I wonder how many great scripts written by patriots and God loving people were turned down by the network only to pick the worst scripts for tv shows as long as all are checkmarked - gay, sex, drugs, inter-racial, blood, violence, mental problems, narcissism, freaks, more freaks, no matter how illogical and boring the plots are.
yep.. i remember this one show the colored girl got on a plane with 2 white males and the plane went down and she had to save the white male because he couldn't swim, and he works for National Geographic. We turned off that garbage show immediately. The blatant propaganda is sickening.
We only watch Korean shows these days because it's all just one race and it's only about justice and family. Same with Indian and Chinese shows.
There are a few really good Korean shows out there. Don't remember the name off hand but there was one about a detective that gets killed and has to come back in another body to solve his crime and others.
There was another one about time travelers that was great, too.
Not particularly shocking. Most of the Big Studios completely botched Streaming to a spectacular extent and turned it into a money pit. They realistically would have been better off banding together in groups of two or three per streaming service. To pool their content. Instead of spending out the ass trying to fill each studio’s personal individual streaming services.
Paramount in particular was struggling with making their IP popular again. And spectacularly botched a couple launches of new IP that could have led to merchandise deals and been licenses to print money. Such as Halo. T.V has just been in a general decline. This all came on the Heels of the Union Strikes. Where the demands were for more money and benefits the studios couldn’t really afford. You don’t ask Dad for a Pony when money is tight.
I used to be an Amazon Prime member. Half to get the fast shipping (that disappeared) and half to watch old Star Trek episodes.
Once Paramont pulled their IP from Amazon, that killed my reason for Prime since, by then, Amazon couldn't or wouldn't ship anything inside of a week.
Paramount Plus wanted too much per month just to access what I had on Amazon for "free".
So not only did they lose the income stream from Prime that didn't materialize with Paramount Plus, they helped put the nail in the coffin to Amazon's Prime income stream from me.
And it turns out I can do a search on Yandex and find just about anything in Parmount Plus catalog streamed for free if I don't mind getting it from Russia or Eastern Europe - something that probably wouldn't be possible if we were on better terms with that part of the world, as we would be if Trump were POTUS.
I've tried to watch SNW. Maybe I'm getting too old - it seems like it's desperately trying to be hip and campy instead of playing it straight and that just ruins it for me.
That's not to say TOS didn't have the same problem on more than a few episodes, but being the OG, I can cut them some slack. And TNG had more than a couple of lame-o episodes too. I don't know, I just don't find SNW believable. I've seen fan films that are more engaging. SNW to me feels like a bunch of actors pretending to play Star Trek instead of it being actual Star Trek, if that makes any sense.

You've noticed that every last show now has to have multiple gay or alphabet characters along with the evil white person and virtuous POC.
Then they put in gratuitous sex for no reason.
Just another reason I pretty much only watch older TV shows.

I agree with you about foreign shows and movies.

oh yeah, I love those scifi/fantasy/reincarnation/after-life themes. Check out some great ones I just watched:
Reborn Rich
Vincenzo
Voice
Marry My Husband
Ghost Doctor
Tomorrow
Missing: The Other Side (2 seasons)
Thanks!
I will have to check them out.
Have you noticed all the vomiting? Someone is throwing up in every show and it’s disgusting.
Make bulimia great again?
So you’re saying communist tranny propaganda isn’t profitable? Shocking.

Now they get nothing from me.
Does that mean no more Cringe Trek?
Discovery is already dead.
I haven't found Strange New Worlds to be that bad. Well, not yet.

Good riddance.
