Yeah just googled it and seen its no longer on netflix in the uk and will be on a new streaming service that doesn't launch until next year:(

It seemed like only about 6 months since last series but was actually about a year.

the only person i know that does all the illegal downloading (who i got the 1st mandalorean season off) hates discovery. Oh well i'll have to figure something out later :(

Netflix used to be like Britbox but for US shows. Now they expect us to sign up to every single one of their streaming services as well as our own. I'll need to rob a bank first.

Yeah i know. It's like 1st series of mandalorean again. I watched a pirate of that which my mate downloaded for me.

Series 2 i got a disney+ sub and then cancelled it when the series finished as nothing else on there i wanted to watch.

But yeah there are far too many streaming services now.

I will be pissed off if this happens with last season of better call saul :mad:
 
I watched Season 1 to 3 of Discovery on Netflix (I have Netflix and Prime) and would have been quite happy to watch S4 as well
I watched the first 3 seasons of the Expanse on Netflix and then switched to Prime for the last 2, The other way round with Lucifer watched the first 3 on Prime on the next 3 on Netflix.
This cancelling partway through has happened to us twice, we got 2 seasons into Psych and 4 seasons into Bones on Prime before they switched over to having to pay. Both cases I believe were because they moved to another streaming platform.
So I've torrented both (finished Psych, still watching Bones). There is a limit to how many streaming services someone might be willing to get. Netflix has loads of great shows well worth a tenner of anyones money and we have Prime for free shipping, the video streaming is just a nice bonus but I'm not going to fork out for more, this is getting to be a too crowded market.
 
It's maddening. I try to hop between streaming services every couple of months so I get to see particular shows but it's getting ridiculous. Can't see I'm going to want to pay for Paramount just for one show (the rest of the line up looks right dreck). I've paid for Apple TV for Foundation and The Morning Show -both worth watching if flawed - but this has ended up costing me ÂŁ7.50 per show which doesn't feel like great value. Streaming subscriptions just don't make sense without loads of content that you want to see. Oh well, bye bye Disco, the last season was terrible anyway.
 
just fucking meh. If you haven't seen it, bit still clicked on the spoiler, imagine series one, then series two, and then seriesthree. It's like that but with shiny uniforms, and a torrent. O was irritated at the start (Why send you commanding officer down to a possible hostile planet?), and the just bored by the end (mysterious galactic force is fucking shot up and Burnham - after being promoted - is suddenly told she's not ready. They've seemly replaced the 'someone crying every three scenes' quota with 'someone staring directly at the camera smiling and nodding'. Also, what was she dressed as a priest?

Yeah if I'm gonna be expected to remember plot stuff from season 3 (there was a green woman and...that's it that's all I've got) then I'll skip the new one. Especially if it's gone from netflix.
 
Will admit seeming as no one had explained how long Kelpians lived for

the last season of discovery was kinda of a canon break, with a Kelpian spending 100 years on a lost ship
after watching his mother die at 5-6 years old , who explained the Vahar'ai to him

we are normally culled Saru and i broke away well we tend to live for ages...
 
Wasn't a terrible episode, but there was a lot of smiling smugly at each other in the first half. Liked the captain on the station they went to save.

if there's a series i need to see i tend to sign up for a month, watch the thing i wanted to watch, then watch everything else that takes my fancy while i still have membership. It's still cheaper than buying the DVD. What's infuriating about ST Discovery is that there are no legal options for watching it - are they asking to be pirated?

Its exactly what happenned with series 1 of mandalorean on disney+ and of course loads pirated it.

Sign up for a month on paramount and then dump it is what i'll probably do. Just hope they don't have a 6 month minimum signup clause or something like that! (Disney didn't)

i was lucky with Disney+ because i was given 6 months free with my new phone deal so I got through pretty much most of what i wanted to see in that time. I'll be OK for a while!

:hmm:


ponders how much that costs


was looking forward to it but when a production more or less gives the middle finger to its fans like this am resisting taking interest again

oh ok if its just a random streaming app happy days
 
I watched the 2 seasons of The Orville on Disney+ recently. I highly recommend it, much much MUCH better than this shit. It's more "Star Trek" than Discovery could ever dream of being.

I’ve just looked at the channels on Samsung TV Plus. I have a load of Pluto TV Channels but not the Pluto TV Sci Fi channel.

I also seem to have a dedicated Baywatch channel.

There is a pluto app in the google playstore. Unfortunately when i tried to download it earlier it said download pending so maybe it is busy.
