I saw the trailer for this and wondered if it would be good!

Not something I would normally watch, but I was curious after your post. I was also drawn in and binged on it over the last few days .
Won’t tell you how it ends 😉

Fleabag on Prime. One of the funniest things I've ever seen.

I was thinking the same. My husband works for Navarro College. He says things have gone nuts on campus since the Netflix release.

I'd like to say that if you are a Prime member and watch Prime videos, the Fire 4K stick is a steal at $25 with a coupon code. I like the interface even better than Roku's (we also have 2 Roku Ultras). The top row shows the most recent apps or Prime programs you watched so you can go directly to them, and "Free to Me" on the menu shows just the stuff that is included with your Prime membership. I also have the Fire TV Recast DVR box and that integrates all the over-the-air channels and recordings into the top menu.

IMDB TV is a free-with-ads service owned by Amazon, and they have a number of good movies and classic TV (including vintage game shows) and some good original programs. I like Corner Gas, both animated and live-action.

Burn Notice on Prime is our latest binge, I have no idea how we missed this show when it was on regular tv. Plus it's like 7 seasons, so lots of shows before we run out!

We loved Sneaky Pete, so this show was recommended after we finished that one. Bummed that there won't be another season of that one.

Love Corner Gas! I'm eagerly awaiting the next season of the animated show.

Reading this thread looking for something new to watch BECAUSE...

I was watching The Closer (yes, I'm very late to the party on that old show) on Amazon Prime, just a few mornings a week over breakfast, really enjoying it. Then out of the blue, on Saturday, The Closer is NO LONGER ON AMAZON PRIME!! They want $2.99/episode or $24.99/season. Ugh!!

Tiny troubles, I know...thanks for letting me rant.

Hate when that happens. I'd been working my way through Friday Night Lights and had to stop for a while and when I went back they were charging for it. I think it's on Netflix now, but there are too many other things on my watch list at the moment.
