I find it very stressful when watching Netflix because I don't know what is going to happen. Maybe they could include the full story line at the start of the series, so I can read it ahead of time and remove all suspense and surprise.

True, but plots are only half the story. I'd be very grateful if they could give me some sample scenes (ideally automatically, so I don't have to go through the trouble of starting them every single time). I mean, how do people even decide whether a movie might be for them without having first inspected a good portion of it?

It's weird to me how the first two replies to this comment completely missed the sarcasm.

Do we need to start using the "/s" tag here like became necessary on reddit? I don't like the thought, but maybe it's a different issue in this case-- more of a non-native-English or on-the-spectrum thing than an inexperienced teenager thing? I hope so.

Being English-as-in-UK I often run into situations where my dry/sarcastic humour completely fails to be clear to USians.

Then again from the UK POV the leftpondians barely count as native English speakers anyway ;)

Yet you'll find sources that claim spoken American English is closer to historical British English, because of some aspects like rhoticity. [1]
