It might have changed now but it seemed as though they didn’t even have many full series for completed shows! I found something I wanted to watch and it only ended up having 2/3 seasons out of say 6/7! I found it hard to search for stuff too because it would show DVDs and stuff too so I was never sure what they did have and what they didn’t! That said, I am interested in The Man in the High Castle!

Just realised that Stinky Pete is from Toy Story 2 haha! This post has been edited by *dandyman 🐝🐝**: Oct 8 2017, 04:13 PM

I have not see The Man in the High Castle - by all accounts it's good, but it's had nothing like the mainstream exposure like Stranger Things, House of Cards, or Orange is the New Black has had. Netflix's business model is good as now before everyone else starts their own streaming model (looking at you Disney) they have established themselves in the marketplace with some great original content so that it does not really matter too much if they lose some of their licensed content.

Yeah I’d agree. They need a big hit but their originals seem to miss the mark more often than not. I’m just waiting for content deals to become global rather than the US just getting everything. Streaming can kill off piracy but so far the traditional networks in the US just haven’t made the leap they need to be in the right mindset

Before that the 4 season pirate/Treasure Island prequel Black Sails was particularly strong after a stumbling first half of season 1. Captain Flint became one of the most nuanced and deep characters I've ever seen in a TV show after initially appearing quite stereotypical and John Silver's iffy acting in the beginning is actually part of the character and soon drops away as he reveals his true self.

I still order a lot from Amazon but lately Ive found some things for the same price or slightly less expensive in stores. I always compare before I buy something that isnt a staple that Ive already checked.
