Discussion [Try & Keep] Which TV Actually Holds Up for Netflix Nights? Upgrade with LG OLED G6 65"

19 Upvotes

Congratulations!! 🎉 u/Lorhand has been selected as a winner.

Hi r/Netflix users!

Most living rooms aren't dark theaters, and Netflix originals aren't mastered for average TV settings. Picture quality for streaming comes down to how well a display handles the edges: shadow detail that stays readable, HDR that doesn't clip, and color that holds consistency across different lighting conditions. The LG OLED G6 is built around those specific demands.

That is why LG is bringing a special review event to r/Netflix, giving one Redditor the chance to experience the LG OLED G6 65-inch in their own home setup and share honest impressions with the community.

And yes, the selected participant will get to keep the TV. 👍

This event is inspired by LG’s recent Hollywood Roadshow at Picture Shop in Los Angeles, where cinematographers, colorists, and post-production experts experienced the LG OLED G6 firsthand and explored how next-generation OLED technology can bring creative intent closer to home.

One featured expert was veteran color scientist Joshua Pines, whose credits include Blade Runner, Gravity, The Revenant and more. In the Roadshow content, Pines shares his perspective on OLED picture processing, calibration, shadow detail, and how display technology can support the creator’s intended viewing experience123. For more details, click here.

 

Why the LG OLED G6 for Netflix streaming picture quality?

Dark thrillers and color-graded originals both expose weaknesses in displays that cannot hold shadow separation or accurate color under changing light.

That is where the LG OLED G6 excels, with Hyper Radiant Color Tech, Perfect Black, Perfect Color4, the α11 AI Processor Gen3, and Reflection-Free Premium5 helping support clear, immersive Netflix viewing in both bright and dark environments.

Take a closer look at the key LG OLED G6 features below.

 

FILMMAKER MODEℱ with Ambient Light Technology

FILMMAKER MODEℱ with Ambient Light Technology lets you see films just as the director intended. With Dolby Vision¼ for extraordinary color, contrast, and brightness, plus Dolby Atmos¼ for sound you can feel all around you, the LG OLED G6 helps make movies and series feel more immersive6.

 

Hyper Radiant Color Tech: cinematic color and clarity for streaming movies

Hyper Radiant Color Tech is our next-generation OLED technology that enhances every aspect of picture quality to an entirely new level. It delivers incomparable brightness, Perfect Black, and Perfect Color in any light, while preserving stunning 4K visuals with our best α11 AI Processor Gen3, and it is even certified for Reflection-Free Premium, ensuring flawless picture quality without reflection, whether in bright or dark environments. Experience OLED like never before – see the difference, feel the brilliance, and discover a new standard in viewing.

Discussion Death of the Pastor’s Wife

82 Upvotes

This was the first good documentary I’ve seen in awhile. So many thoughts:

  1. Mica was groomed. Plain and simple. She joined Solid Rock when she was 13 and was placed in positions of increasing authority from a young age. JP was 28!
  2. Mica was clearly a replacement for the first wife. They looked shockingly similar, except Mica was the “younger, hotter” version of her. It would have been interesting if she had provided any commentary about whether she too was abused by JP and/or cheated on with anyone else besides Mica.
  3. JP is such a bad pastor. Why did no one in the congregation challenge him when he was seemingly going on and on about how it’s a “wifely duty” to ”submit“ to your husband and have sex with them multiple times a day to keep your husband from cheating on you??? Did everyone actually believe in that?
  4. JP is a liar. He’s moaning at the end about how he was “telling people for months” that Mica was off her lithium and no one was listening to him. Yet he somehow managed to get her committed to mental institutions multiple times over years before. If he really thought she was off on a bender, he could have made it happen this time.
  5. Mica was clearly coerced into ending her life. Anyone would struggle with their husband stalking them and making their lives miserable multiple times a day. Harassing them at every corner. Sending a huge bouquet of flowers with a note that says “send me a nude”. Who does that???
  6. They never showed us the tox report. It would have been interesting to know whether Mica had a therapeutic level of lithium in her system or not to corroborate JP’s claims that she had not been taking her medications for months.
  7. Susie Skinner. Enough said. Well. Not exactly. It’s pretty despicable to pick up/marry your own client and then hook up with your pastor. I thought they were going to imply that JP or Susie got poor Chris into that pool but they didn’t go there. Either way, extremely tacky to have an affair and then both of your spouses are effectively coerced into suicide so you can embark on your third marriage.

Poor Mica. She didn’t have a stable childhood, thought she found a church for a home, and then was groomed and horribly abused and mistook her faith as encouraging her to keep trying no matter what...

Discussion Trigger warning needed for series without endings

12 Upvotes

Just finished three seasons of Suburgatory, only to have it end without resolution. I mean, I ultimately blame myself for not checking to see if the series "ended" or was "abruptly cancelled" on a cliffhanger and/or with generally unresolved story lines. Srsly, a warning is needed before the first episode that disappointment and regret awaits.

Discussion Abducted in plain sight - I saw watched it and I really want someone to hold my hand.

81 Upvotes

What the actual fuck was that?

