Default What are you streaming?

I just subscribed to Apple TV (free with new iphone). I started watching "The Morning News" with Jeniffer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon. It's likely not for everyone, but I'm enjoying it.

I've seen the ads for "Constellation" series and "Ted Lasso." I'll probably check those out. Some movies seem interesting. Started watching "Killer of the Flower Moon." It's a long movie. Watched it for a little less than an hour, gave up on it. Rick says he'll watch it on the treadmill.

Do any of you subscribe? Any suggestions of things to watch?

I find we are rarely watching Amazon Prime these days. Net Flix just a little.

I only pay for netflix, amazon prime and Hulu. We watch youtube (free) and broadcast tv lol. So I may drop all the paid services. The last series I watched streaming was Fall of the House of Usher. That is a great series if you have Netflix and especially if you lke Edgar Allen Poe. Hint, the series is that story but each episode takes on the plot of some of his other stories so that made it even more fun to watch

Netflix, Amazon and Apple but I mostly watch PBS thru Passport.

The Morning Show was very good (I need to get back to it) as was Ted Lasso. I hated to see Ted Lasso end. I need to start watching Masters of the Air.

I do have an antenna and I get approximately 50 channels of local TV.

Netflix, Amazon and HULU. I guess that's a popular combo.

We have Amazon and Netflix and still buy cable. With the use of streaming, if I could save some money, I'd change our cable TV to basic cable, but the price difference doesn't make it worth it. I also have Paramount and that will likely be cancelled soon. The Apple TV may stay after the promotion ends. We cheapened our Net Flix plan recently. Our son and his family were also using our plan and Netflix was making it hard to share the plan, so we downgraded our plan and they bought their own.

We don't watch much on Amazon these days....

Britbox, Netflix and Acorn. At the moment watching Suits and Young Sheldon on Netflix and Vera and Shetland on Britbox. Don't have cable and don't miss it.

I cut the cord on cable and stream all of my tv. I DO NOT want or care about Apple tv. I subscribe to Britbox, Acorn and Netflix. Haven't missed cable at all.

Personal reasons on no interest in Apple TV, Val? I had never even looked into Apple TV before the free promotion. These streaming services do add up.... There are some things I want to watch. We will see if I continue after promotion ends. I was happy to subscribe to Paramount when the movie "Finest Kind" was coming out. Now I rarely watch it. Rick is finishing up a series. When he's done with that, I'll likely cancel.

Repeating myself, I would happily cut the cable cord, but we still watch local news. If I cut the cord, the news channels offered to me would be out of RI, vs MA. That's still a deal breaker.
