This is only based on local averages — there could be more risk of individual games being really cold — but in general the sort of fall-to-spring-ish schedule looks like a good deal

Pretty cool that 12.99 will now get you access to a mind bending drama based on highly structured and inscrutable rules with themes of identity and free will set to a backdrop of corporate desperation and overreach and also severance is on there I guess

The Premier League is now 5 seconds of open play then 30 seconds of prepping for a set piece.
