Sometimes you want to watch something that just isn’t available. Plus, we live in a golden age of TV where our cup runneth over with all that’s available on streaming services like Disney+, Hulu, and Netflix.īut as much as these services offer, it’s not everything. In fact, just yesterday Universal announced that it would start letting customers watch its new movies at home via VOD (though for a rather steep $20 per rental) because people aren’t supposed to go to theaters. Luckily, in the internet age we have nearly unfettered access to as much information and entertainment as we could want. But for many this is a new and isolating experience, and it would be good to have something to take your mind off the chaos and ineptitude that surrounds us. For writers and editors sitting alone at home, tapping away at a computer as our spines slowly deform, these are just regular days for us.
