Not sure why I waited so long to start it.

Christina Applegate can spit in my mouth.

It encouraged people to start difficult but important conversations, so let's remove it.

Watched the first ep of Bosch. The first half that episode was kinda ****ed up...K parties murdered 5 folks?

But the ep ended up getting really interesting with the bones and his backstory.

Plus I've liked Titus Welliver ever since his performance on SOA. Will be binging this joint till the end.

@Magic33 Good looks on the Quincy Jones documentary, very well done.

 

[tramericanjr]

[206to813]

Just started in the dark. Dope show so far.

Randomly popped it on last night , had never heard of it. Felt like I was gonna tap out, due to cheesiness but ended up watching 3 episodes. I think it’s got me interested enough to keep going. Not bad

Netflix removed the suicide scene as a response to experts in the field saying the show has influenced a surge in youth suicides

Well damn, must've read that wrong.

 

[D.Josey]

They need to remove that mop handle scene next.

 

[206to813]

Well damn, must've read that wrong.

Well they left that part out of their post. Just said the show is sparking more important conversations or whatever they said. Yeah, cuz their classmates are killing themselves

 

[jayfiend]

I can understand why people might not like it. But i watched all 20 episodes of “Disjointed” in like two days. Really liked it only to find there will be no more episodes.

 

[AEA18]

The dislikes everytime a video about this show is uploaded

Hope this show keeps getting renewed just to piss the racist folks off.

 

[sooperhooper]

I never know much about adding aziz but i visited a friend yesterday and she put it on and i was pleasantly surprised. Dude's humor is definitely up my alley.

Watched Point Blank last night, while decent was disappointing

Peaky Blinders season 2 finale

The writing on this show flawless.

 

[District of Columbia]

Lol wait until you get to season 3

Show is criminally underrated..i think it’s in my top 5

 

[206to813]

Unpopular opinion, but I tapped out of Peaky. I loved it at first but I got kind of bored, show was getting repetitive. I think I might give it another try eventually. I was in s3...

 

[jape]

peaky blinders is my ****

 

[Nouss]

Peaky Blinders was the first show I caught when I reupped Netflix this year. Loved every moment.

 

[robtoofresco]

Peaky Blinders are just cool to me. Idk what it’s lacking to put it into upper echelon for me. Strong cast, wonderfully wardrobed and realistic set pieces. Maybe the story just didn’t grab me like that.

 

[Mark Antony]

Blinders really does get repetitive s3 on. Super genius Tommy's elaborate yet convenient schemes wraps things up nicely again? Still a good watch though, will check out any new season.

 

[RustyShackleford]

S4 of Peaky is better than S3 imo. I liked the more simple grounded conflict

But yeah, the show's plot past S2 is pretty much "Tommy will figure it out".

Netflix Thought It Would Have 5 Million New Subscribers This Quarter. Instead It Added 2.7 Million.
And that’s before it loses Friends, The Office, and other shows and movies made by its Big Media rivals.

https://www.vox.com/recode/2019/7/1...-million-content-disney-hbo-att-nbc-streaming

Netflix expected to add 5 million subscribers in the second quarter of 2019. It didn’t come close. The streaming video giant only added 2.7 million.

Those numbers would be great news for lots of streaming services that intend to compete with Netflix, but not for CEO Reed Hasting, who depends on producing go-go subscriber additions every three months to keep Wall Street happy. After those numbers came out, Wall Street dropped the value of Netflix shares by 10 percent.

Netflix is used to seeing its stock fluctuate. More alarming may be Hastings’s explanation for the drop, expressed in a letter to investors: “We think Q2’s content slate drove less growth in paid net adds than we anticipated.”

Translation: We thought more people would like the stuff we make, like Triple Frontier, and the stuff we buy from other people, like The Office.

Things are going to get much tougher for Netflix over the next year, as competitive streaming services from Disney and WarnerMedia roll out — and these competitors pull back some of the popular titles they currently license to Netflix, like Friends and the Marvel movies, which they want to run on their own services.

The good news, Netflix says, is that it thinks its Q2 miss is simply a Q2 miss, not a sign of things to come. The company thinks it will add 7 million subscribers in the third quarter — more than Wall Street expected it to predict — driven in part by a new season of Stranger Things. And it has new movies coming from Martin Scorsese (for people who like arty gangster movies) and Michael Bay (for people who like to see things blow up).

And it insists it will do fine as rival services start up and take their stuff back from Netflix’s catalog: “From what we’ve seen in the past when we drop strong catalog content ... our members shift over to enjoying our other great content.” Netflix currently has 151 million subscribers worldwide.

One thing that’s not coming to Netflix next quarter — or ever — Hastings says, is ads. That’s not news: Hastings and his executives are always asked about this and they always give the same answer. But this is the first time I can remember them spelling this out in an investors letter: “We, like HBO, are advertising free. That remains a deep part of our brand proposition; when you read speculation that we are moving into selling advertising, be confident that this is false. We believe we will have a more valuable business in the long term by staying out of competing for ad revenue and instead entirely focusing on competing for viewer satisfaction.”
