No one ever went broke selling ads on pages where very popular things are declared to actually be bad.

I don't know if it was shot on film or video, but either way they really should've introduced HBO Max with as high-quality a version of it possible with the new logo switched out for the Feature Presentation.

Keep it exactly as-is and just fade to a full-res version as the logo comes in.

Prime is ugly but it's fast.

Netflix is honestly the best, the only complaint I have is the auto-previews being too loud

If you go to netflix website there is a setting to turn off the auto-previews.

Shoes, especially tall shoes like that one, are a serious tripping hazard. Jumping is a good way to avoid it safely.

I just signed up for a Hulu trial for the first time ever. I watched the first episode of It's Always Sunny and it looks like absolute garbage - low resolution and blurry. Other streaming video content (Netflix, HBO) looks great. Is this a problem with Hulu or the show itself? Does it get better?

It's part of the charm, this isn't prestige TV.

If it's a Sturgill Simpson album then you should definitely open and listen to it (assuming you have a way to listen to actual CDs?).

The first half of an Alone season is fun as you watch the totally unprepared go home, but it always ends up a straightforward calculation of who will take longest to starve.

White dreadlock guy throwing pottery in a three-piece suit and tie was pretty chill once you get over the unfortunate first impression based on appearance.

I can't get enough of english people being very politely competitive.


edit: Also can't get enough of super tough guys on Alone calling for a pickup during or after the first night because they heard a noise.

My two favorites in season 1 are the cop who tapped out within 48 hours because he heard a wolf noise and the survival expert who drank unpurified river water and got super sick.

Those were my favorites too. Best part was the cop coming in all "I deal with 'animals' on the street every day, this will be a piece of cake." Also technically the guy who got sick from the water thought that he was purifying by pouring it over some moss. :lol:

Behavior that weirded me out the most was the guy who got yanked by the doctor for starving himself while also building up an impressive cache of dried fish. And then he came back to try again in the all-stars season!

Dominique Tipper’s can sound forced at times too, but it almost fits her character just because she’s constantly around Inners now instead of Belters. It’s like someone moving and losing most of their accent over time.

Google says that it is on Hulu, and that it and the sequel have 97% and 100%, respectively, on Rotten Tomatoes. Unclear if this is a "so bad it's good" situation.
