How and why the show was greenlit and funded is beyond me.
Could explain the issues currently surrounding Netflix. What started as a great company with a good catalogue of TV series, movies and original concept stories (Stranger Things) has quickly descended into cooking and reality based shows creeping in. This was the very reason for me escaping from commercial television. Of course Netflix has some stiff competition as other streaming giants begin to withdraw their property...and if that's not possible they will buy up a company. Think Disney+ and their purchase of the Marvel Universe and 21st Century Fox.
This past week has seen Netflix critical of customer password sharing. Not sure what PR company is whispering into the ears of Netflix but that didn't sit too well with their subscriber base. The general consensus is customers are peeling back on life's little luxuries as inflation begins to rise and the cost of staples goes up. I'm not sure how other countries are fairing but here in Australia groceries have crept up recently but more so fuel. It doesn't help Netflix has jacked up their subscription fees only to then witness this mob hand over an exorbitant amount of money to a
Royal couple to provide some comfort viewing.
I cancelled my Netflix subscription several weeks ago and at this stage there is nothing on that platform which is tempting me to return. So before the likes of Netflix think about outwardly condemning their shrinking subscription base and share holders yelling, "Sell, sell, sell," how about they look internally and see what is causing us to hit the cancel button.
