I guess "Disney Work" seemed stupid. Disney has announced three things, (1) It will be cheaper than Netflix, (2) It will have less content than Netflix, and (3) They will not pull Marvel series that exist on Netflix or FX. Here are the nine best Marvel series on Netflix, ranked from worst to best. 9. “Iron Fist” (Season 1) 8. “The Defenders” (Season 1) 7. “Luke Cage” (Season 1) 6. “Jessica Jones” (Season 2) 5. “The Punisher” (Season 2) 4. “Daredevil” (Season 2) 3. “Luke Cage” (Season 2) 2. “Jessica Jones” (Season 1) 1. “Daredevil” (Season 1) Disney now owns 60% of Hulu, so it is not clear what they will do there. |

I checked out some Luke and Jessica. I just don't find stories about super powers compelling. The few episodes of Luke I did watch, the only thing that impressed me were the great bands at the nightclub. I want edgy with good writing On Netflix currently watching Sacred Games, Altered carbon, Ozark season 2 and Black mirror Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

Black Mirror is too edgy for me. I admit to watching Altered Carbon, but I am not proud of it. |

All pure crap, big surprise. 95% of Nflix orig series are crapola. The difference between a real network and Nflix is, the real network will look at dozens of pilots and choose a few to take a chance on. Nflix looks at dozens of pilots and gives them the green light. The crap they put out is damned embarrassing. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

This coming from the guy who hates Stranger Things, one of Netflix's biggest (if not THE biggest) hits. I suspect the Netflix execs wouldn't rely too much on the opinion of EB... “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Ever read all the one star comments about that stupid show before Nflix banned comments? I was not alone in finding it awful. Always read neg comments first, that's where all the smart people are. Anybody with half a brain can love a show, and usually do.. Why do you think they banned comments. Because their shows are so universally loved? Hell no, they were getting TONS of negs, so bye bye comments section. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I never ever read one star reviews All the greatest movies ever made have some 1 star reviews on IMDB. Its meaningless. I check IMDB all the time regarding what to watch on netflix. I look at the overall score rather then search for what the haters hate. Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

It's the opposite of meaningless. But you love everything, you have no idea how to tell good from bad. I wouldn't read comments at all if that was me. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
