How many do you have? I have Amazon Prime and that's it. Good grief, you could spend a fortune on these individual services and how much TV do you really need?

Netflix, Paramount, HBO, Hulu, Apple, YouTube, Disney, Max, Peacock, on and on it goes. No wonder young people can't pay off their student loans or afford food.

None. Plenty to watch free. Ok, maybe not current, latest shows, but I'm ok with that.

The only one I really wanted was Disney, but when they went stupid I decided against it.

Too many. Thankfully I turned a few off recently.

Netflix. When all else fails, Netflix has it.
Hulu - it's CHEAP - and it is a backup for just about anything.
Of course, since I have Amazon, we get Prime.


We watch STARZ for one thing - Outlander. Wife loves it and we watch it together.
When Outlander is through, I cancel it. It's canceled at the moment.

I did get FOX Nation before Christmas because it was like 10, 12 bucks for the year. So I got a year's worth, cheap.
Disney+ - for Doctor Who and Marvel series. I think this round, once Who concludes and I finish Daredevil, off it goes.

I got MAX a several months ago for a year's subscription. For a year only. It's scheduled for non-renewal.

USUALLY - we buy it for a WHILE - and then cancel. For example, I just cancelled Apple+ - I got it for Severance. And off it goes again.

We've subscribed for about a month each, Subscribe to Paramount, Peacock or AMC+ - then cancel.

So - currently - Netflix, Prime, Hulu are on all the time.

Amazon Prime, Netflix, Disney, Fox Nation...plus I still have DirecTV as my mom can't comprehend streaming. She complains her Jitterbug cell phone is too much technology for her, lol.

I'd love to get Disney+ for the Marvel series and Paramount+ for the Star Trek series, but I still can't bring myself to support either.

I have no political thing with either - I enjoy it - or I don't. My handful of bucks a month isn't bankrolling the left.
Lately, the Star Trek series have been weak - I could barely stay awake for Section 31 - it was awful.
Discovery was a waste after the first season or two.

And Disney, at least we get movies like Mufasa for "free". I'm keeping Disney mostly for Who, and frankly, it is ALSO getting a little too woke for me also - trans companions, gay doctors, story lines thinly disguised as woke lessons. If it doesn't improve, they've lost me as a Who fan after twenty plus years.

Netflix. But I need to cancel that. We may have watched 4 movies in the last year on Netflix. We pay breezeline for 80+ channels. That and YouTube satisfy this household of old farts.

Prime, Fox, and YouTube.
I forgot Discovery+ that my daughter let me piggy back on her account. I watched it for a few months and forgot about it. There are just too many things on YouTube that I can waste hours on without paying for.

Hopefully one of those time-wasting YouTube channels you watch for hours is Farmer MD… :shamelessplug:
