This is pretty good, where did you find Shrinking is a limited series because I cant find anything on that, and I could see Adrien Brody making best guest actor for a comedy series
I also think Masters of the Air could make a big splash in this and is being underestimated.

Zaslav had this weird idea that all of the "family oriented" content including kids shows and cartoons should be on Discovery+ and anything like that on HBO Max was dead weight. He probably took one look at it and saw it was a cartoon and axed it immediately.

Reply to The Leftovers, season 2, episode 8, is the weirdest hour of television I have EVER watched. That is all. by TimeTraveler3056
I feel like the show was pretty clear from the beginning that it wasn't going to provide answers and that wasn't really the point. Unlike Lost where from the way the mysteries were presented made getting answers more integral.
That said the show actually does provide a good answer to at least the main mystery at the end. It's ambiguous if the answer is true or not, but you could just choose to take it at face value.

I've heard zero people on the internet talking about Warrior Nun. I watched half the first season, got bored, and haven't gone back. Does this mean it's gotten better?

Reply to comment by Hellpy in As anyone noticed that netflix subtitles are not that good? by Hellpy
It could be worse, though. Crunchyroll, for example, is a streaming service for anime and they only have like subs for 5 languages. Their subs aren't very good either, so I guess it's a general problem in these streaming services that prioritize cheap subs just because they're quickly made and then they don't have to worry about them anymore.
It's dumb, given the fact these companies are investing millions and millions of money in making/acquiring new content for their services and then they think a sub made in a rush by someone who's being underpaid will be good enough.
On the other side, subtitles made by fans are usually good and they don't receive a single penny for it.

This just isn’t true the recruit , Lincoln lawyer , Emily in Paris , bunch of the Korean shows , Tim robinsons show , dead to me , all of the reality tv shows alll got renewed because people watched them and completed them so the budgets were justified it’s a business I don’t know how this isn’t understandable Netflix makes hundred of shows and movies a year we only ever focus on what gets canceled and then just ignore what gets renewed the sandman isn’t anywhere close to Wednesday viewership and it got renewed

Glow was because of Covid not because they didn’t like the show costs just went up too much

Reply to There should be a setting to watch TV shows that aired in the same block together by AvailableUpstairs912
Considering how much everybody wants to bank on nostalgia this would be so perfect, I grew up on the ABC Sitcoms and being able to watch a block of those like they aired would be super cool.

They used to hate Russia and the 9/11 terrorists, too, so this really tracks.

I know and anyone who works in that area knows that too, but sometimes it's impossible to meet those requirement in a line or two. Netflix won't accept that and will force the translator to respect that instruction. They literally can't submit a subtitle which contains a line that has too many characters.

While I agree with this article, Chad was not a funny show and I’m amazed it even got a 2nd season

I feel like all actors need to be told the same thing that many figured out: make all the money you can and star in everything you can because one day the phone will stop ringing.

Not really. In order to NOT get canceled at Netflix, you have to be as big as Wednesday, Stranger Things, or Bridgerton. Netflix constantly canceled niche but really good shows that might take a season or two to catch on, and Netflix terminates those shows too fast. What you’re talking about was never a Netflix complaint and I think you misunderstand the issue with Netflix cancellations in general.
Or you’re trying to be funny in which case haha very good

No way will House of the Dragon get all those additional nominations for people who haven't picked up anything yet, especially after all of the guilds rejected them.

That’s getting deeper into it, yeah. I was just explaining the very basics of the Netflix hate argument related to what he was saying. There’s lots of factors like completion rates, budget, fan reception, popularity, views, individual views, etc to get into. I’m not a Netflix hater despite my comment sounding like one.
