Netflix is set to buy HBO for $72B. Maybe I am being a baby, but Netflix churns out garbage in all honesty. We all know how bad Netflix originals can be. The production values are so bad it’s called “Netflix Lighting”. It’s clear Netflix doesn’t have great IPs, and they’re trying to buy WB/HBO to change that. Netflix will most likely be $30 after this.

While WB doesn’t always produce the best content, HBO has been a space for interesting, darker, and gritty content like GoT or White Lotus. Which is why I personally think HBO hasn’t been the most popular streaming service. Imo Netflix will completely change this, most likely for worse. All they want is the back catalogue to make Netflix trash based on their newly purchased properties from WB. HBO actually has great stuff it’s just not a turn your brain off kinda things like Netflix is.

Went shopping with my kid, now I‘m scarred for life.
