But Is It on Netflix? - Streaming Video Service Thread: Hulu, Amazon Prime, Apple TV+, Disney+, Peacock, YouTube TV, AT+T Watch, Philo, Playstation Vue, HBO Max, HBO Now, Facebook Live and many more

It sounds absurdly grim

That's the Wally Lamb adaptation with Ruffalo playing twins. I read the book in high school I think; I recall it being absurdly grim.

Remember when Steven Spielberg was like "FUCK Netflix, that shit ain't cinema." and he went on to develop a show for fucking Apple + and a Quibi show that you can only watch at night

Spielberg thinks only films released in theatres should be eligible for Oscars, and yet he made a TV SHOW called AMAZING STORIES that won 500 academy awards! I'll wait here until he gives them all back.

i've been chortling over quibi since it was announced. was a little afraid they might find a way to not screw the pooch but all playing out as expected. watching internet pioneer jeffrey katzenberg and entertainment legend meg whitman get clowned by tiktok is already like a billion dollars worth of entertainment

re: i know this much is true, i <3 rufalo but the source is the Most Oprah's Book Club Shit Ever and uh nope

if cinemas reopen and have to show old stuff for a year, I'd go and watch Spielberg's 1971 Columbo episode, shit is dope

had no idea that was on YouTube. many thanks

Ok, The Great on Hulu is excellent; it's 1000% more enjoyable than the Helen Mirren Catherine miniseries that was on HBO and bored me to tears.

oh good! i was looking forward to watching that.

wish Night Flight would add more old episodes. I have already watched all 8 that they have up there, a couple >1x!

xpost I think Columbo can be streamed on Amazon, but it's also available to stream for free on ... some other service besides youtube.

the biosphere 2 documentary on hulu - spaceship earth - is a delight. it feels pretty biased towards the weird hippie almost-cult that built the biosphere, but i really enjoyed watching it.

scored by frequent ilxor owen pallett

oh i didn't even catch that

yeah otm it was v good!

Quibi's lineup is unreal
they have a judge show where the judge is......... Chrissy Teigen

yep. where have you been

missed opportunity to resurrect Mock Trial with Judge Reinhold

xpost I think Columbo can be streamed on Amazon, but it's also available to stream for free on ... some other service besides youtube

IMDB TV, which for some reason is a thing, and also the conduit for Columbo to appear on Amazon (it plays with ads in the ad breaks). The Columbo youtube channel shuffles a handful of episodes in and out periodically, as I understand it.

xpost we're going to all feel foolish in the future when people are referring to 30 and 60 minutes shows as extended-Quibis and maxi-Quibis, and movies are known as many-Quibis-sewn-together

Has Jeffrey Katzenberg ever had an actual good idea in either art or business, or had a detectable hand in overseeing any work of moderate quality? Geffen at least had shown good A&R instincts in the '70s

he wasn't responsible for the disney renaissance. maybe moving dreamworks to 3D animation only.

clearly not a good idea for art (taking commercial children's entertainment on its own terms as art), dubious whether making the films look more generic and become more expensive to make in terms of manhours, render time and electricity stands as a good business decision

it's something a normal exec could put on a resume, or a Katzenberg could get written up in profiles, sure

quibi rebooted reno 911, so there’s that

actually, not a reboot so much as a whole new series of the original show

good

'Tuca and Bertie' is getting rescued for a 2nd season on Adult Swimhttps://go.nowth.is/3bYp17E pic.twitter.com/6nLe1zhYkf

yeah i saw an ad on TV for a new season of Reno 911 and i got excited but then I saw it was on Qubi, so oh well guess not

White Lines on Netflix is diverting and entertaining although the lead actress is annoying as is the actor playing her missing brother. It's stupendously dumb the way Outer Breaks is and even shares an almost identical scene with a boat.

I tried watching Medicis but i couldnt get into it

I think maybe i will go back to Narcos and pick up where I left off

Random tweet @Quibi is DOPE...

yesterday I watched a short film on Night Flight called Junior High School that boasted a young Paula Abdul but also featured a baby Ira Kaplan!! That Ira Kaplan!

the film was abysmal tbh but it was amusing and only 33 min

xxp Wondering did he also shill Fyre in a self-described "random tweet"?

so there's a second season of Homecoming on Prime without Julia Roberts?

yep, with Janelle Monae in the lead.
I didn't care enough for season one to get through the third episode; season two is getting worse critical response.

i enjoyed s1, not sure if i'll bother with s2

I like season 2 so far, but I don’t know if it was necessary. I really loved s1.

i can't remember wtf happened in season 1 at all.

I could have sworn I got a push notification from my cell provider that I can get free Quibi, but I haven't bothered following up because I don't want to watch that shit on my phone. Or at all, really.

i guess i should do that. T-Mobile is offering, I think, assuming it hasn't already expired

i can't remember wtf happened in season 1 at all.

that's exactly what bobby cannavale wants!

I forgot he was even in this show. I watched the recap of season 1 the other day and wondered if I'd been so high the night I'd binged it I'd managed to not retain anything, because almost nothing was familiar.

Didn't realize HBO Max was going to have Looney Tunes. Immediately vaults it to the top of the streaming service rankings.

Get high, watch Duck Amuck and then The Searchers - beat that, Netflix

dethpicable

Signed up for HBO Max two months ago. Really disappointed to not find out until launch day that it won’t be available on Roku - our only streaming option. What a joke. I hope this blows up in their faces. Not only do we have to pay for multiple streaming services, we also have to pay for multiple streaming devices to keep up?

That sucks, I was going to replace my piece of shit Apple TV with a Roku soon.

I guess I have to buy an Apple TV now? I mean, I guess that’s the cheaper option as opposed to buying a new gaming platform. Frustrating.

Yeah I was wondering about tha lack of Roku. (I'm not entirely fussed, I ended up with HBO via AT&T being my cell provider so HBO Max is just a free addon as far as I'm concerned.) Various articles about it today, including this:

I did appreciate all the Twitter chatter about how deep the various hubs actually are on the service -- namely, not entirely:
