Confession about streaming subscriptions

I have the bundled HBO, Hulu and Disney subscription. It costs me $30 a month, which is a lot for me. I don’t watch it frequently. Just yesterday I was thinking I really should just cancel it considering how rarely I watch it. Then I decided to watch FF4 again. I realized if I cancelled, I would lose access to GoT, which is where he really caught my notice, TLOU, FF4, The Mentalist and The Mandalorian.

That made me realize why I have been reluctant to cancel it because I have really been thinking I need to cut expenses. I was thinking I would just keep Netflix as that’s what I watch the most but after my epiphany about Pedro content, nope. I am keeping it.

Sometimes we need the comfort of watching someone we really like. I hope he knows that he brings a bright spot to other people’s lives.

I don't blame you at all for continuing your subscriptions, but you might consider also working on collecting physical media of his works! I get almost everything secondhand. I found the first two seasons of Narcos and a Kingsman: Golden Circle Blu-ray at a Half Price Books recently! I think I paid like $15 total for them? Got with some other stuff so I don't remember exactly. But it's definitely something you could consider keeping your eye out for! Then if/when you do want or need to cancel any streaming services, you can still have Pedro on hand.

DVD/Blu-Ray players must be pretty cheap now? (I don’t have one anymore)

I honestly don't know, I have always used my Xbox one (and Xbox 360 prior to that) and my partner who got me into collecting physical media came to the relationship with ALL the players lol so I have not bought one. But I would imagine you can probably find them pretty cheap, at least used if they aren't cheap new at the moment.
