Until the streaming services go full circle: show is only visible money to Friday next episode next week. When all episodes are "aired" they start from episode one from Monday to Friday. So that you need to be subscribed for several months. (that's when they go back to more episodes which they just cut to 10)

Yeah, but at this point the streaming service is not better than the cable + PVR.

Presumably they'd still be ad-free.

Unlikely. I pay for NowTV in the UK and that is showing more and more ads

Or at least I did, until they put the price up and I noticed they had bundled in another service without me realising and I was actually paying 3 times more than I thought. Had been meaning to cancel for a while, but that made me pull the trigger
