With the whole Hollywood strike going on it got me thinking - there is SO much content that if something weird were to happen whereby no more movies or TV shows were to ever be made, I’d be fine with the sheer amount of content that has been generated up to this day. Like, if some weird, I don’t know, space temporal displacement happened whereby Hollywood (or hell, anyone - BBC, Australian TV, etc.) were able to make anything else then there is enough content available for a lifetime regardless.

Obviously in saying that it would mean an entire industry would be out of work permanently… so this hypothetical situation has massive economic pressures as well. But still… this strike could go on for years and I’d still be playing catch up.

The sad truth is there isnt much interesting coming out these days either. The current season of the Witcher is almost unwatchable. Secret Invasion is “Meh” at best. Silo was disappointing. I couldn’t tell you the last thing we loved, beyond probably Picard? But even that had a horrible first 2 seasons. Grand Tour Eurocrash was ok. I am excited about Thank God You’re Here though.

I hate how much Disney have churned out their TV shows. They fell into the same trap that Netflix did with the Defenders - it started out so promising only to become a bloated, overdrawn mess.

I really don’t care about investing more time on the Witcher since Henry Cavill left. If he felt it was worth ditching the show because the writers were getting it wrong, then why the fuck would I bother with it either?

Meanwhile there’s shows I haven’t see in forever that I’d love to re-watch. Sopranos, Breaking Bad (and I haven’t seen Better Call Saul yet), Daredevil and Jessica Jones… there’s too many to list actually.

And yes - I’m with you on that as well about TGYH. Aussie TV can be so frustrating sometimes since they’ll be on a winner only to can it for no real good reason. Chanel 7 are dickheads for buying it only to can it after what, two seasons?

I wish they’d bring back Good News Week.
