First they gripe when there's no original programming other than Star Trek, then they gripe when new original programming announced.

Can't win with some people

It would be nice if this CBSN they're talking about patterns itself after prestigious international outlets such as BBC News, France24, and the like, rather than the American biased BS "infotainment" channels. I enjoy France24 in the mornings, but it would be nice to have another alternative for the evening.

A new original rehash of the Twilight Zone.

To be fair...twilight zone is a reboot basically every episode, and it’s hardly the first time.
Outer Limits had its various incarnations too.

How do you reboot an anthology show?

 

[JirinPanthosa]

Yeah, it's hard to call TZ a reboot. It's more shorthand for 'Let's tell one off sci-fi stories and use he name Twilight Zone for free ratings'.

I will give it a watch, but it also has only one episode to prove to me the writing is good.

I see they are trying to rebrand themselves as a sci-fi friendly place which is nice but they got to start churning out even more stuff. Netflix seems to have a almost constant stream of new shows coming out or new seasons of older shows all the time. I wonder what else they are working on and still I am not sure if it will be enough. I mean people can only afford so many sites and i'm not sure if they can still compete in the long-term with everything out there, not to mention Disney when it gets it's thing going or any of the other networks that also want to do the same. People only have so much money to spread around.

Also if they really want sustainability they need some shows that people are watching because of their quality and not because of their name.

Dam right, and damn straight.

Nobody said that you have to see them; also, there are new original shows, as mentioned before in a previous thread.

They need to stick MASH on the platform, that would make me so happy.
