Don't worry, once net neutrality is eliminated, Netflix will have no choice but to amp down the self-produced content, which is watered down enough as it is.

My girlfriend had The Great British Baking Show on Netflix in the background and while I was napping on the couch and a day later I've watched 13 episodes in a row. I can't take my eyes off it. I'm obsessed with it and I know nothing at all about baking nor have I had any interest in it whatsoever until now.

Holy shit, I can't stop watching this show.

My Argie ex almost got me hooked to to MasterChef. We would sit on the couch and watch like 2-3 eps in a row. Those cooking shows are weirdly mesmerizing.

Not the same thing, but a friend of a friend competed in Forged in Fire, and I had a similar experience.

For those uninitiated, it involves amateur and professional smiths forging various blades on the spot using materials provided.  The two finalists are then given the project of creating an exotic historical sword (e.g. a kris or claymore), the winner is picked after conducting various tests like slicing through gelatinous dummies, cutting carcasses, and shooting bullets at the blade.
The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists.
