We'll have to see if this service has enough original content of a high caliber to warrant the additional money spent

Oh, I agree. I have Netflix/Hulu/Amazon and have never missed cable.
My point was that DC could get a few people willing to pay to keep this service going while Netflix has to keep numbers up giving the vast sums they spend.

This is true, though I'm wondering how many they'll actually get if what they put out is as....menial looking as Titans.

Choices/options are great, but whenever I check out TV shows that first air on cable or premium subscription services (by borrowing DVDs from the library), I'm usually underwhelmed. Game of Thrones is a really good example. Even though most seasons run 10 episodes or less, I stopped watching after Season 4. I was just bored to tears. (Same thing with Mad Men, I stopped after a few episodes during Season 1.)
On the other hand, there are a couple of shows on broadcast TV that I follow regularly, and they're ones that I actually enjoy or binge-watched in order to catch up on previous seasons.

I just feel that so many episodes were filler. It's so obvious that the families/clans fighting each other would be either completely futile or set aside so that they could defend against the White Walkers.
Anyway, the show's just really boring (at least to me).

You are not alone. Boring to say the least.

I liked season 1-4, then it started falling off a cliff once it diverged from the books. It just feels really dumb and out of place. Of course, this is from someone who reads the books, histories, and encyclopedia of Westeros.

The Lynda Carter Wonder Woman series will be in HD.
So, that's 15 months for $75, which works out to $5 per month.
