And yet you just highlighted some of their best work lol. Which isn't saying a whole lot.

Haha that's the whole point! There best work, isn't.

Like, the first few Stranger Things were great, and House of Cards was great until the boondoggle of an end (which wasn't the creators fault bc of all the Spacey nonsense). That's about it.

Agreed. I loved seasons 1&2 of stranger things but I was over it less than halfway through the third season. But they had a low budget high school zombie show that was enjoyable but they ended it immediately. Like, I don't know what their issue is, but the fact that they don't understand their audience is clear. The fact that they're still around is owed to the fact that they were first to market, and now have lots of content. But most of the good stuff is just rented by Netflix from other companies.

Yeah exactly. It's like they're making 'content' to keep subscribers and nothing else.
