Yeah, case in point my kids: http://www.flickr.com/photos/konstantin/5378716720/
Seriously, if Netflix is not allowing you to veg out enough when
watching TV, then you have something wrong upstairs that probably only
a full frontal lobotomy can solve.

Made so by a constant bombardment of ads. If you happen to block ads
in your browser and cut the cord completely, this becomes a moot
point. I honestly couldn't tell you what is out in theaters at the
moment or what the 'hottest' tv series is. I do however know that when
I turn on Netflix there is so much content available that it in itself
is a sensory overload.
I'm not buying anything in this anti-cord cutting video.
