's doing with Alexis.

    Colby is a sociopath....liked when Zaye almost punched him.

    Madilyn walking out very pregnant to start reunion show was surprising...not as surprising as Rae not being with Jake because she's dating a girl now.

    Haha. Thought the same thing. I want to hate something as much as she hates Colby. And her friends just going in on him….did they even show them ever getting along? Seemed you would see a talk that would inevitably lead to an argument every time.

    Trying to think of all the shows Netflix has that are worth keeping it.
    Witcher
    Squid Games
    Ozark
    I think you should leave
    Vikings
    The Kingdom (not sure if they’re doing another season)
    Narcos, but I think it’s over now.

    The only thing I can think of to why she would marry him is that he may have a ton of family money, as shown by him taking April to play polo. But, he's also a sociopath/pathological liar so who knows.

    I need to watch Stranger Things, Giri/Haji, Ganglands, Top Boy, Squid Game, Bloodlines (maybe?) and Black Summer season two

    Godless and Bodyguard were excellent but short

    the TV content is excellent IMO. It's the movies where they let me down
