Tried to find Continuum and Prime states it's not available in my area. Guess the US doesn't have it on Prime..
Hmm - Just checked to make sure it was definitely Amazon Prime (it is) - but - I am in Canada so maybe different content here - It is a Canadian production so maybe the distribution / licensing / timing for the US is different?

It is worth the watch if it comes up later - and story did not fade in the last 2 seasons like some series do - enjoyed all the episodes right up to the last one.

Agreed. What were the other two?
I looked for a while and I couldn’t find a show from 2021, just 2020 or 2019 actually.

If I look on these 3 years, I would put Succession (shoot it’s 2018), Resident Alien and The Boys. So I’ll have to add the Morning Show, then.

What about you, any top 3 for the past 3 years?

Oh that’s a tough one. Not watched that much TV of late. Whilst most people were binge watching TV in lockdown, I was just working longer and longer hours.

Oh I see. I hope that’s it’s less hectic for you, now.

I tend to watch a lot of shows since many years and it’s difficult for me to abandon one show.

Even when I hate one show I still continue! Except this time for Handmaid’s Tale: I gave up at the end of the previous season. The first was excellent but then it went worst & worst, until all this violence made me smirk and laugh and I couldn’t take it anymore. I got so angry & upset, so weird.

Have to say I've never watched it. Been watching a number of shows that have run for years like the Blacklist (which has deteriorated a lot) and others. The fact that I'm trying to recall any shows says a lot!

No work is as mental as ever!

I read the novel thinking I'd like the show... still haven't bothered to watch it yet.


This show though... lol. Love it.

Just finished Season 4 of Breaking Bad. That was a hell of a season and I think this show just gets progressively better as it goes. Walt wasn't lying when he says "I am the danger". That final moment was pretty shocking, but he was pretty bad ass in this entire episode. That really would have been a nice series finale, so I'm excited to see how this series really ends.

One of the best series ever IMHO. ENJOY!

Just checked it out, it’s available for purchase in the US on AppleTv, Google, and Vudu, season 1 is $25. I don’t think so. :)

Prime Video has something called Continuum, but it is only 2 seasons and involves a beautiful woman adrift on a spaceship and that is for purchase too. ?

What pisses me the hell off is when these streaming services show different content in different countries. My understanding is that this was originally a SYFY network show and I have seen shows from SYFY appearing for streaming as part of something like Netflix or Prime’s offerings.

Of all the subscription based streaming services, Apple TV is among the weakest for content. I got the free subscription because I bought a iphone (I think) but will be cancelling it this month.

Its hard to enjoy another TV show after Better Call Saul. It seems it has fallen under the radar. Its getting a meager 1.3ish ratings compared to GoT's 9.0+

Thats the thing with BB, while other shows have a bell curve quality or downward graph line... BB's quality line ascends

Bosch (Prime Video)- I’m up to Season 5, outstanding police detective drama. :D
One of my favorite shows and the final season airs on Friday...

I you like the show, try the books. Outstanding books IMHO. I am on book 14 and have liked/loved everyone. The show mixes the books, so you can have several books going across one season of the show.

There is going to be a spinoff but with Bosch, his daughter, and Money Chandler. Now what pisses me off is they are moving this series to IMDB TV for another fricking subscription, bastardos. :confused:

Well, isn’t that special? I won’t be following the spin off. I’m not going to subscribe to multiple pay sights to watch tv/movies. I’m a prime member and have Disney + which is all I’m willing to do.
