I wish they'd let us hide shows like you can hide channels on YouTube

Should be renamed things you may absolutely hate

Would prefer to never have to see his eminently punchable face again, but truth's a good start I guess 🤷

[–] MDCCCLV@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 minutes ago

Hulu instead shows you the latest episode of a serial show, hopefully there isn't massive spoilers

It's recommending Bill Maher because they watched Last Week Tonight.

Bill Maher sucks. Last Week Tonight fucks.

Most people watching Last Week Tonight are not going to also be Bill Maher fans.

[–] Hegar@fedia.io 44 points 7 hours ago (3 children)

I saw a clip of this moron for the first time a week or two ago.

The entire segment was him saying that genocide against native peoples was justified because they too had violence present in their societies. Of course, the overwhelming majority of complex life on earth include violence in their behavior repetoire.

So per this dipshit, you're morally justified in wiping out complex life.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 8 points 2 hours ago

Bill Maher is the smug "liberal" elite that I think conservatives think all educated democrats are. He thinks he's the smartest person in the room, has consistently bad takes and just generally sucks. He is all but the definition of smug. He thinks he's George Carlin but is not

[–] Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 24 points 6 hours ago

This dude is the textbook definition of a reactionary centrist: so comfortable with his entrenched wealth that he'll gladly sell out anyone who is getting stomped by the system that he benefits from.

[–] tomi000@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Americans have guns so Im allowed to shoot them all, right?

[–] SirSamuel@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Yes.

Me first, please

Reminds me of how when my kids finish watching a decent-quality kids show on Prime or YouTube, the algorithm will try to autoplay absolute pablum like Baby Shark, Cocomelon, or some other trash. It's like it deliberately chooses the most basic mind-numbing schlock available.

[–] kandoh@reddthat.com 8 points 3 hours ago

The algorithms prioritize things that other users spend a lot of time watching, not relevant or healthy content. Just addictive slop. It's such a major failing of our institutions that this practice hasn't been regulated away.

[–] Lojcs@lemm.ee 11 points 6 hours ago

Reminds me of the time I finished watching a stick figure fight video as a kid, went to take a shower without realizing autoplay was a thing and came back to snow white hentai

[–] dontpanic@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 7 hours ago

pablum

schlock

Hey thanks, I learned 2 new words today :)

[–] MissJinx@lemmy.world 5 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

dude baby shark is a time.machine. With baby shark playing 1 year feels like 10. I have PTSD from it. Not even over reacting, If I hear baby shark I start screaning "turn it off!!! turn it off!!"

[–] DontMakeMoreBabies@lemm.ee 1 points 1 hour ago

Baby Shark Do Do Do Doo Do Do Doo Doooo....

You may also like Bill Maher?

What a slap in the face. Maher and MAX can eat shit.

[–] Vespair@lemm.ee 13 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

It's another HBO-sponsored newstainment show focusing on politics. Don't get me wrong, fuck Bill Maher, I understand why you're bothered, but from a programming standpoint it absolutely makes sense that this would be the next aligned recommendation.

[–] Fenrir@lemmings.world 1 points 18 minutes ago

Nice try, Bill Maher

[–] cubism_pitta@lemmy.world 32 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

They rely on people getting up to take a shit after Last Week Tonight to juice those Bill Maher numbers

On cable as long as you had a DVR you could skip every commercial. With streaming, ads are baked into the experience and commercials can be made unskippable. It sucks.

Aint it great when paying gets you a worse experience.

Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem.

You can see it here live. OP's problem is not the price but that the service is shit, and the only solution you can see in this thread is piracy.

[–] Bonus@lemm.ee 12 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Legacy format. You should be able to fully block suggestions you're not only not interested in but that make your stomach turn. We obviously have the tech to have more sophisticated suggestions now.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

You should be able to fully block suggestions you're not only not interested in but that make your stomach turn.

EXACTLY! It's like they WANT me to associate one of if not THE best show on the platform with nausea and seething resentment!

[–] Bonus@lemm.ee 5 points 5 hours ago

If you love Gandhi, you're gonna looove Hitler!!!

[–] fitgse@sh.itjust.works 7 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Turns on VPN for Brazil. yt-dlp the weekly episode. Place on Jellyfin media server. Rejoice.

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Where is yt-dlp finding full episodes?

[–] fitgse@sh.itjust.works 1 points 30 minutes ago* (last edited 30 minutes ago)

They post them to you tube after they air but they are region locked. Just find a vpn in South America and you can watch it (or download it)

[–] z3rOR0ne@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 hours ago (2 children)
[–] IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 8 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I'm confused. Is it Bill Maher or just the concept of "You may also like" in general that you take exception to?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

It's Bill Maher and them continuing to try to push his stupid show after hundreds of failed attempts.

I don't really have anything against a "you may like" function that DOESN'T insist on the same bullshit recommendation for over a decade of me rejecting it..

[–] griff@lemmings.world 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

don’t tell me what I might like, don’t tell me what kinda day to have!!!

[–] IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 8 points 8 hours ago (9 children)

I wouldn't even credit them with that much thought. It's far more likely that it's simply "you watched late-night political comedy talk show, so here's another late night political "comedy" talk show."
