Failed my keeper test with the subscription rate hike. Reminded me that I only watch one show every few months.

Somewhat relayed: for a company whose culture recently applauds itself for catering to all sorts of audiences, there’s a significant lack of skin when compared to HBO.

I wonder if Hastings himself would pass it for the CEO position.

Netflix lost my sub when they removed stargate way back in the day.

That started my path down the NAS/PLEX rabbit hole, and 40TB later I don’t regret a thing.

Netflix never willingly removes any popular show. What happens is that the original rights holder doesn't renew the license, because they want it on their own streaming platform.

Netflix is famous for cancelling all their original shows after a season or two instead of considering they might be able to improve them or market them better.

Seconded. I'm only keeping it for my daughter, she's engrossed with a series of unfortunate events.

Thirded. I am keeping the sub only for one reason, otherwise would never have gotten it.

Sigh... CocoMelon for us

If I got rid of Ada Twist Scientist, I would fail my 5yo's keeper test.

We read the books after the series. Very enjoyable.

My daughter loves the books, she's on book 10 now. The book was a recommendation from the staff in our local bookstore, it was a few weeks later that I discovered they had a tv series and it's been a real enjoyment for her to see the characters in her head appear on screen.

Netflix actually cancelled my subscription last year. Their support insisted that I did it myself. A couple months later I started getting the-please-come-back emails.

I guess I wasn't a keeper.

(More seriously, I originally wondered if I was a bystander in some kind of social engineering attack. My best guess is that it was a fat finger error that occurred when another subscriber called in to cancel.)

Truth is, between HBO Max and Amazon Prime, I haven't missed it.

I doubt your story

Maybe you're the unlucky one. For not applying this test to your subscription.
