I don't think I would either, and I don't. You gotta get somebody's login, and grab and HBOgo login while you're at it. Game of Thrones starts pretty soon.

Honest question:

Is fraud the reason that our "entertainment" is so shitty and intolerable?

Ideological zeal is why it is so shitty and intolerable.

I think television is going in a pretty good direction. So I guess using my brother's Netflix is responsible for that. I've never looked into Netflix' TOS, do they want you to buy a Netflix account per room? Per home? Per family?

Anyways, TV could go back to the way it was in the gay ass 80s, is what you really want though?

And yet you're always going on about sports and porn.

Television surpassed movies long ago and is still in a golden age as far as I can tell. Peak TV is really a thing, while movies as a medium have gone to complete to shit, they are almost completely void of any new ideas, merely recycling old IP's with big name recognition.

Why don't you just ask to use someone else's Netflix subscriptions? I personally, allow my two sisters and parents to use mine.

Chappelle, 1 star? Am I missing a joke? Both specials have 5 stars.
Civil War is just okay.

How long ago?

I am watching Marco Polo and a Serbian dramedy + Star Wars Rebels.
