Mere months after they announced ads for all Prime Video viewers, Amazon is finding themselves in hot water with consumers. A Washington customer filed a class-action lawsuit against the streamer, attesting that the media giant breached its contract with “false advertising” by charging an additional $2.99 to circumvent ads on top of the annual Prime subscription cost of $139 that already promises ad-free viewing — a subscription benefit that has been the platform’s standard since 2011.
Meanwhile, another streamer is keeping its $250 million promise of more Adam Sandler. The Sandman and Uncut Gems co-director Josh Safdie are reuniting for a new stand-up special at Netflix. The not-yet-titled special will be Sandler’s second for the streamer after his 2018 Emmy-nominated 100% Fresh. It, of course, will join the bevvy of Sandman Netflix originals, including his upcoming sports memorabilia film with the Safdie Brothers, the sci-fi drama Spaceman and recent releases like Leo and You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah.
The streamers might be doing everything in their power to keep you from being entertained, but the timeline is picking up the slack with a new batch of hilarious tweets. Today’s funniest ones include those about a FedEx truck that doesn’t know it’s for ground delivery, an office building built by Count Olaf and Natasha Bedingfield’s hot dog.
