    As my memory serves that represents two separate management shifts.

    The earlier one was trying to more fully make it a viable streaming service the second to bring its own high quality content.

    However you cut it both relied on ever expanding subscribership which was not sustainable.

    Membership counts that Netflix expected to be built by buzz not quality, even after netflix betrayed their membership by making it Chrystal clear that they dont care about quality, routinely killing quality shows with rather large and loyal fanbases just not giving a fuck....

    A lot like what the NBA has done to their customers.

    People will only tolerate so much of that.

    You either know better and are lying, or else you are really stupid.

    You can let us know which is the critical fault with you.

    I watch lots and lots of foreign TV on Netflix. I'd be more likely to give up HBO and Showtime, which I've had for what?" Forty years?
    Since boxing moved from premium cable to streaming, I've hardly watched the premium channels at all, but for some reason, I'm still paying for them.

    Now that Hollywood is basically ash I have been enjoying small indi films made elsewhere by people who are way better quality than the WOKE.

    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    I think Bosch was on Amazon Prime or another channel I don't get, so no. But I do really love the books.
