Welp, Paramount Plus has the Super Bowl and then Halo S2, which looks like it might be worth watching. After that it goes on the canceled pile with Netflix and "Max."

I only have Hulu and Disney Plus at this point because they're bundled with my phone plan, and Prime because of Amazon. I have Apple TV+ during MLS season.

But otherwise I'll just stick to my Blu-ray collection and sign up for Netflix ad-free or whatever for two months every two years and binge everything worth watching. My backlog is long enough to last me years at this point.
