Don’t get me wrong The Bear is great but it’s so far from comedy it’s not even drama/comedy. I seriously don’t understand how it can be in that category.

Agree with that. That’s my plan as well and I am also expecting them to tie us down for several months at a time in the near future (2024?).

I don’t think it’s free loading. The deal is (was?) per stream. It’s none of their business who is watching and where when they structure the plans like that. I definitely will not ask for permission to watch when traveling. My location is not something they need to be concerned with. Hence I left Netflix. I’ll buy a month in fall to catch up and that’s it.

I am not buying it. I have cancel our subscription and never share my password before. So have many that I know. I haven’t heard from a single person who told me they are a new subscriber because they can’t share password any longer. They just stop watching. However, I hear a lot of people upset about the approach and cancelled where before they just were too lazy to cancel (that includes me).
