November 5, 2024 - I realize that I should reserve the term "hate" for people and things that do me and mine possible criminal harm. However, I shall say...that I extremely dislike X-Ray on Amazon Prime. If I am not mistaken, not long ago it was necessary to actively select the X-Ray "feature". Now, according to the information I have been able to obtain. It is impossible to turn off X-Ray. Why Amazon Prime thinks this is a good idea is beyond me. Everytime I pause what I am watching, X-Ray will pop up in the far left corner of my screen with info about the actors/actresses that are in the scene. Now... they are pandering to the people that spend more time on their phones than watching what is on their screens. Yes.. I'm old, and decades ago, viewers paid close attention to what they were actually watching on their TVs. Commercial breaks were used for conversation amongst the people watching the film/TV production, getting refreshments, and/or "making a pit stop". Now in the age of "multitasking", people try to do numerous things while "watching" something on their screen or device. One of my theories as to why film and TV productions are so subpar. Is because the entertainment industry knows its audience, and knows that their attention is so divided. That they will accept even the worst possible productions, and actually think they are great.
