Hating Game Pass Makes You Look Foolish

Part of it was really good, part of it was really bad. I watched it in Korean, yet the parts where they speak English are so terribly voice acted it ruins the whole show. They should have just focused on the participants and leave the investor or whatever part out of it. Very inconsistent. A show like Criminal minds was much more interesting imo.

I think you're not putting things into perspective. Cable tv has had about 70 years to build up a great library of shows. It's been less than 10 years since the first original Netflix show released. Within that short time, I think most would agree we've gotten some great content that will continue to show.

I like the jump from Squid Game to Criminal Minds. Not really comparable but okay. 

When it comes to sadistic killing scenarios, there are commonalities.

I realize it's mostly the weekly episodic content that I miss. Tbh I don't like binge watching one bit. Yet most stuff on Streaming is made for binge watching. You can of course pace it yourself. Snowpiercer was good. That had a new episode 'airing' each week which makes it imo a lot better than watching multiple episodes in one go or every night.

Anyway, what I miss most is the "What's on tonight" instead of what shall we watch now out of this endless list of options. It feels like we spend more time watching the Netflix menu than actual shows... Plus it was always cool when regular (weekly) shows played in on (local) current events. That's something that simply doesn't work with global streaming. But it is nice to see different cultures. I used to watch foreign movies all the time, now you can watch foreign tv shows as well. Streaming gave me 'Dark', that alone makes it worth it. I doubt that would have ever aired on cable here.
