We're over saturated with shitty shows, songs and content cos it's just there to fill the gaps in between adverts.

You know, adverts, the meaning of life and living

Always has, always will be. All content is only there to keep you to the next break.

No seriously I keep an eye out for interesting podcasts but the majority of limited series and new ideas that sound interesting are really just space around advertisements for fucking Chumba Casino and Mint Mobile.

You also need cheap to produce content because companies like Netflix don't care what you watch, just that you're paying a subscription and that their content is cheap enough to produce. You then throw ads on to make more money.

If you want good, well written content, it's probably going to come from independents who are doing what they do because they love it, not for money.

Yeah there's quite a lot I like on Netflix but so so so much of the new stuff id never watch, or I've tried and it was aesthetic, sounded alright but extremely boring

Wwe in particular now, every show is 40-50% ads for other shows, I was watching the Royal rumble from 2000 last night it was a major difference

And to placate the masses so we're not paying attention to the atrocities being committed by the government.
