Just like Netflix.
Netflix was the king of over doing it on just about all fronts. For a while, they went absolutely crazy with the non-english subs. No, my account wasn't leaked or anything but I do think Netflix really wanted me to learn several other languages.
Currently, "my recommendations" are the complete opposite of the kind of shows I watch and just about every movie is #1 in the US if you look at enough Netflix accounts.
(The king of shit recommendations is YouTube. Did you have to make it through an intro to find out that it's the wrong subject? Here! Let's completely fill your feed with those kinds of videos now!)
Sir, kindly remember the Wadsworth Constant when browsing YouTube.
Every show on netflix has at least one homosexual couple. It's hilarious once you start pointing it out.
How many of those have heterosexual couples too? If they do, is that hilarious as well?
What about hetero couples in every show everywhere though? Also hilarious?
I do know what you mean. But I'm taking this in another direction to point out that, Christ, a lot of writers seem unable to not make the male and female leads of anything fall in love for no reason. Literally most of the forced romance is hetero romance.
True! Can there be no other kinds of subplots?
