We use Sling Blue and never pay a penny to ABC/Disney/ESPN, NFL or Net Flix!

Don’t worry they’ve paid the Obamas millions of $$$ to “develop programming”, so they’ll be fine.

Disney is satanic lite (perhaps more so). The sheer amount of fantasy, Witchcraft, magical spells, fairies, in their productions, either blatant or innuendo, leads people astray, and at such a young age.

Yet the “moral majority” behave as if nothing untoward is happening.

Does this mean that Barry Soetoro, Michael Obama, and Susan Rice will jump ship, leave Netflix, and join Disney?

I don’t understand the hate for Netflix. I always find good things to watch on it including a lot of documentaries. It’s also a great deal, only about $15 a month. Way less than cable television.

We dropped Netflix when Saint Bath House of Man’s Country and his beard were “hired”.

A quick search tells me the first and only project possibly in the works by the septic duo is an adaptation on a Michael Lewis ‘The Fifth Risk’, a scathing and insulting portrayal of the Trump administration.

The Obamas’ production company is named Higher Ground.

Disney is just as reprehensible as Netflix, maybe more so. The landscape is changing though, Disney is trying to buy all of Hulu also, at that point it has a lock on a lot of things.

I find Netflix hit or miss on it’s original offerings, I have that, HULU, and Amazon. So I am not interested in another channel to subscribe to. I will have to evaluate what to keep and let go.

Probably will keep Amazon, the others I will take a look at. I don’t like the fact Disney is going to monopolize the streaming channels, they will end up cutting off their content to Netflix and others to control it all, then how long until they begin to raise prices?

It may be I will have to let them all go and take what I can find for free on my ROKU and read more. I can ween myself all of it if I have to. I gave up cable over a year ago and I don’t miss it or the monthly bill.

Yeah, I get it. Luckily, my kid is on his own and has his own kids.
