That depends. I pay for HBO for both old and new, honestly. I just now started watching Curb Your Enthusiasm, and I watch Game of Thrones, Veep, Silicon Valley, and Last Week Tonight regularly. That last one runs almost all year. I’ve re-watched The Newsroom twice. I still haven’t watched The Sopranos or The Wire, but

Anyone paying $100+ a month for the television portion of their cable bill either isn’t paying attention, or is willfully paying for a package that includes every channel known to man because they want to.

I’m not so sure. If they load it up with as much of the DC library as exists? There could be a market for it. I still think it’s a terrible situation and I resent the fuck out of yet another media company splintering the subscription landscape. But I just came up with a list of hundreds upon hundreds of hours of

They’ll have more than enough. Pull together all the DC-related content going all the way back to the early Superman stuff? The earliest Batman stuff? Then you’ve got 60's Batman, 70's Wonder Woman, ten years worth of Super Friends, years of Batman: TAS, Superman: TAS, Justice League, JLU, Batman Beyond, Static Shock,

Yeah, gods forbid they ask us to PAY for media content. The horror!

Everyone in the comments complaining about yet another streaming service you’ll have to subscribe to?

“Organized crime?”

We’ll find out soon enough!

I don’t know if that was supposed to be a nod towards James Bond getting laid at the end of every movie

Why is Tesla’s response to EVERYTHING just “blame the driver”?

Why is this a story?

Tesla has a sometimes defensive relationship with owners making claims about its cars getting into crashes.

For every ensemble/team film that clicks (Guardians, Sneakers, Magnificent Seven, your favorite here)

Goddamn modern writers. 60's Batman would never kill 60's Joker, and 70's Wonder Woman would never blow off the murder of a villain like that.

People keep talking about the paint configuration, but you know what the really weird thing is?

The problem, as I see it, is that stuff like this always glosses over everything terrible about whatever time period it’s set in. It’s understandable, but that doesn’t make it any better, frankly.

[I]t was heartbreaking to see that some of our users were upset to learn about how we monetize our free service.
