Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

I am really enjoying the movies and shows I’ve watched thus far. However, it would be nice if there was a way to easily add a movie or show to a Watch List like other streaming services. Not having this feature is the only reason I gave it 4 stars.
