Netflix Numpties

Are you following the algorithm?

Another week, another discussion! This time, we speak about current trends in streaming subscriptions and the entertainment industry. We share our personal experiences with services like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney +, Paramount, and Apple TV, noting our struggles with accumulating too many subscriptions and the resulting decline in quality content, especially documentaries.

A significant portion of the conversation focuses on the article about the supposed Netflix "algorithm" for creating bland, yet popular, movies, contrasting this with highly memorable series like "Slow Horses."

Finally, we examine the ongoing speculation about Amazon's choice for the next James Bond, expressing scepticism about the selection process and predicting a potentially misguided decision.
