Genuinely didn’t know it was still a thing.

Britbox,more like shitbox.

Netflix have released viewer data from Jan- Jun this year and made it available as a spreadsheet here- https://about.netflix.com/en/news/what-we-watched-a-netflix-engagement-report

 

Unfortunately, it uses a bit of a weird metric- total hours watched- but it's quite interesting nevertheless, and the spreadsheet is only about 680Kb. Here's the top 50 over that period-

Looking at that list makes me happy we cancelled it about 18 months ago.

But those top viewed things are what makes Netflix churn out more of while the half decent niche type programmes are jettisoned.

Well if no one's watching something then of course they'll bin it, every streaming company's the same.

 

What got cancelled that you were watching? The only one I can think of that I'd miss is Manhunter, and that was because it cost so much with Fincher going crazy with CGI.

House of Usher 

1899 (Cancelled)

Top Boy 

 

The only good things they've had on there this year, from memory. Might have missed one or two.

I quite enjoyed A Nearly Normal Family, Bodies, One Piece, Fisk and Wednesday too, and the latest Black Mirror series was OK but a bit patchy. I thought Beef was good, but need to finish that off.

I was surprised and a bit gutted they stopped that where they did. Loved that programme

Yeah, come to think of it, it has been fucking shite for a while now. Maybe since the onus of driving these Netflix specials - it has lost its way.

 

We’ve got a nearly 4 year old, so he gets a lot of use out of it on car journeys and things when we download stuff for him, so not ready to get rid yet, but not far off

[Clem H Fandango]

New series of Archer tomorrow night.

 

 

[Carvalho Diablo]

Real Debrid is better than all of these streaming services put together.

[Anubis]

I’m sure I’ve put this in the TV thread but steer clear of Obliterated. It’s fucking horrendous. Like Jesus dying for your sins, I watched episode one so that you don’t have to.

Cheers- was thinking of watching that now that Reacher is being released piecemeal by those Amazon bastards.

The first ten minutes of it seemed promising then after that nothing happens. Fucking awful film

Why has Timothy Spall turned into Chick Norris.

I like him as an actor but wouldn't call him a chick.

Had to get rid of ours a while back. I tended to enjoy the hidden stuff which was often foreign language. I have no idea now so just go with recommendations from here.
