TV Shows What are you currently watching?

Ads, on amazon prime.
First time they've appeared. Had 3+mins worth of ads in a single episode of Invincible, yet none during Expend4bles. Why am i paying foir ads?

 

I suppose Jeff didn't like the idea of putting prices up first, then introducing a cheaper (at the original price!) ad-supported tier a few months later. <shrug>

 

Weirdly, the only option to get rid of adds is monthly, there isnt a annual rate...

EDIT - i think what annoyed me most about the ads, is not that they exist, but that they were just thrown randomly into the episode. If it was 2 or 3 adds prior to the episode/film then fine, but dont break the flow...

 

I get a popup for 15s every half hour or so. Not a problem at all. Maybe it depends what you're watching?

 

They're not even placed at points designed for ad breaks (on US shows)!

Should've worked, but fell flat for me

 

Uncanny Counter, started auto playing other day netflix and i am enjoying its similar to the anime bleach

 

Been following this English boat builder on and off for about two years now.

Sampson Boat Co - YouTube

 

New Amsterdam has had my eye for a bit now on Netflix recommendations, I started last week, now I'm mid season 2

 

We've been watching Killing Eve. Season 3 onward has been a slog, 2 more episodes and we're done though.

Rev. for the first time, 14 years after it was first shown…

A vicar that takes off his dog collar, then shouts “F*ck off” at a trio of repeatedly and very, annoying builders, deserves respect.

 

About to rewatch all the purge movies ..... missus suggested it. felt purgy lately so watch we must do lol

 

Shogun S1 - 7/10

‘‘Twas good, I did enjoy it. The atmosphere and the visuals are fantastic. Felt a bit slow-moving at times though, did feel like it plodded its way through some episodes.

 

We just watched the final destination movies 1,2,3,5 and was looking for something to watch next... think the purge movies will go down well! thanks for the reminder they exist lol.

 

Yeah, 4 of them, onto no 3 tonight

 

I watched The Old Man season 1.

I don't really know whether I liked it or not. It was.. I dunno. There was a big dramatic twist near/at the end of the season that a blind man should have seen coming, and like.. Some elements of the story seemed to actively conflict with what I was being told by my eye parts.

It feels like the story was just left half finished, like the last scene before the credits was as far as the writers got before knocking off early on a Friday before a long weekend of drugs and alcohol and they just kinda forgot they didn't really finish, and no one else noticed either.

Because streaming services are just the new US Cable companies. Nipple rubbing and all.

 

The New Statesman.... change the names of the politicials and nothing has changed in 35 years.

 

The Acolyte. Entertaining enough but I felt it tried just a tad too much to be all twisty turny, seemingly for the sake of it, all in the last episode. Felt a bit twee and contrived.
