How are there more TV shows than ever… yet nothing to watch? In this video, Sabrina explores how streaming giants like Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, and Amazon Prime Video changed how we watch shows and, also, what shows get made. But this isn't a story about how streaming is terrible and we should all hit up the seven seas. It's a love letter to all the TV shows Sabrina has loved before. Damn, should've made that joke in the video but I only thought of it now.

1. in last aftershow you said that in ue airlaines go under more often and you said that on your part of the world they get bailed out when that happens but what happens in ue? and if they are not then why? also another question: I bought the Albert Camus book about Sisyphus to read it and say my opinion on Sisyphus but reading it is to much for me so I watched Unsolicited advice video about it (I recomend it) It left me with questions to Sebrina: 2. why must you imagine Sisyphus happy? are you finding life miningles? My opinion about Sisyphus is that he isn't happy he is being miserable and I know that this is a metaphor but objectively he isn't happy

OMG shout out for The Mindy Project :)

What percent of your viewers are YouTube Premium members? Do they contribute a non-trivial amount towards AIP’s monetization?

How many subscription services do you guys have that aren't for movies ? Such as Spotify, Uber eats etc...?

Johanan Daniel

In my opinion what’s missing is a service for discovering media across any platform that is relevant for someone and a focus on renting/owning over streaming. Individual streaming services provide suggestions but are confined to their offerings and are incentivized to maximize watch time/time on the platform. A service that suggested media based off what you like but then let you go and decide where to watch would be great. Streaming’s best strength is its flexibility; you can subscribe to a single service if watching a show or rent/buy a movie. I feel like for a lot of people, renting is cheaper than paying for multiple services

What are the streaming services you have? Like a complete list? And if you could only pick 1 to keep which would it be? For me - Dropout.tv

Taha took the few seconds he had to make the most amount of damage possible and I love that. Great vid as always. Question: what do you think the community aspect of this situation is? As in, before you would watch shows with friends or family but now it feels like such a lonely experience

as someone who’s been watching since the quirkyandnerdy days, this was such a fun video to watch :-) i am also very tv pilled and a lot of my early interests were tv!! sabrina talked a bit about her favorite tv shows when she was younger, but taha and melissa what were some of your favorite tv shows when you were younger?

Cat

No questions, just love that I learned about the "my steak too juicy, my lobster too buttery" meme through this video and now I want to use it in every interaction I can lol. ALSO I just noticed Sabrina wore a Hostinger sweatshirt for the ad read and that's why her arm was in that position - hilarious and so good

clearlypronerd

something very satisfying abt sabrina embracing the ol' fangirl roots. the green screen bits with sabrina acting as little characters to illustrate examples in the narration are always entertaining to me. could you share anything about the process of coming up with these visual gags or point out some that you particularly like from this video? (the alignment chart in the hostinger ad was one of my favs)
