While this kind of supports your point that there's nothing there, it's actually not as massive and their hubs allow for a systematic going through

The first night I had access to HBO Max, I stayed up way too late watching Looney Tunes.
After that, I pulled up the TCM hub and after giggling at some of the stuff chosen as featured, I selected the A-Z and went well, A-Z through that tab and bookmarked everything that interested me. That led to bookmarks for 8 1/2 to Godzilla movies to samurai movies to Ingrid Bergman movies I hadn't seen. There's actually not nearly as many as one would hope. Took like maybe 10 minutes.
Did the same for the other hubs that I had interest in such as DC and CN. Same for the documentaries sub section of HBO.
I did something similar for Disney+ after I watched the Mandalorian. Picked categories that interested me, went through Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars (that was fun as I had no idea on just how much content there was) and even the National Geographic.
Cruncyroll I paid for to watch Food Wars but I did the same there which led to some uh, really interesting things.
I will grant that I haven't really gone through Peacock as I'm paying them to watch the Premier League and it's actually cheaper than what I was paying for NBC Sports Gold. I'm guessing that Comcast doesn't care why I'm paying them, just that I'm paying them so in that case, the scatter shot approach to content kind of works?
I think that Netflix and Amazon are the one's that are massive and unwieldly but I guess they benefit from being the incumbents?
