I distinctly recall trying to watch the first few minutes and wondering to myself how they got the Power Rangers sets & props to look so clean. It was a fetid pile of wet shit otherwise, but the palpable cringe each actor seemed to be trying not to emote along with their lines was entertaining in a way. 🤷🏼♂️🤣
I’ve never heard of it, and my wife & I are on Netflix multiple times a week.
As a side note, other streaming services that took their stuff off of Netflix to make their own service because “hurr durr we want that money!”, have discovered that it’s hard to run and not always profitable. There are a LOT of things that have been gone off of Netflix for awhile that have suddenly started to show back up because content owners have discovered that it’s much easier to let Netflix deal with the infrastructure and just get paid. I remember when Netflix had almost everything you could want to watch in one place, and it was glorious! If you’ve cancelled over the lack of content, maybe give it another look. If you cancelled over the cost, maybe it’s more worth it now?
I’m not a Netflix shill, I just remember the days when it was awesome because of the massive selection, and I’m hopefully seeing it slowly coming back around.
The massive selection existed because cable users paid for it. The big companies made content based on cable customers. Then licensed to netflix for extra profit just like they licensed to other countries’ broadcasters for extra profit.
Then netflix killed the cable income, so it wasn’t profitable to make these shows, netflix wouldn’t pay the cost of licensing these shows for the actual cost so the licenses dropped and everyone had to make their own service’s.
Rather, it’s netflix that is finding out that it’s difficult to make good shows, they lived on licencing other people’s shows, paid for by cable, then when they killed that money source they are struggling to produce good enough content to make their service worth it.
Neither have I and I have the damn screenshot saved. It also looked so utterly meh that I never bothered ever looking it up in the first place. Like this still easily could have passed for the cover of some daddy/mommy porn superhero series with how cheesy it looks.
It’s also highly dependent on viewing history. There’s a ton of Netflix originals I’ve never seen because I don’t watch that kind of show. I don’t think I’ve ever had Bridgerton thrown in my face, but it’s just not my kind of show. This and that one with Mike Meyers I’ve seen a ton of the time, though.
Never heard of it until now, I’m online all the time. Cancelled Netflix 6 months ago since the quantity and quality balance of their content wasn’t worth it anymore with all the price increases.
It felt like it had, at most, a month of advertisement, came out, people realized that was Thad Hamilton and not Raylan Givens, and then it was ignored even by the people who insist that Millar is not a hack.
Also doesn’t help that all the action was horrible. And it was almost instantly compared to The Old Guard where Charlize Theron continued to demonstrate why “dancer with some gymnastics background” is nigh perfection for “visible face” action sequences with stunt actors and masked putties.
Jupiter’s Legacy in case anyone is curious what the show is.
It’s like poetry it rhymes.
The real legacy is the legacy’s we made about this legacy
Legacy’s what?
Legacy’s Nutz
What’s updog?
I literally watched it and still didn’t remember it until you said that name. Still couldn’t tell you a damn thing about it.
Of course you can, it’s about superheroes, you can see it in the costumes.
Nothing besides that though. I also watched it and am drawing a blank. I think there was a scene with a boat for some reason?
So yeah, canceling it made perfect sense.
All I remember is thinking how horrible the fake beard looked and now I’m wondering how much of the 200 million was spent on it.
All of the costumes and hair were terrible. I don’t know how they managed to blow that much money on something so terrible.

No thanks, they ruined the witcher and they’re dead to me.

Netflix didn’t kill cable’s income, cable did that all on its own.
Netflix has had some successes with their own shows, however their approach has always been “throw all the shit against the wall and see what sticks”.
And it actually REALLY had serious potential that gets to drown like most Netflix shows.
Idk how the person never has never heard of it before. It’s not like Netflix are subtle about promoting their original series.
I’ve never heard of it either so seems plausible to me

It wasn’t amazing, but I thought it was pretty decent. Still prefer The Boys though. More exploding dicks in that show.
Never heard of it and I’m chronically online.
I have never heard of it, and didn’t know where this picture was from.
I’ve also never heard of or seen this show
It looks like power ranges meet marvel.
It’s more like Boardwalk Empire meets Invincible.
But don’t expect the same level of quality.

Never heard of it. Netflix also likes to put you in little niche bubbles as soon as you show interest in one genre.

I saw promos for this show for weeks after it had been cancelled and I’d watched the whole thing.
