It does us no good to get Finn Wolfhard a raise. All that will accomplish is to raise our subscription fees to cover it.

Netflix probably doesn’t care if the data is wrong. They just need to say “its wrong, way off, what a joke” and repeat indefinitely. They just need to never say what the true numbers are, because that wouldn’t benefit them,

Exactly. This is all about negotiations.

This is all pretty easy to figure out. Netflix doesn’t release numbers because there’s nothing in it for them. If viewership is better than we think, then the people who make or license content for them will try to negotiate more money. If viewership is worse than we think, then Netflix looks bad to subscribers and…

Yeah I figure Holden is supposed to be such an oddball that basically he lucked out getting a girlfriend who is out of his league because he’s lucky to be a gorgeous looking oddball. I guess it works.

I eagerly await Life During Wartime in a future episode.

Because they are also doing 800 TV series.

Hey! I enjoyed The OA.

Yeah and having a guy at work tell me about driving his wife, two little girls, in-laws and dog out of that inferno after being woken up at midnight is also pretty damn scary.

Honestly I didn’t see any huge jump between 1, 2 and 3. But I watched them like you’d watch a movie. I don’t think in terms of episodes anymore...

Good call. I didn’t watch the pilot as a pilot, I saw it back to back with episode 2. If the pilot sucked, I didn’t notice. It was just setup for the story.

Three episodes in, I’m sold. I love being able to see a “cop show” in which the creators feel no compulsion to throw in car chases and shootouts. It’s about people talking in a room, imagine that.

“the battle for #1 streaming platform is heating up.”

Hulu’s parent companies are making a concerted effort to fight Netflix by yanking content. Especially anything from Comcast (NBC, SyFy) or Fox (and FX). CBS and Disney/ABC have their own streaming strategies.

Yeah. She’s young, she needs to learn when to recognize it’s time to get the fuck out.

The girl in the first letter is too young and naive to know that she’s in a shitty relationship and should get out asap. If that’s the best relationship she’s ever been in, that just means she’s had some very bad experiences and has let her standards slip or never developed standards to begin with.

He’ll never go back to network TV. It’s a sinking ship.

Poor marketing, if the goal is to lure away Netflix customers. Netflix customers hate ads. Offer a sweet (if temporary) deal on the ad-free tier and this would be far more effective.

Traffic flowing freely on an LA freeway? What is that, science fiction?

I can see how Bojack might not be to everyone’s tastes.
