Rant Alert About Netflix

We've used Netflix combined with Amazon Prime video for several years to ditch high cable costs. We spent $243/ year for our home entertainment needs. Recently, Netflix replaced the 5 star rating system with a thumbs up or thumbs down due to the customer having a hard time deciding how to rate a video series. ARE YOU SERIOUS?!

These are the same idiots that caused Burger King to stop selling the 1/3 pound burger because the customer thought it was smaller than the 1/4 pounder. Listen, people are generally stupid. I mean, if you have to put warning labels on hair dryers to NOT use them in the shower, well...we have a problem.



I'm rating Netflix a big thumbs down for caving to the intellectual deficit in America.

    It is sad, isn't it? Some schools only give pass or fail now, instead of grades. And I know you've read about the schools that don't have Valedictorians or Principals Lists for good grades, etc. It annoys me as much as it is depressing.

    We used to do netflix, but our internet always ran over. AT&T DSL is all that comes here.
    We use Direct TV for our shows now.
    You all be safe and have a Blessed week.

      That's why at our house. the educational process continues 24/7. We still love Netflix, just hate that they caved to the lowest common denominator.
