    Most Netflix produced stuff is garbage on top of that. They have a couple quality things but most of it is completely unwatchable. I’ll take less content, for higher quality content. I don’t use it for constant background noise.

      Same. It’s just been Netflix’s MO since they came into being.

      They have never been able to develop a decent idea into a good one. Triple Frontier, a movie about former special forces dudes stealing from a cartel. Great idea, horrible 3rd act when they forgot how to all green beret at the same time.

      Good idea, needed a few rewrites. Old Guard, 6 Underground, the list goes on and on. Movie after movie is just mid.

          Haha that’s the whole point! There best work, isn’t.

          Like, the first few Stranger Things were great, and House of Cards was great until the boondoggle of an end (which wasn’t the creators fault bc of all the Spacey nonsense). That’s about it.

            Mindhunter was also great, but rather than losing their audience with huge gaps, they lost their showrunner and cast.

            House of cards and mindhunter came from Netflix trying to give money to people that knew how to make quality shows and not interfering. Then they decided a different strategy of trying to appeal to lots of different demographics with low quality shlock. It destroyed the quality of everything. Now Netflix original means terrible, like direct to video was in the past.