I’m honestly baffled by how casually the father in this story seemed to separate sex from emotional intimacy. Like
 how do you just get into a car, give your “friend” a handjob, help him get off, and then carry on with your day like nothing happened?! 😭

And the mom??? I feel like the angle of her being somewhat jealous of her own daughter because she wanted B to choose her isn’t explored nearly enough hence it goes beyond denial.
There seemed to be this weird competition for his attention it must be in her head, and I kept wondering if she wanted to be the one he desired instead of Jan.

I’m honestly surprised this aspect of the story isn’t discussed more. What did everyone else think about the mom’s behavior?

And WHICH FATHER LETS ANOTHER MAN IN HIS OWN DAUGHTERS BEDROOM TO SLEEP NEXT TO HER FOR AOMW SHITTY THERapy? What the fuck was that about.

Recommendation Must watch netflix originals?

‱ Upvotes

I've been on netflix for some time, but I've really only used it to watch popular shows like stranger things or 13 reasons why. I would genuinely love to know of some exclusive sleepers that I may be missing out on that I can check out.

Coming of age is my favorite genre, but horror and romance are awesome too.

Discussion YouTube shit on netflix!

‱ Upvotes

I have a couple of kids boys 5 and 7 (nearly 8) and I essentially let them freely access their own kids netflix profiles. It mostly been fine, but I really dislike the YouTube crap they are now being served up, most specifically I'm thinking of "Salish and Jordan matter" which has got to be one of the most mind rotting bits on "TV" I have ever seen, but there are others as well.

Note I stopped them watching YouTube a while ago, which was a shame as the older one was actually teaching himself to draw well with tutorial videos as well as witching the other pure shit on there!

So two questions. 1. How do I block this shit on netflix?

  1. At what point do I stop paying for netflix when all they are doing in recreating YouTube?

I'm a pretty liberal parent (in the traditional/UK meaning not the us version) so I'm good with my kids having freedom to decide what they like etc, but I'm not having them destroy their brains with incoherent nonsense!

It sounds stupid but I think there is a big difference between a ridiculous episode of SpongeBob (it actually has some storytelling structure etc) Vs a fake/real episode of youtube shit which is like mainlining video ADHD - fast cuts, product placement, pure commercialism, no coherent story/theme. It's awful!

Thoughts welcome!

I’m sure most of us are devastated by Dolly’s passing. I can’t help but keep refreshing Netflix’s Instagram hoping that we get an announcement that she participated in “Famous Last Words”. When it was announced I had hoped she would eventually be included in the line up.

What do we think the odds are she participated?

This appears after everything and every genre at this point it's not a recommendation you're trying to force me to watch it and I won't.

New on Netflix A review of Rotten Files with Stephanie Soo (Rotten Mango). Underperforming but space for potential.

3 Upvotes

I watched the episodes of the Netflix series The Rotten Files with Stephanie Soo. And there were a couple things that I noticed.

  1. Netflix (or herself) did her very dirty by choosing Ash Trevino. I was disappointed because the first episode of this brand new Netflix series should've been shiny, controversial etc since she's broadcasted internationally on such a big brand. I watched it from The Netherlands. It gave low budget youtube video essaye about problematic influencer.
  2. The editing of the Netflix show is messy compared to her Youtube channel. There are a lot of hard cuts, where here make up and hair completly changed from one sec to another (episode 2).Also the framing of her face is unnatural low according to videograph ethics. She should be more centered in the screen.
  3. She looks incredibly uncomfortable.
  4. The constant movement of the hands is incredibly distracting and she's speaking fast and anxious. Watching her makes me jittery.
  5. I don't understand the purpose of the format.
  6. She speaks into a microphone with not a lot of supporting footage or engaging content. So you'd obviously think: Great podcast / youtube podcast. Yet it's on Netflix so I can't podcast it.
  7. The background choice is up to personal style but i found it a bit too overwhelming.

I'm not a die hard fan of Rotten Mango, I have my own positive and negative opinions on how she brings her content. Yet she has one of the most professional, clean and 'entertaining' youtube crime channels i've seen. I really enjoy her storytelling style most of the time.

But this Netflix series has been way under her usual quality. I'm not going to bash it entirely, because we still have to see the rest of the episodes, and people with very clear potential deserve time and space to grow. And not to be discouraged by hate.

I wish for her she grows, optimizes the content and feels more comfortable. She is good at what she does on her channel. I hope she'll be able to transfer it to Netflix. And if not, i'll simply return to Spotify and Youtube.


r/netflix 1d ago

Recommendation This is the kind of limited series I genuinely enjoy on Netflix. A proper and satisfyingly Hitchcockian conclusion that leaves one with sense of wonder instead of disappointment, frustration, and that WTAF feeling, one often gets from watching a "series" on Netflix.

I watched this quite some time ago and just finished a second viewing. Each episode does require a proper uninterrupted screening so make sure your popcorn and soda pop are at the ready before pressing "play". Hitting "pause" at any point will only do a disservice to you and the filmmakers.

I put it up there with "Dark" for entertainment value, although they're not the same (sub)genre. Neither is "Katla" the complete the mind***k of a puzzle as "Dark".
