This is the end...

It's that time of the year again...season finale time. And, this concept is the one thing that regular television viewing has as a benefit over streaming an entire season of a show on Netflix or Hulu Plus. The reason: Emotion. When burning through an entire season (or multiple seasons) of a show on-line, you don't have that same emotional connection to the characters as you do when tuning into these characters lives on a weekly basis year after year.

Resurrecting Another Fanboy's Dream

Earlier in the year, I mentioned how my family has cut the cord on our television viewing...meaning that we no longer have cable or DVR and chose to stream our entertainment on-line through services like Hulu and Netflix.  So far, I've been fairly happy with the results (except for not being able to watch March Madness). We've even gone so far to cancel our discs from our Netflix account because we end up streaming so many television shows that we don't have time to watch movies on DVD that we honestly didn't want to see. If I want to see a movie, I go to it in the theater, and if I miss it there, Redbox is available and Amazon has digital rentals. So that's a quick update on the first few months on life without cable...but this entry is about how my love affair with Netflix has been heating up.
