Netflix, the streamer that brought you such woke classics as [insert recent Netflix flop], has finally cucked out of its deal with Warner Bros. Word on the street is that Paramount, owned by the Skydance chads, made an offer so good that Warner Bros. couldn't refuse. And Netflix, bless their hearts, decided that paying an actually realistic price was "no longer financially attractive." Translation: they realized they were about to overpay for a bag of garbage.

Let's be honest, Netflix has been circling the drain for a while now. Between the password sharing crackdown that somehow managed to piss everyone off and the endless stream of virtue-signaling garbage they call “content,” the company has been hemorrhaging subscribers faster than CNN after Trump left office. This whole Warner Bros. deal always smelled like desperation. A Hail Mary to try and stay relevant in a rapidly changing streaming landscape.

Now, Paramount swoops in like a goddamn eagle and snatches Warner Bros. from the jaws of Netflixian irrelevance. Will this actually make Paramount “based”? Probably not. These corporations are all inherently cringe. But hey, at least they're not actively trying to destroy Western civilization with their programming… yet. One can hope.

The real story here is the triumph of market forces. Netflix tried to buy its way to the top, but the market said, "Nah, fam. Your content sucks." And now, they're paying the price. Maybe this will be a wake-up call for Hollywood. Maybe they'll realize that people actually want to be entertained, not lectured.

Of course, this whole thing could still fall apart. There's always the possibility that the woke mob will try to cancel Paramount for not being woke enough. Or that the FTC will try to block the deal because “muh monopoly.” But for now, let's just enjoy the schadenfreude of watching Netflix squirm.

So, what does this mean for the average consumer? Probably not much. You'll still be bombarded with reboots, remakes, and sequels. But maybe, just maybe, there will be a glimmer of hope for some original, non-woke content. A man can dream, can't he?

In the meantime, I'm gonna go rewatch some old movies and laugh at Netflix's misfortune. They brought this on themselves. Get woke, go broke.

And to all the Netflix executives out there: Get rekt.

This is your moment to enjoy this schadenfreude, knowing this event is a shift in the tides of media. Enjoy the momentary reprieve.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some popcorn to make.
