Haven't you heard? People are "cutting the cord" and dropping cable like hotcakes and switching to streaming service. Get with the 2010's! :D

....but yet you offer no viewing suggestions....
 
We liked Alienist (on TNT. takes place in NYC in late 1890's) and the Sinner (on USA filmed in Hudson River region and South Carolina)

I guess we wil have to get rid of our Flips Phones and maybe actually look up and order something on Amazon. Maybe get a Twitter and/or Facebook Account. We somehow have survived very happily with none of these.

Watching television on cable is like going to a timeshare presentation: it's just one long commercial

With have Dish Network and skip the commercials automatically, so we don't have to push that button 6-8 times to get through the commercial break, which is great, but there are some shows the system won't let us skip commercials. Madame Secretary was one that would make us hit the button to skip through the commercials ourselves. Commercial advertisers must be putting pressure on some channels.

The Americans is a great show on Amazon Prime, but it's on FX, I think. Amazon Prime is better. This is the last season. I love that show and wait until at least three episodes are out to watch them all at once.
 
I am watching The Same Sky on Netflix. Set in East & West Berlin in the 1970s. Excellent series, but no playing spider solitaire on the Kindle while watching because 3/4 of it is in German with subtitles.

It only asked for viewing selections on Netflix and Amazon Prime.

I think it is safe to conclude that despite the title, the spirit of this thread searches for good viewing options wherever they may be.....
 
My son got me to watch Stranger Things, and Lost in Space, and to my surprise, I really liked both of them.
 
I am afraid I'll run out of things to watch on Netflix so I've reserved season two of The Crown and Stranger Things "just in case"!
 
I liked the first season of The Crown, but the reviews were so bad for the 2nd season, that I haven't watched it.
 
I finished watching Lost in Space last week. It was really well done and just got better with each episode. I also started watching Love on Netflix. It has three seasons its about young people and relationship and is a comedy. I really don't care for comedies but I am enjoying this one. Lead actor is sort of a woolly allen type character. If you are offended by young topless girls dont watch it.
 
few episodes into the new karate kid remake "Cobra Kai"...have to say...this is easily one of the better remakes/reboots ive seen in quite some time! (its on youtube vs netflix or amazon though)
 
Call the midwife-my girl’s binge. My midwife friend said it is very accurate. Set in a nunnery. The storyline is lovely.
The network-only 2 seasons. By Creator of west wing.
Occupied-Norway green party wanted to stop oil production. Eu need their oil. Russia is somewhat occupying N to ensure N starts oil again. Ex PM has turned closet terrorist. Fantastic. In Norwegian with subtitles so you have to pay attn.
 
loving the Arrested Development season 4 re-mix on Netflix and can't wait for season 5.

I highly recommend the novel this was based on (same name). We were so excited we could hardly wait for the series, but waited so we could binge watch without commercials...imagine our disappointment when we couldn’t fast forward through the commercials after waiting all that time! I just found out we can buy it on iTunes without commercials and can finally see it — hope it’s worth it!

Thanks. I plan on reading the Alienist during our trip to Birch Bay in July.

The Network, you mean "the Newsroom?"

It they meant The Newsroom, I completely agree. It ran for 2.5 seasons, and I thought it was one of the best series I've watched. Available on Amazon Prime.
