Things that shouldn’t cost this much
[ad_1] For when you need to justify spending $6,000 on an Apple Pro Display XDR and its stand. That’s a lot of money for Netflix to spend and a significant talent loss for HBO. But on the bright side, this deal does mean that Confederate is officially cancelled. But what if, and hear me out, […]

[ad_1] The move isn’t completely shocking. The Mandalorian is a tentpole show for Disney+, and may have to carry the streaming service until Disney fleshes out its catalog of originals — so long as the first season held promise, a second was a reasonably safe bet. Nonetheless, it’s a good sign for anyone worried that […]
