    Just wondering if there is any online service available in Ireland which had t The Americans in its lineup?

    I know it's not on Netflix. I caught series one and two a few years ago and liked it, wanted to follow up on that if I could.

    It's a show I want to watch but could never find either.

    Actually is there any way of checking any show and a country to see what services carry it?

    Seasons 1 to 4 are on Prime Video. I imagine 5 and 6 will be added eventually. The DVD box set will be released in October

    Cheers. I haven't had Prime that long so haven't looked for it there.

    Thank you. Good to know. I don't have a prime subscription but still good to know it's an option.

    Not a fan of DVD anymore. Hugely expensive to buy and then when you try to sell them on, people only want to pay a fiver for a boxer that cost over 60 :) Might buy one for a fiver myself on Adverts, a few months after the DVD comes out :pac:

    It was listed in my local council's library catalogue - s1-s3.

    Do a search https://librariesireland.iii.com/iii/encore/homepage?lang=eng

    Found one that said a set was due back in 2016, so guess it was never returned. The link above is a bit strange as I was only intending to search Fingal and ending up getting results for Meath and Limerick.

    Only thing about Prime which was the Irish set up was a bit crap in comparison to UK catalogue, at least starting out. Folks above might know more about that. The DVDs aren't too pricey on amazon, well, s1 and s2. No Blu Ray beyond the first season. Not surprising as it's a show that only had a small audience. Take your point about physical media, though.

    You can request an item from any library in Ireland and it will be sent to your local library for collection.
