Yeah, we watched the first episode in season 3 last night.
I have read that the reason for the thumbs up/down is due to Amy Schumer complaining that her programme had poor ratings, blaming 'trolls'. Not sure how true this is, though.
And nothing to do with her stealing material from everyone and being generally rubbish I have read that the reason for the thumbs up/down is due to Amy Schumer complaining that her programme had poor ratings, blaming 'trolls'. Not sure how true this is, though.
There does often seem to be a discrepancy between Netflix ratings and IMDB / Rotten Tomatoes etc but generally you knew where you were with 1 star and 5 star stuff, 3 was always a grey area but I never saw Jason Statham complaining.
I guess I'll get used to it.

Brilliant brutal Korean thriller/drama, fans of Oldboy will like this
Had a Leon feel to the start of it...then went in a more traditional revenge style... enjoyed it a lot. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1527788/?ref_=nv_sr_4

If I remember correctly, the Netflix star rating you see is nothing to do with reviews and 'how good' something is deemed to be, its based on some sort of comparison with your watched programmes and the categories they fall into. The star rating I see for a programme could be different to what you see. Or something. Possibly. Bit vague really.I guess I'll get used to it.
Algorithms.

About to be scrapped for a 'thumbs up, thumbs down' idiot-friendly interface as I understand it.
Inside No. 9

League of Gentlemen meets Black Mirror. Very good, very dark!

Just about to watch Part 2 of The Get Down which went live today - been looking forward to this, the first 'part' was excellent - a fictional story set in the Bronx in the late 70s around the birth of hip hop, but interspersed with real events, people and footage - very well done and a cracking soundtrack
The Get Down added to the list after watching Hip Hop Evolution, a must for hip hop fans
