DonS 3,063 Posted April 16, 2018 Wife and I watched first episode. Was ok, will see if it gets better in the next few episodes. Â One thing that distracted me was that the diversity police struck again. One of the Robinson kids is now a black girl. Was trying to pick up clues as to whether she was from a previous marriage for one of the parents or what. Â Oh, and they decided to make Dr. Smith a woman. Surprised they had the balls to keep her white. Will probably turn out to be LGBT to satisfy that checkbox. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,302 Posted April 16, 2018 Netflix is really pumping these things out. Its no longer where you try to watch most of them. Just the select few that interest you, like traditional tv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted April 16, 2018 Netflix is really pumping these things out. Its no longer where you try to watch most of them. Just the select few that interest you, like traditional tv Indeed. What happens is they got popular and went from dozens of hopeful writers and producers pitching shows to them weekly to what I now imagine is an endless line of them. Every writer and their mother wants their show on Netflix. Before their only option was to schlep their way through the tired old fox/abc etc networks.

Â This...they also seem to get one new movie worth checking out per month, that's it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,302 Posted April 16, 2018 Â This...they also seem to get one new movie worth checking out per month, that's it. Theyre getting into making movies too. Far cheaper to make the content than to license it from someone else, especially now with all the competition in streaming services Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted April 16, 2018 Yeah, except their movies have been sucking pretty badly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,302 Posted April 16, 2018 Yeah, except their movies have been sucking pretty badly. They are much better at tv for whatever reason. Youd think theyd have tons of good indie filmmakers to pick from but apparently not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shotsup 831 Posted April 16, 2018 Yeah, except their movies have been sucking pretty badly. Yeah because they signed unfunny talent. Like Adam Sandler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Guy 1,400 Posted April 16, 2018 I've seen about 1/2 of the 1st episode so far.....pretty good imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted April 17, 2018 Yeah because they signed unfunny talent. Like Adam Sandler. They made some movie with Brad Pitt as a general. It sucked. The Outsider with Jared Leto, it sucked. The Titan with Sam Worthington, it sucked. The end was really focking stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ROCKFORD 134 Posted April 17, 2018 thought about watching it, but watched casino and fellowship instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
