Because Now TV is a piece of shit.

it’s a quantity/quality problem. you really need to need to rely on word of mouth because there’s just so much to sort through and a lot of it is bad or could have been better. Sure , you get your hits like squid games that it’s hard to not know about it , but something like Severance on Apple TV + , I probably wouldn’t have watched it on my own despite having the service.

Yup, I haven't watched a TV series in ages other than those "gameshows" like "Is it Cake" or whatever, and we're mostly there to guess who'll win.

My kids watch lots of shows, but I would honestly be fine cancelling my subscriptions and just playing video games if it wasn't for them.
