Cheers. Not on Prime at the moment. Too many monthly subs going as it is (Sky, Neon, Netflix, VPN)
Might swap one out soon though. Neon is a bit dead at the moment.

It was useful before the rise in streaming services down in the SH, there is no need now.
The only show I want to watch, that I haven't been able to is the latest Fargo as it's not streaming here in Oz.

@nepia when somethign is on a platform I dont have, I might grab a couple eps from the bay to see if it is worth it (or some older movies/series that arent available elsewhere)

TBH, the main reason I don't download is that most of the sites are blocked in Oz without a VPN, and laziness gets the better of me - and there's a wealth of shows on the current streamers that I can watch.
Although, I do have a mate who runs a Plex server and if I asked he'd grab anything I wanted.

That was on SoHo in NZ, which has all of the HBO shows (later on Neon). Is there not an equivalent platform in Aust?
I received an email last week to say that my Apple TV+ subscription is about to end. I'll cancel and then wait until See has been released so I can watch that and Ted Lasso at the same time.
I get some downloaded content from a friend when older shows aren't available anywhere else.

Binge is the HBO channel, but Fargo isn't HBO, it's FX. The first 3 seasons are on Netflix, but the latests is only available to rent.
I haven't got my Apple TV cancellation yet.

city on a hill
Gritty boston set in the 90's crime show that reminds me of movies like "the Town". Kudos to @Nepia on his suggestion this is a good series. Some great characters in this one.
-
@bayimports I have enjoyed it too, and Kevin Bacon is great.
-
Could probably go in the Doc thread, but meh it's on TV and a series (not an 8 hour film).
Philly D.A.
A groundbreaking documentary series embedded inside the shocking election and tumultuous first term of Larry Krasner (spent 30 years as a civil rights attorney and public defender), the most controversial District Attorney in the nation, and his mission to upend the criminal justice system from within.
Yeah really interesting, watch it!

Dr Death on Stan
Dramatisation of a neurosurgeon in the USA who was sentenced to life imprisonment following a series of tragically incompetent spinal surgeries.
From wikipedia: He completed his residency having participated in fewer than 100 surgeries. Typically, neurosurgery residents participate in over 1,000 surgeries during residency.
Good watch and slightly concerning given medical incompetence in hospitals was the third largest killer after heart disease and cancer. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7476634/)

I have finally got around to watching Gangs of London. What a weird show. I could accept if they deliberately 'comic booked' it, like say The Boys, but to make out it is realistic? Taking the proverbial.
People getting shot half a dozen times in the back that still manage to function for the next five minutes? Exploding heads from either explosive of hollow point high velocity rounds but when the same gun shoots a main character the bullet just lodges neatly in his side?
I love the OTT violence but at least make it clear that it's all bullshit.
Oh, and it needs more titties. -
@crucial lol it was next on my watch list..will keep in mind

I agree with everything he says, but he didn't say it was bad! Worth watching.
