Was off Netflix for a while because of exorbitant rates abd me not wanting to fund woke content.
But enrolled a couple of months back.
Glued to the following shows
-Cobra Kai- Brilliant sequels to karate kid series. Cool ones no heavy stuff.
-House of cards. Now miss seeing it before. Too deep. Excellent performance by Kevin Spacey. Made me catch up on his other movies like ‘negotiatir’

I too remove the Netflix subscription every 3-4 months, once I stop finding good content.. and sign up again when I hear of good stuff.
I do realize these Netflix people have given targets to series makers to include progressive liberal content, because we Indians from 3rd world country are so backward. Like showing lesbian cop with a surrogate child (Madhuri's series - The Fame Game), it didn't add to the story, to me it felt like target fulfilment. Many such subtle stuff thrown around.

Both Netflix and prime (slightly less than Netflix) have to include stuff showing cow lynching, etc. They are big on ‘far left’ US like AOC (bringing down the house). There were series by Oliver stone. I checked on what he wrote about Ukraine invasion and for a change shree with him. |

I tend to not enjoy cussing in TV or movies for no reason, like in some situation it makes sense and is believable, but Netflix and Prime series have a lot of cussing. Impossible to watch a minute without hearing F*ck,  , etc Very off-putting when it doesn't go with the story. I'm yet to try out Zee5, I hear it has some decent desi content. Don't think it has an app that can be setup on my LG TV. |

Hulu plus had enough for me. It is kids who wanted Netflix. I watch it more to recover the amount I am shelling out but might go back. I have a few marvel movies plus cars to cover in Disney plus. |

Wokeflix almost decided what you see. I ended up putting ANEK a while back almost in error. Decided to check once again on what it was. Starting scene was gross. Showed Indians as focused on Haryana and calling NE folks as Chinese. Then credits Roll in Saw basharat peer of Haider fame there. The. Realized where all this was heading. Disliked it and removed it from watch history. Wil give some gaali galoch in Netflix reviews. I use my india account now. Would this movie be accessible in India. I can claim that they should restrict anti Indian movies to Indian accounts.

There are free services IMDbtv (now righty called freevee) and Tubi TV.
50 shades of grey which was discussed a lot in EC is now on Tubi TV. Earlier it was in IMDb TV. Saw a part of it and was gone before I realized
