    picard is awful. Won't be wasting time on a 2nd series. Won't give spoilers but laughable last two episodes, like the script writer asked his 4 year old for ideas and just put them without thinking.

    Re: Amazon Prime - TV Recommendations

    Hi everyone !

    So, if you like thrillers with action then I can recommend Jack Ryan.
    It is that typical CIA-agent kind of thing, but really good actors and making. Also great if you liked the TV-show "The Office (US)"

    I also watched Vikings for some time, but I have to admit it never really got me. Sometimes I got bored a little ....

    American Gods is amazing. It is very weird and it need some time to understand what is actually happening. But the pictures and story is really cool. A must-see if you are looking for something "different".

    Probably the best one on Amazon so far is Carnival Row. AMAZING TV-show with fantasy-genre. Actors like Orlando Bloom. Nothing but great. Really thrilling and nothing for kids. One of the best TV-shiws I have seen in a while

    Enjoy watching everyone !

    Re: Amazon Prime - TV Recommendations

    If you want something a bit different, there's a good documentary on Prime Video called Top Guns. As you might expect it's about Fighter Weapons School, Miramar, and F-14 Tomcats. It's basically interviews with some of the real pilots as well as lots of real footage from dogfights, carrier landings etc.

    It's old (made in the late 80's I think, when the Tomcat was still in its prime) so is in 4:3 and SD. But if you're into military aviation it gives a real insight into what it was like to fly these beasts. And these real-life pilots are just as competitive as Maverick, Iceman, Viper and the rest of them.

    There's even a section about night-time carrier landings. Honestly, I don't know how these guys managed to fit their balls inside the cockpit

    I've started to loathe Amazon for doing that.
    I feel the free offerings are going to suffer soon that aren't Prime exclusives.

    some stuff came back recently. Agents of shield series 6 is now free with prime, whereas a year ago they were charging so stuff does come through, so long as you don't mind a wait and all the inevitable spoilers in the office in the meantime. The latter is obviously less of an issue atm...

    I'm curious about this too. I watched the first 3 and a half episodes about 6 months ago, but just couldn't get into it, found the pace a bit too slow.

    Upload is fantastic - can't wait for season 2. Good mix of dark comedy and drama with a perfect amount of what ifs.

    Re: Amazon Prime - TV Recommendations

    In my opinion, Criminal Minds is one of the best series on Prime, but the last season is not available yet. But then there are Scrubs, how I met your mother, the bin bang theory and supernatural that you could watch.
