Netflix (Streaming) Thread!

For those that don't know. The last of the Marvel shows, Jessica Jones and Punisher, have been canceled. Who knows if they will continue when they move, more below.

If you have not seen them and want to you should do so as these will probably be all removed some time later this year as Disney will be introducing their streaming services and they own the rights to Marvel and should be pulling all their content out of Netflix. They own Disney, ABC, Marvel Studios, Lucas Films and others.

Now, I did finish Medici which I liked and have now started a series called Happy. 1st episode had a rough start but by the end I found certain elements quite funny. Watched 3 episodes last night and it's just entertaining enough to finish the series.

My son and I binge-watched that series. We loved it. My son NEVER watches TV, which means that "Happy" was just quirky enough to hold his attention.

When you throw in that all the Marvel & Star Wars movies now go to Netflix 1st before any cable movie channel (I assume they outbid HBO, Showtime, etc.) that is really bizarre

Think about it this way, Disney is in direct competition with HBO (owned by Time Warner) and Showtime (owned by CBS) so it makes sense to put the bulk of their stuff on Netflix which they were not competing with at least in the beginning. That has changed with Netflix mass investment into original content in series and movies.

I heard rumor about Disney stream service 2 years ago which is why I thought it was strange they put so many of their animated movies on Netflix but it makes sense. They have hooked, like my grandson, on the ability to watch their movies over and over anytime on their tv, phones and tablets. So when it is only on Disney stream my daughter will be signing up like millions of other families.

I did finish Happy and it was quirky and funny but the subject matter, even though I knew it was heading that way, always leaves me uneasy.
