Does it hurt your feelings when Netflix pauses and asks you ‘ if you’re still watching’? I don’t like it. Netflix is calling me lazy.

    Yes, just like when my TV tells me that is will turn off in so many seconds if I don't press some random button.

    Same here. My dad and I had the same conversation tonight. He just sits there and watches TV (for hours) and it decides no one is paying attention to it because the channel is never changed. So, it's going to sleep.

    He said we can't call it an Idiot box anymore. Scary, but true.

  • Thé TV turn off usually happens To me when I’m not watching, and just have it on as background noise. I am binge watching a show in Netflix tonight though and I got that are you still watching message. It pissed me off lol.

    One option is to not let it bother you and another is to quit watching Netflix. You have actual, you know, power here.

  • Well I can’t stop watching Netflix cos I’m in an imaginary relationship with Don Draper.  I’m not ready to break up with him yet and come back to 2019.

  • Lol true :) he’s such an ass. I have no idea why I love him so much. Funny thing, John Hamm as himself does nothing for me. I must have issues :)

      For my part, I'm just trying to figure out why both of my women are crushing on this dude. Hey wait a second, did each of you know that I've been seeing the other behind your back?
