Netflix is getting boring
I've watched all of the good shows on Netflix - some of them twice. And they aren't adding any new good ones. That's probably because there aren't many new movies coming out in theaters worth watching.

Did you watch the IT Crowd? Pretty funny stuff even if you don't really do computers.

I just purchased the box set of The Pacific. I have the Band of Brothers.
There are a few good shows on Netflix. But I believe I have watched all of them at least once. And I don't care for much on Amazon Prime. I'm going to drop Netflix and try Hulu for a while. |

Sometimes I can get movies on Netflix that I would have to pay for on Prime Time...just have to dial them in...and if it's a flick I really want to enjoy I just buy it...4k is wonderful!
Next TV I get is going to be 4k QLED...and at least 75" screen...the pictures is strikingly awesome in detail and color...don't know about sound...my hearing isn't good enough to care. Big sale at the NEX (That's Navy Exchange Comples for those that don't know) for the holiday and I just may go even though it's a 50 mile drive each way...maybe get a 'GoPro' body camera to wear so I can 'remember' where I've been.

Just checked, NEX has 65" 4k QLED SamSung for $1,200...not bad at all...and in my heart I know they will go down still more. Now, where to put another TV?

I have a 60", wall mounted on a swiveling bracket in my family room. I can move it around so I can watch it from the living room or sitting at my kitchen table. The house has a very open floor plan. I would nearly always prefer to read over watching TV. My GF thinks I am goofy for not mounting it above the fireplace.
Who the hell wants to look up towards the ceiling to watch TV...or mount electronics over a HEAT source. And women wonder why we rule instead of them.

I have a 65" 4k LG TV. I've had it for about 3 years. It is occasionally freezes and I have to turn it off and restart it when I switch between Netflix and TV antenna or between Amazon and TV antenna.
I'll be buying a 75" TV before long. And the model I buy will have to have at least a couple hundred reviews and rated 4.6 stars or better. |

If you can afford it the 82" SamSun in 4k QLED is awesome beyond words and is actually an 8k system...I could go blind watching one...but the big size makes it big priced. |
