Netflix is the only way to watch British Baking Show though. Maybe I will just sign up once a year to get my fix of tarts and meat pies being made in a tent in the middle of the English countryside.




That is the smart play. Cancel for six months then sign up again. Then watch all the good shows over three months, then repeat the cycle.

Huh? What does that mean? We are not sharing our account with anyone and we pay $15 for Netflix!

Netflix is now $15.49/month. HBO is $14.99/month and hasn’t changed in years.


$14.99 for HBO? What's there to watch?


Great television shows, movies, and documentaries.
Netflix can’t compare. Netflix has House of Cards, Stranger Things, Squid Game, Breaking Bad, and British Baking show. Most of the rest is fluff or easily accessible elsewhere.

Righteous Gemstones
Hacks
Doctor Who
The Gilded Age
Chernobyl
8 bit Christmas
All of the Harry Potter movies
All of the LOTR movies
Sex lives of College Girls
Girls
Mare of Easttown
Insecure

I just got a notification about the price increase from Netflix. It’s now $1 more/month than HBO. I feel like cancelling in protest. The quality of programming isn’t even really comparable.

Netflix is the only way to watch British Baking Show though. Maybe I will just sign up once a year to get my fix of tarts and meat pies being made in a tent in the middle of the English countryside.
