Netflix Gets Booed for Announcing Addition of a Winning Jason Sudeikis Comedy

Coming off of his big win with Ted Lasso, Jason Sudeikis is enjoying the spotlight as his name’s being thrown all around the internet. Netflix thought they would capitalize on it by bringing back a fan-favorite movie he stars in but that’s backfiring as customers are letting the streaming platform know that its peace offering is doing nothing to repair the latest betrayal it has served to its subscribers.
When Ted Lasso came to an end with no promise of a future or a spinoff in sight, fans were lost because it was a show that pulled viewers in from different angles and kept them interested from one episode to the next. With that hole to fill, Netflix thought it might cash in all the lingering love for the star of the show by adding the 2013 comedy hit We’re the Millers, starring Jennifer Anison, Emma Roberts, and Will Poulter as well as Sudeikis, to its lineup once again
Unfortunately, viewers are still fuming over the streamer’s new password policy that keeps people from sharing their Netflix accounts outside of their households. Netflix accounts can no longer be shared by separate households unless the subscriber is willing to pay for another membership on top of their own. The streaming platform can only be used in one location, meaning separate rooms of the same home are okay but the same won’t extend to the neighbor down the street or a family member in another state.
So, amid this very palpable turmoil, when Netflix tried to be cheeky with its announcement of adding We’re the Millers to its library, it was swiftly made aware that it should have “ragrets.”
i’m so goddamn sick of y’all with this password sharing shit as if anybody fucking uses netflix anymore ur movies suck ur show options suck the only good thing on there is the walking dead and now i cant even fucking watch it bc u decided it would be a good idea to PREVENT PEOPLE

While Netflix is yet to reveal how many subscribers it has lost as a result of its password crackdown, the sentiment to ditch the streamer is already very visible.
No Ragrets canceling my subscription

Some couldn’t help but taunt Netflix for going back on its own words.
Love is sharing a password.

Statista reports that the streaming platform boasts 74.4 million subscribers, which is 200,000 less than the number it had last year. If this reaction to the password policy does end up causing a mass exodus, the company might want to rethink its policy.

Getting negative feedback for its decisions is nothing new for Netflix as the streamer has been crowned the place where shows go to “die” in light of its ongoing streak of canceling beloved shows. But as it continues losing subscribers amid the chaos it riles up in the first place, it would do Netflix good to indulge in some silent introspection for once.
