TV New Season!

And they all depend on having a semi-decent internet connection to achieve the same quality you'd get from HD via satellite/cable.

 

[DaGaffer]

Also increases spread of streaming services. To get the latest greatest shows you now need netflix, amazon, hbo, youtube red, and soon disneys own one for marvel/star wars

Its a shame because, among my circles at least, it feels like piracy was on its way out but now its becoming increasingly expensive again to actually watch these shows

DC are launching a service as well. The whole market is completely unsustainable and there will be some high profile failures. Having said that, some of these services won’t get released outside of North America anyway and their content will end up syndicated overseas as normal and/or the big two will aggregate their content overseas (which is already happening)

 

[Ormorof]

Here in finland theres also 3 local streaming services as well as all the old school cable companies launching their own, its absurd.

Looking forward to the implosions hope they all offload to netflix

Read somewhere that 20% or more internet activity is down to netflix which is huge.

I have netflix and amazon prime with the delivery bit the main reason for amazon. Cant see myself getting any more than that. Anything on other stuffs will be downloaded if i am desperate to watch it

Correct, the networks still sell top rated shows (for big money) to regional Sat/Cable networks and they often have the local streaming rights for their geographical area.

It will be interesting to see what happens to Netflix when the others all decide they want to take their content away for their own daft offerings.

Amazon getting some of the premiership rights will be interesting as well.

It's why Netflix is pumping out their own content at an unprecedented rate. They've got, like, 90 films and shows on the blow in 2018, whereas Warner Bros has, I think, 35...

 

[Gwadien]

Netflix also appears to make (on the whole) good quality shit, whereas the more traditional media outlets appear to be making films based upon hype.

YAY NEW BOG STANDARD STORY LINE SUPER HERO MOVIE!

Just finished watching The Alienist

Really liked it. Set in NY just before the turn of the 20th century. Figuring out a serial killer of boys. Its on Netflix

 

[Ormorof]

Just finished watching 2nd season of GLOW, was a lot of fun

Started slowly but really picked up, last few episodes were especially great

 

[Hawkwind]

Been watching Marcella on Netflix. Brit Cop Drama with Anna Friel. Pretty good, kinda of a female Luther and quite dark in places, especially the end of season 2.

I’m sure that was out a few years ago on terrestrial tv, I think it was ITV or C4?

It was on ITV, but I am not sure Hawkwind is in the UK pal... Great series...

Never watched any of it. American sit coms really dont do it for me these days.

 

[Jupitus]

Has anyone even mentioned The Handmaid's Tale, yet?

 

[caLLous]

Calm down @CorNokZ, TBBT has been dross for years.

Thought I did. Too grim for my missus. I was enjoying it tho.

Liked the book very much. TV was very different IMO.

Don't think I've seen it since Penny and Leonard got married

Started watching the new Amazon Tom Clancy's - Jack Ryan series and enjoying so far. Got a bit slammed in the media for patriotism which was always to be expected as it is loyal to the character of the books.

Mrs keeps falling asleep during the current TV dramas of choice (Bodyguard & Hidden) so I started to Ray Donovan on Netflix. Damn it's good but how the heck did I miss this Still 5 seasons to catch up on now and only half way through season 1.

 

[dysfunction]

I'll have to check it out

That doesn't seem to be available in the UK..

Checked online and it says Amazon Prime for UK but on looking it shows only the Series 5 episodes.

Ray Donovan Season 5 : Watch online now with Amazon Instant Video: Amazon.co.uk

My Netflix account is actually from our UK address. So I guess if you VPN'd (outside uk) then use Netflix you should be able to watch it. I have to VPN to UK to watch some of their content
