I knew this was The Onion because the title promised Netflix released "a few good shows recently".

All Netflix does these days is constantly change the thumbnails of old shows to trick users into thinking they are new.

Titles too now. I watched a bit of anime on Netflix recently, and besides trying to shove all their anime down my throat now, I even got recommended a show I had already watched, but with its Japanese title.

"New Releases"... Funny how the watched progress bar is halfway through that film

Both the source of all your individual problems and lead of the administration that does so many good things that you don't give two seconds of thought to...

He’ll be there to support you all as you complain about the size of the snack foods you’re eating as you watch those shows. He really has everyone’s best interests in mind\s.

Any good Netflix shows lately?

If you like anime they licensed some good shows. Delicious in dungeon is good.

I'm always open to a new anime even if I don't consider myself an aficionado.

Three Body Problem

3 Body Problem wasn’t utter shit. It’s a bit too “Look, we are like that other Netflix show Dark” but Dark was actually written by smart people, while 3BP is written by… Dumb & Dumber, David Benioff and DB Weiss

I haven't seen it, but apparently Baby Reindeer is getting good reviews.

It is good, but heavy content warning for SA and rape.

"I did that!" - Joe Biden sticker pointing at your comment.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

What did it say?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Dunno if I'll get it perfectly, but something like "swing and a miss from The Onion. But I'm glad they feel like they can do that 🤙"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Swing and a miss from this guy

I think it accurately portrays the average American’s understanding of presidential power.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Pretty much.

Once again predicting actual future news.

Whatever happened to the scruffy unhoused looking candidate who wore a boot on his head, anyway? Maybe he could make a comeback and split the "none of these asshats give a shit about me, anyway" voting block...

Vermin Supreme, he promised me a pony!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Yes. It was Vermin Supreme. Thank you!

I got a bit confused at first but then read the name of the community. Lol

The entire writer room and production staff behind The Witcher adaptation should have been fired. But nah, Netflix's idea of exclusives is quantity over quality.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I kept watching the show thinking it was going to get better but it just got worse and worse. I guess if you know nothing about the books or games it might be ok. That was truly horrible though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I know nothing about the books or games, reckon I could watch it?

Actually that's a lie, because of social media I know it's set in ancient White Person Land where anyone of any colour other than milk will take me right out of the immersion. I'm guessing I shouldn't watch it then.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

set in ancient White Person Land

? You mean Europe? The setting is based on Poland.

There's a black elf. People lost their shit.

Netflix is the modern incarnation of FOX television FR

I'm old, so I compare it to the bottom shelves at Blockbuster
