living in the states made me realize how much we miss out on when news feels like a circus
its the only channel not owned by billionaires so keep it, just fix the pay and culture
Honestly, the amount of quality content you get for that price is wild. It's basically free TV if you think about it.
people who hate public broadcasting are just working for the billionaires who want to buy the news.
try tuning into any other nation's public channel to see the real difference
Would totally subscribe just to access those shows since our local stuff is trash
coercion is a terrible way to build loyalty
Without the BBC, the whole industry collapses into American copycats and no one cares about local stories anymore. It's the only thing keeping British creativity alive.
That 80s version with John Cleese is pure gold, you really should check it out!
the 80s version is in a league of its own
CBeebies literally saved my sanity during lockdown with shows that actually teach without being boring. My toddler is obsessed with inclusive stories like Maddie and Triggs too,worth every penny of the license just for that.
the content is solid but the whole billing setup feels like they're treating you like a suspect from day one
exactly, letting private corps run the airwaves would just turn everything into a paywall
honestly same, the fee is annoying but losing that public service would be way worse
exactly, handing it over to Disney or Amazon means everything becomes subscription-only. the license fee keeps a slice of media public and actually accessible.
