I have subscriptions to Netflix, Apple TV, Max & Prime and have just spent an hour looking for something to watch and nothing is appealing.
Feel like cancelling them all, does anyone else feel like this?!
Is there anything good to watch on these?
Recommendations??

I’ve watched all the good stuff on Apple Netflix etc. Waiting new series of The Boys, Slow horses etc.
If you like murder mystery itx app has all the Vera/Poriot etc. Comedy Channel 4 app has Drop the dead donkey (still funny) Father Ted etc

Where did you stream Tehran please? I looked and can only see Apple TV and unfortunately our smart tv doesn’t support it.

I cancelled Netflix for about a year. I’ve treated myself for a month so it feels quite special and new! I’m making my way through the new stuff. Loved Baby Reindeer! Now checking in on my old favourites - currently binging The Good Place 💕

We are prefering Iplayer, ITVX and 5 for miniseries. We like crime dramas though.

Last year we cancelled most of our subscriptions, and decided to have only 1 at a time. If there are films or series on other streaming services that we hear about or people recommend, we write them down. We currently have Max, but after the summer we'll probably switch to Netflix as we have a list of several things we want to watch on there.

Cancel all your subscriptions.
When something you want to watch comes up then just get the subscription service for 1 month then cancel. (I keep BBC as I do watch occasional bits on that and I listen to bbc radio/oodcasts a lot)

I used to watch a lot of TV but there's so much low quality stuff out there.
Better to reduce how much you watch but watch better quality programmes
