      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.

        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.

          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.

    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.

    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…

      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.

      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
