    Actually I wouldn't mind that list you requested .... I've used Amazon largely for films last 6 months or so so it would be useful lol

    One good thing about Amazon... their switch of 4k policy to same as Netflix.

    They started with chargingabout 8 quid more for 4k versions of films. Then just added a pound a month.

    Went back into my library and loads of my films originally just HD have been upgraded to 4k.

    Things I've watched on Amazon

    Man In the High Castle (best show on Amazon)
    Vikings
    Cloak and Dagger
    American Gods
    The Terror
    Black Sails

    But Amazon is way better for films than Netflix, Frankly Netflix isn't great for films.

    I like a few of them. Preacher started well but tailed off.
    I enjoyed The Americans but did eventually get bored it should have come to an end sooner.
    Hate Vikings.

    I think I have a free trial so might binge watch something on there.

    Godless and The Sinner are very good. Altered Carbon and The OA I love but some may say they are average.

    Man in high castle is really good. Vikings is really good too... but not Amazon over here.

    Not sure how it's even possibe to not like vikings...I find that as credible as people who say they don't like chocolate. :bandit:

    I liked OA but didn't like AC.

    My favourite Netflix shows you didn't mention.

    Marco Polo - bummed it got cancelled. One of my favourite shows from last several years. Still hoping they decide to pick up on one of the spin offs proposed... but because of Weinstein'S involvement that probably won't happen.

    Peaky Blinders - it's only on Netflix here

    Last Kingdom - it's only on Netflix here

    And...

    Dark.

    I watched a few seasons of it and enjoyed it to a point but I don't think it's anything special.

    Not sure if showed in the UK but Hulu has a show called The Path. Lasted 3 seasons and was pretty good (first season wasnt great but the show improved with time if you can get past the early episodes)

    Premise is basically centereD around a sometimes violent cult and various people at the core gradually start becoming disillusioned buy can't leave.

    Any show that has Jessie Pinkman from breaking bad as a cult leader you know can't be all bad.

    Wont happen for the same reason it was cancelled, was ridiculously expensive to make. Like really really expensive, on a par with GoT expensive.

    The Package

    A gross out teen comedy, if you liked Teeth then this would appeal. Mrs and daughter thought it was disgusting, but still watched it all. 3/10

    Its quality seems to be declining with each series.

    This last series introduced one of the most irritating characters, Badison. Plus with Piper now being released you question how much longer they can milk it.

    Still worth watching but I hope they don't over do it and perhaps look to bring it to an end sooner rather than later.
