Many you know that BeautifulShy is a Nintendo fan, but you may not be aware that she is also a Disney fan. Of course being a Disney fan is one thing, being a Disney collector is another. In the nineties, collecting Disney memorabilia was a significant undertaking but still manageable. Each year there was one or two new movies and associated merchandise to obtain. However once Disney starting acquiring other IP, BeautifulShy was compelled to obtain that merch as well. The acquisition of Star Wars and Marvel studios required significant investments in time and space to collect the extensive back catalog of films, clothing, and toys. But fandom knows no bounds and BShy pushed on getting every piece of swag she could find.
The breaking point seemed to occur with the purchase of 21st Century Fox. Suddenly BShy was buying merch for Alien and The Simpsons, franchises she did not even enjoy. With her bank account depleted and her domicile resembling that of a hoarder, BShy became trapped in the byzantine corridors of stacked figurines and steel books from the multitude of Disney subsidiaries. As a final fleeting call for help she found a way to send an SOS to her NWR forum friends through the Disney+ network, the only channel she would ever watch. One by one each NWR user unknowingly cast her aside in favor of other entertainment options. With nobody there to help she became as neglected as the many Disney Properties that did not fit in with the Disney corporate image. By the time we found her, significant psychic damage had occurred. Our doctors tell me that she currently only speaking using famous lines from Disney characters. As part of her rehabilitation she is being asked to post regularly to the forums in hopes of using Nintendo discussions to break her free of her Disney dependence. Needless to say, BeautifulShy will be unable to continue on with this panel in her current state. With this sad news we complete our third season of the Safe.TV Words+ panel and will be removing Disney+ as a selection in future questions. Season 4 will be coming soon...

Mop it up watches Finch on Apple TV to see how Tom Hanks, a dog, and a robot keep each other safe in a post-apocalyptic world.

As we get near the end of the season, tensions are rising. What streaming service has your favorite movies MASB?

With Best Picture winners like Parasite and Nomadland available to stream, NWR_insanolord is safe from anyone saying there is nothing good to watch on Hulu.

With every other choice in list taken, let's see if Mop it up can mind the gap  ;) as we see what streaming service has your favorite movies?

Since Peacock is owned by NBC Universal, we can watch all those great Minion movies when we visit Khush! Let's just hope he doesn't change his mind on what movie we are watching  >:( because that would not be safe for anyone.

If you liked that last answer, your going to love what NWR_insanolord has to say when we ask "What streaming service has your favorite movies?"

Crunchyroll is best known for anime series, but the streaming service also has plenty of great anime films. Order.RSS is safe streaming Street Fighter 2: The Animated Movie on Crunchyroll.

We all know Khushrenada's love of watching movies so we have to know, what streaming service has your favorite movies Khush?

Who doesn't mind sitting through a few ads to watch free movies? Those are just popcorn breaks after all, since ShyGuy is safe at home watching old Buster Keaton films on YouTube.

Coming up after the break, we will hear from Order.RSS. What streaming service has your favorite movies?

Sometimes it takes a little work to find something good, but nickmitch is always able to find a safe pick for movie night with Amazon Prime Video.

I am afraid we have bad news about another member of the panel. Stratos was testing out a prototype of one of our television enhancement devices. This special cable is similar to a USB cable and except rather than being universal is actually based on hynagogic brainwaves and thus internally referred to as a HSB cable. Due to Stratos' unique home theater setup we needed a y-cable version of this.
So a mere 48 hours ago we lent Stratos this yhSB cable along with explicit instructions to check back in with us. To avoid future incidents we recommend all of you check back here daily. There were some other warnings as well, including one forbidding certain combinations of the main power level and the streaming service used. Unfortunately one of those combinations was watching HBO and setting the power to the Max setting. This had caused some problems with our beta test subjects but nothing prepared us for what we found. Stratos' apparently fell deep into a series of hypnagogic hallucinations after binging Game of Thrones for 48 straight hours. What remains of Stratos is unclear as he is catatonic at the moment.
The good news is that our medical team tells me that with a lot of money and continuous therapy we can have him back to a state of obtundation within a few years. Funnily enough we were able to connect his subconscious to the NWR forums, so you may see posts from his comatose self here and there. Hopefully we can continue without any further unfortunate accidents such as these. We will start the third round of the panel shortly.

