Have you not seen the feedback on Season 8? GOT fans hate D&D.
It isn't rocket science. Any talent has seen AT&T's writing on the wall and are leaving in droves. When innovation & creativity is stiffled under a company that is a control freak, the ideas go elsewhere. Netflix is so big because they embrace and respect these ideas. Granted, some of the Netflix content is subpar compared to Hollywood big budget flicks, but then again, all Hollywood can seem to come up with anymore is remakes. At least Netfilx is original, not to mention they're technical issues are slim, which is more than I can say for ANY AT&T product.
Good riddance. They can go screw up at Netflix.
It'd have been worse it T shelled out tons of money to keep them. They did a fine job with GoT when they had the books to work off of , once they didn't, they had no idea what to do with the characters or story.
Everything SBC buys goes to sh–. Bellsouth was arguably the best run rboc and most profitable. All while keeping employees happy. Now it’s utterly destroyed. Building after building I go to in the southeast and inspect , are in various stages of neglect and disrepair. Same goes for equipment. Either the buildings are ghost towns or they’re packed full of employees like sardines who have been forced to condense because of other buildings being closed. It’s ugly.
“Industry leading cost structure”
Att is doing what it did to U-verse and dtv and applying it to time warner.
Lol don’t watch it and don’t care but just another sign of what att is doing to time warner lol.
fine with me..if their shows continue the way they handled season 8, it's good reddens
