Why anyone would "buy" these the week that they air when there are readily available online is beyond me.

Yeah, it's crazy talk. I would think it would be more useful to add it to streaming services that already have some type of subscription (Netflix, Apple TV, etc). I'm not paying per show to get a broadcast TV show replay.

I'd like the whole Seasons of these shows on Netflix streaming, though.