Unfortunately, TOPHATANT123's being cancelled prevents him from continuing on in this panel. But there is still plenty of reasons to stay tuned to Safe.TV Words+. As we continue or panel we will now have specific questions that you may want to consider as you select your streaming service. The first question is:
Which streaming service has your favorite TV shows?

"At one point it seemed like all we needed was Netflix" TOPHATANT123 thought. What started as a business that would send DVDs through the postal service created the model for TV streaming and with it took the lion's share of subscribers. Slowly but surely other media giants all began to create their own streaming services and take many of the popular shows with them.

Around that same time, our administration installed a secret agent (code name Order.RSS) within the ranks of Netlfix's leadership team. This individual was only a mission to collect ratings data, but chaos seemed to follow with each decision that was made. First, the agent convinced Netflix to overextend their budget, spending billions on half-baked TV shows for niche audiences and a dozen more Adam Sandler movies.

"That doesn't seem sustainable" TOPHATANT123 thought, but there is "enough stuff to keep me satisfied". Next, staff within the company began to speak out against offensive content and Netflix released a memo that just told them to "Leave".

Unfortunately, TOPHATANT123 had several family members working at Netflix that he now had to support so he shared his streaming service passwords with them until they could get back on their feet. The final blow was our agent's plan to crack down on password sharing.

"They had to make an example out of someone, I guess that was me" TOPHATANT stated in an interview. With the official verdict being a court ordered "cancellation" TOPHATANT123 was officially cut off from all media (strangely enough, posting to the NWR forums was still required as part of community service). Shortly before sentencing, a final public statement was released by TOPHATANT123 and merely stated "Let's get this over with".

As interest in Anime and Japanese Otaku culture continues to rise, so does the safe feeling that BeautifulShy gets when watching CrunchyRoll.

How will TOPHATANT123 do before a live studio audience?

Luigi Dude is safe watching videos of people complaining at the second most visited website on the net (only second to Google which owns YouTube).

Where will BeautifulShy stream her video entertainment from?

What will Luigi Dude choose after the next commercial break?

People have been paying extra for HBO since the days of cable, so a streaming service containing that great library is safe for Mop it up.

Coming up next on Safe.TV Word+...MASB's selection!

That is right Khushrenada!
Jumping into an already oversaturated market in 2020 might have seemed risky, but with Comcast backing Peacock it is a safe service to subscribe to.

Up next we find out which streaming service NWR_insanolord would like to subscribe to?

Order.RSS has chosen the first streaming service to be added to NWR's Safe.TV Words+ bundle.
That means it is time to begin round 1 of our exclusive focus panel.
Khushrenada, which streaming service will you subscribe to?

Terms and Conditions
All panel members agree to the following terms and conditions
The panelists were assorted into a selection rotation based on the order in which they signed up. In order, they are given a list of possible streaming services to subscribe to and must select one of them. Unbeknownst to them, one of these streaming services will bomb and take all subscribers with it. If you selected that streaming service when it was your turn to choose, then you lost. That streaming service will no longer be available, and a new one will be selected by the panelist that went right before the bomb was selected. If none of the remaining panelists choose the bomb service, then the panelist who selected it to start the round is forced to choose their own bomb service and is eliminated. This process is repeated until only one streaming service remains and is declared the winner.
Message reminders
The administration will send panelists a pm alerting them to the fact the survey has begun. After that, it is up to the panelists to remember to check in on their own unless they notify the administration to send them a reminder when it is their turn.
Waiting for a selection
A generous time of 2 days (48 hours) is given for a panelist to select a service. If they've requested for me to send them a reminder when it is their turn, a message will be sent to alert them of that fact once it is their turn and 24 hours before their time to choose is up. If a choice has not been made by the end of the total 48 period, the panelist will be automatically given the bomb service and removed from the panel. The 48 hours begins from the timestamp of the post I make in this thread asking for their selection in the round.

Welcome Premium Panel Members to NWR's exclusive TV streaming service focus panel. I want to thank each of you for volunteering for such a bold initiative and I am pleased to say that all your credit cards passed our check and now have a substantial hold on them. That is just temporary of course as we decide the fate of the streaming wars right here. See folks, the TV landscape has changed, and with nobody watching cable anymore the data from existing ratings organizations is unreliable. Since the NWR forums are so popular and active, it was obvious that these folks are the real influencers of the day and so we value your opinion and your financial commitment. We will now ask you a series of questions (rounds) and all you have to do is answer by selecting one of the streaming services from the list available.
