God help me, I just signed on to the Disney Plus streaming service so that I can finally binge-watch "The Mandalorian." I think that show is pretty much the only reason that people are signing on to Disney Plus: Star Wars fans are loving the brainchild of Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni, who have both been much more faithful to George Lucas's original vision than that witch-whore Kathleen Kennedy has been. Disney Plus also allows you access to all Marvel-related content, and there's a tie-in with National Geographic and other services, so I might do some exploring. I'll say this: the monthly cost is cheaper than either Netflix or YouTube Premium. (I'm unable to sign on to Netflix, for some reason; the site won't process my credit card. I am, however, a member of YouTube Premium, and have been for a while. YTP costs me $10 a month. Disney is around $6 or $7. Disney's one-year subscription package isn't much cheaper than its monthly package: it's $69 for a year versus around $72 if you go with the monthly rate.)
I swore up and down that I wouldn't allow myself to get nickeled and dimed to death by subscribing to too many streaming-video services. Now, I'm on two. Jesus.
