Stranger Things
Binge watched the whole series yesterday. Great stuff, though not as good (imo) as S1. Love all the 80s references. And Paul Reiser. And Sean Astin.
Netflix + Hughesnet -- fantastic. No problems with the VDS speed -- Stranger Things looked great on a large TV. Netflix always delivers good quality images, even with VDS turned on.
NBC streaming app + Hughesnet -- forking bad. Watching The Good Place is very frustrating because, I suppose, NBC doesn't like latency. I've tried casting from their website as opposed to the app, but there's no difference. I have tried disabling VDS and it's the same story, so I'm blaming NBC. Boo on you, NBC.
I think I will stick to the new StarTrek Discovery and Orville >.>

There's something about paying for CBS that rubs me the wrong way. Kinda like the way NBCSN decided to get people to pay for 3 games a week when they provided Extra Time for the past coupla three years.
That said, Ep. 1 of Discovery almost did it's job to hook me in.

Yea, especially when I get a good CBS signal OTA. Even the broadcast stations are jumping on the pay as you go bandwagon. What they do still broadcast will probably suffer more and more as time goes by and they shift the better content to paid.
