Has anyone else seen Hulu's new interface for Fire TVs? It is THE WORST. Did you ever think to yourself "I just want to look at one thing at a time!" It feels like it is designed for SD TVs with how little information they put on the screen at one time.

I hate Hulu's interface more every time it changes. Its weird because obviously whoever they're designing it for is the exact opposite as me.

Hulu's interface has been terrible since the platform debuted.

But as far as licensed content they are beating the pants off of Netflix so I will suffer through it.

I was a hulu early adopter, and its interface has gotten progressively worse forever. Also it no longer remebers where Ik at in something if I want to resume it later. It says "resume" and shows a partial progress bar, bit when I hit it, it plays from the beginning.

This feature worked properly until about a month ago.

Three episodes in to Ozarks. It is a seriously solid show if you're looking for something to watch.

I like Hulu's interface just fine, it's the new Netflix page that slows Firefox to a goddamn crawl that annoys me. I always end up going "fine I'll just use the PS4 then assholes"

I just Chromecast everything from my phone. Except Max Go because for some reason that's the only one that still doesn't seem to have that feature. Like I can finally cast SyFy, CW, AMC, A&E, PBS, and every other channel I look for but for some reason Cinemax still lags behind.

I'm not sure how they manage to make every season seem like such an exponential jump in scale over the previous one. I'd thought the Paris stuff was about as big as this show could go but there's stuff in this trailer that seems to dwarf that.

Psyched about that Psych movie, even though I never did see the last season of the show. I think I might be ready for more Burn Notice too at this point.

I can't remember much about the last season of Psych, other than I don't really want to watch that season again. It was a pretty good ending though.
Burn Notice I have yet to go back and watch the end of, myself. That last season was just so bad that I didn't even care how it ended.

Timby posted:

I'm curious to see how they worked Lassie in, because last I heard Omundson is still in really rough shape.

Wait, what happened to him? I don't think I've seen him in anything since Supernatural a couple of seasons ago.

Psych would be better if it was Limitless.

Aw, now I'm sad because I remembered Limitless which made me remember that there will never be more Limitless.

He had a stroke like a couple weeks before they started shooting the movie. They’re going to film one scene with sometime in the future to explain why he’s not in the film more. They’re giving him some more time to recover.

Yeah, my PS4 is almost always on and even when PSN blesses me with normal DL speeds, it has never made my network sluggish.

I have crazy fast internet, sure, but my roommate and I are constantly dling and streaming poo poo and a console has never effected that.

Are you using wifi? Maybe your wifi sucks. Or you just have slow net idk.

We have a mid-tier internet plan, and use wifi for both the PS4 and our laptop, and if I'm playing Rocket League and my wife is watching a movie on the laptop, neither of us experiences slowdown (hell I often have the best ping in most multiplayer lobbies which makes me wonder what the poo poo other people are doing, besides the obvious "living in Australia/Russia" ones)

Tell that to my Sony Bandwidth Blackhole.

We can stream 3 pcs with netflix no issues, but if the PS4 takes over netflix in the lounge, everything goes to poo poo.

When you guys have Australian ADSL, maybe you can do a compare test.

Ozarks is pretty good, hard to not see it as "Michael finally gets control of the family business".

The initial premise though is kinda flimsy, dude cashes out the business right when his partner disappears, gets the last known phone call from him, buys a house in the Ozarks, and it takes the FBI a week to ask him a question?. FBI is sloooow in this universe.

Really enjoying Ozarks so far. The same things that make Jason Bateman such a good comedic actor can make him a loving rear end in a top hat dramatic actor.
