What’s that? Are those sea shanties I hear being sung over the horizon?

This is not shrinkflation. This is fleecing.

Shrinkflation is a scheme that takes subtlety to pull off. There’s some level of artistry involved in increasing prices in a way that is unnoticed by the customer.

This is so unsubtle it doesn’t even deserve to be called shrinkflation.

When they dumped all of that discovery network garbage on there I knew my days with the service were numbered. When they canceled winning time (the one show they had left worth watching imo) and ended it with the Lakers losing, I knew it was time to leave.

Ever consider not dropping a spoiler for a show you particularly like in a random comment like this? I haven’t been able to finish the season yet.

A spoiler? Dude, it’s covering things that actually happened.

They just stopped making it abruptly because HBO are assholes and I wouldn’t recommend wasting the rest of your time unless you like watching unfinished stories that are concluded by blocks of text like a fucking Wikipedia article.

The plot follows actual events very closely.

I suspect if they had known they were getting the axe they wouldn’t have spent nearly the whole season detailing the year they did.
