At least the reader gets that it's a snapshot review, right? Best Thing Ever is just hyperbole.
Takes a long time (months, years) to put anything into proper historical context, I think.
Peaked with View to a Kill - obviously.

This is what that junkie loser Amy Winehouse blew:
1. Bond movie theme song commission
2. Rolling Stones world tour support gig
3. Life & Love
Don't be like junkie loser Amy kidz
Just say no

Yes, this is one of my pet hates. It's not just skipping through episodes of a show either. You've just watched the climax to a 2 hour film; the credits start rolling with some appropriate music which usually matches your feelings of the ending; then 3 seconds later you find yourself watching a trailer for some shitehouse Netflix produced film with a slowed down 80s song cover playing over the top.
As for the Bond theme, I went from thinking it was a bit pony to actually really liking it within a single listen.
A decent tune but it's hardly, the living daylight's, is it ?

For those complaining about Netflix playing next episode/trailer you can change this in your Netflix account setting. Log on and you can do it.

Have you thought of using the pause button?
Doesn't work at the cinema though and I do agree about people leaving as soon as it ends.
Incidentally I thought that the Stranger was good until the last 15 minutes of the last episode. Then it got silly.
You literally said it was it "possibly the worst ever" - comparing it, unfavourably, to every Bond theme through history.
A bit like naming "Mac Allister the worst Albion No.10 ever" after you've seen him play for 20 min (don't do that).

They've finally fixed it! Log in to netflix on a browser and go to edit your profile. You can turn off auto-play!!

Have you nothing better to do than split hairs?
Get a life ffs
I will rephrase my original post:
I hate this and maybe after 20 listens to a track I really dislike and having played every other Bond theme several times over I will THEN decide if it is the worst theme ever.
Better?

I find society nowadays appear to HATE things instantaniously, I'd rather give it the benefit of listening or watching it over time & only then making a judgement.
I believe it relates to how people now want instant gratification, there's no middle ground, 'Love or Hate', why has it got to be a binary choice??
Ok, the new Bond theme isn't ground breaking but it's a good attempt that totally fits the remit for me.
An 18yr old to be writing the theme tune for an iconic franchise is totally amazing, don't bin it in an instant, take your time and listen, learn to appreciate, life's too short.

I still want it to play the next episode, I just don't want it to start playing it 3 seconds after the credits start rolling on the previous episode.

Press the pause button after 2 seconds?
Often watching on iMac where I’m not near the controls - also that’s still missing the point a little as I WANT the credits music as the background to my contemplations.
I’m 5 episodes in and we’re enjoying it while also thinking it’s a little silly, feels like too many different strands to keep hold of at once but hopefully it’ll all come together and make sense.
