They have a ton of reality tv dogshit content that a ton of female subscribers love lol. Personally i hate it but i bet all of our gfs/wives love that shit. Unfortunately you should expect all of the streaming platforms to lean into that bullshit, especially with the writers strike. It will be interesting to see how many people cancel their plans once all of the good shows dry up due to the strike. We are going to be in a content desert for like 2 years at least.

Edit: lol why the actual fuck was I down voted? For criticizing Netflix? Huh??

I'd say a great time to catch up on older shows, but I know that's both not popular and for some reason streaming services are removing older shows.

Netflix has some GREAT older shows. The problem is I have already watched most of them. The good thing is that I probably will watch many again (and again) every so often. They do still trickle in some new content worth watching. The very best thing about netflix and the reason I really hope they stick around is that the interface and presentation is totally USER oriented. Subtitles and skip intro/recap are top-notch (compare with amazon :/) and there are ZERO ads before/after/within the content. When I am already paying $, I hate being blasted with ads for other shows but it really burns my biscuits when I can't skip that crap!

People probably didn't like your reality TV comment but it's true my wife watches that shit lol

Why are people upset with that comment? A lot of girls and women watch reality TV. I thought that was obvious..Reality TV's main target audience is females. I'm not trying to be disrespectful or anything lol. It's just an objective fact.

Because this site is full of people who are very left wing and get upset at the most minor things lol it's pretty funny, I get downvoted a lot it assures me that my opinion is correct and these idiots in here are living in la la land
