Bit the bullet and signed up.

2 questions -

1 how do I know which shows are free? Been caught out with Amazon before and bought stuff I thought was free

2 which shows are on there you think I'll like? Based on:

Shows I already watch/like:

Friends
Charmed
Gilmore girls
White collar
Death in paradise
Endeavour/morse/Lewis
Broadchurch
The good wife
Lie to me
Scorpion
Jonathan creek
Sherlock
Bones
Prison break (though it jumped shark at end)
Stranger things
Unforgotten
Call the midwife
Scream tv series
Jane the Virgin
Suits

NOT for me (either I don't like subject matter and won't watch or couldn't get into)

Oitnb
Breaking bad/better call Saul - basically anything that glorifies drug use/dealing I'm not interested
Pretty little things
Once upon a time - went off it
Grimm

So what should I try?

Recently got amazon prime and have watched free

New Amsterdam - hospital drama, enjoyed this
Bosch - pretty good
Donovan - really liked this, Leiv is easy on the eye!
Man in the High Castle - series 1, very interesting complex storyline
Hell on Wheels- about building the railway across America, only watched series 1 so far but good story.

Enjoy!

Vikings, American Gods, Preacher, Bosch, Sneaky Pete, the man in the high castle. I've just started watching Hanna, it's very good so far.

Parks and Recreation is fantastic. Really sad that I’ve recently finished watching it.

olderthanyouthink · 31/03/2019 22:35

New Amsterdam, I binged it in a couple days

crazygirluk · 31/03/2019 22:41

I agree with New Amsterdam. I've also started to make my way through Life In Pieces.

fruitbrewhaha · 31/03/2019 22:45

Corner Gas is really funny.

NicoAndTheNiners · 31/03/2019 22:47

I agree with Supernatural. I've just got into it and there's a gazillion seasons!

Ooh yeah and preacher

Cocolepew · 31/03/2019 22:53

Bosch
Ray Donovan
Goliath, the first was better than the second one though.

FloofyDoof · 31/03/2019 22:55

Halt and catch fire, the americans and start up are also really good.

Graphista · 31/03/2019 23:58

I tried Bosch before, the people who like did you like it straight away?

Ray Donovan I really didn't like, couldn't warm to the characters and too much ott violence.

The Americans I started watching on terrestrial tv then I think bloody sky stole it! That's on my watchlist, also scandal and greys anatomy.

Any of you use the free reading material? I was pleasantly surprised to discover this includes magazines but is it only the featured mags? Can you search for mags?
