However nonetheless \u2014 nearly $30\/month!<\/p>\n<p>And for what, precisely? The privilege of watching beloved reveals get canceled left and proper? Netflix has made a behavior out of axing fan-favorites like <em>1899, The OA, Inside Job, GLOW,<\/em> and <em>Warrior Nun<\/em> \u2014 typically simply as they\u2019re choosing up momentum.
