Well, yeah, there is just so much junk "originals" on streaming services since the studios think the best way to gain subscribers is quantity over quality.

Back in the day, random bad movies are FUN to watch, but now, they are just bad in a boring way.

I don't think anybody wants to attach their name to a bad show, people usually want to be proud of what they worked on. But of course, if the ones insists on pushing out as much """"content""""" as possible at the cost of people's passion, treating people as disposable metrics to pump up the number of shows on your streaming service, then passionless """"content"""" that nobody wants to watch is what you are going to get.

Support the strike, so that there is a possibility that after all this, people can refind their passion and make good, sincere, and human things again.
