Leverage tv series. It's kind of a light quirky show. It's free to watch on imdb tv which is on Prime Video and doesn't require a Prime sub to watch. Imdb tv has it's own free with ads website.

Took my nephew to the Imax theatre for Apollo 11 First steps, boy that sure was a great experience, nephew was totally impressed too.

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmzKBk2 ... e=youtu.be

Basicly they found a bunch of film they didn't know they had, stuck it all together, added a little music for suspense, et voilá. Great stuff.

Coming to the end of S3 of Jessica Jones, which is almost certainly also gonna be the last Netflix Marvel series.
I've enjoyed it, far better than S2 was but still not as good a S1.

Started Stranger Things S3. . . . it seems to be trying to do something a bit different plotwise this time, I'm not convinced it's going to work.
Still loving ALL the characterisation though.

Been watching Love Death and Robots on Netflix, almost half way through. Particularly liked Suits and Three Robots.

You pay a lump sum each year (it's about £70 for me, not sure what it is in your country) which gets you full access to all Amazon Prime videos, free delivery on many (although not all) products for sale on Amazon, a music streaming service, and a freebie Twitch subscription you can throw the way of any streamers you might happen to watch on that platform. Pretty darned good value all round, IMHO.

I see but I dont order stuff from amazon (there is no dedicated site for my country) and dont really watch twitch anymore (only watched TB's shoutcraft turnaments on it). I come across an add for Primevideo, I assume thats the same and that would be 3€ a month (6€ after 6 month) and looks similar to a HBO type thing. Just hope they have a decent app (unlike HBO which I canceled due to having sound lags a lot, only got it for GoT anyway). If its something like that I'm happy as I would not want to miss on the current best SciFi fix. :-)

Start to watch "The Rook" and also "Pennyworth". Both seem to be interesting.

I've had prime for about 5 years I think? I won't cancel it, though for a time i felt it wasn't the best value (Netflix isn't far off the same cost - I don't have netflix). Then I started trying various series (including RWBY when i stumbled on it) and since I don't have a TV license or TV, it's my main method of entertainment (other than Youtube - and games of course). Using it a heck of a lot more these days, hence why happy with it for the price. Also, I buy a fair amount of oddities.

But rather than take the plunge, try it for free? There's a 30 day free trial - just be sure to cancel if its not your cup of tea. If unsure, wait until all episodes are on for whatever you want so you can watch the entire thing in that 30 days...

It looks like they are making a new hitchhikers guide to the galaxy tv series for hulu.

https://deadline.com/2019/07/the-hitchh ... 202652440/

The Orville season 3 will be on hulu not fox so maybe it will require a hulu subscription or not?

Another Life on netflix. An alien ship/device lands on earth, gathers and transmits data and a crew is sent into space to find it's origin and why it was sent. Katee Sackhoff from Battle Star Galactica is the star of the show.

Ah, hell yes! I saw the trailer a while back, and forgot it's now been released. I've just finished bingewatching Angel episodes (binge took me 5 months. I'm rubbish at bingewatching) and had been grumping about what to watch next across Netflix, Prime & Sky. Will watch an episode tonight. Thank you!

“I…” Had she just called him fat? “I am just a different species, that’s all.”

“Well nature sure does have a sense of humour then,” Styanar said. “Shall we go inside? It’d not be a good idea for me to be spotted by others.”

UK Amazon prime seems to have had a lot of 'old' series added, Elementary, NCIS, House, Justified and a few others.

Abandoned 'Another Life' after 25 minutes. Dreadfully shallow characters and totally lacking in subtlety. A total and utter crock, and it's a shame because the premise was a good one. Just another angst ridden soap opera, this one with a sci-fi backdrop.
