Proving exactly why Netflix isn’t worth subscribing to

How so? KAOS was brilliant. Have you seen it? Season 1 didn’t finish on a cliffhanger.

I saw it, it was good, but it’s now permanently less than 10 hours of show, and it isn’t a fully resolved story. That’s not what i want from a streaming service.

I mean, it was multiple pretty massive cliffhangers…

As far as story arcs types go, Kaos S1 was far more complete than “multiple pretty massive cliffhangers” warrants IMHO.

Even though the creator envisioned 3 seasons to fully tell the story, they did an excellent job in making season 1 entertaining, and worth watching in of itself. Which cannot be said for many other shows…

Never commit yourself to a Netflix show until you know more seasons are coming.

First seasons don’t get the numbers that Netflix wants because everyone knows to wait for the 2-3 season.

It’s a loop that Netflix is now in lol

1899 was my last straw. At that point I realized I was only hanging on for Tim Robinson.

Luckily I never found a pirated version with the original audio and I don’t like dubs in live-action, so I never watched it.

Probably not worth it now, eh?

Lol it’s actually very important to watch it without dubs. The show is filled with people interacting who don’t speak the same language, which makes it interesting. Dubs ruin that. Netflix in their wisdom defaulted to dubs, and fortunately I learned to correct that after about three episodes.

That is rule even waiting for more than 2 seasons… But I forgot about it the other day when my wife and I wanted to find something fast to watch and selected Kaos :(. We didn’t even intended to keep watching or expectations of enjoying it as much as we did. That sucks.

Havent had netflix for a long time now. I sail the high seas.

I don’t even bother with new shows anymore - no point getting invested in something thatll be cancelled anyway. And a lot of series these days turn out to be trash, and not worth even trying.

Absolutely, I wish I could forget it and re-watch it for the first time. It’s really good.

I also enjoyed Criminal Record, it’s much more intelligent than 99% of shows out there. And it has a bad-ass detective.

Seconding this! Show is great, and Gary Oldman really shines

Ikr? I think i ditched Netflix 2 years ago. Sailing the high seas again after a long time. It was all good when Netflix was the one streaming platform, featuring almost everything.

Don’t miss out on some good new shows. But i would rather look at Amazon’s and Apple’s releases for good, new, series. They also tend to not cancel series as often as Netflix does.

As much as I hate Amazon as a corporation, they actually make good creative decisions with their streaming offerings. I really liked Patriot back in the day and was surprised

Funny you say that, because Amazon seems to cancel the few shows I get invested in.
