    Just signed up to prime and started watching the Americans which is 5 seasons and meant to have a good ending.
    Can anyone recommend other good series that have a natural ending or without falling off the cliff quality wise

    If you like scifi watch the expanse. It's just started season 5 so cant guarantee the tidy ending, but everything up to the end of s4 didnt disappoint.

    I also really enjoyed Goliath, each season is a standalone story and gets better each season imho.

    Also enjoyed night manager, a quick 6 episode binge.

    Halt and catch fire is excellent.

    Depends what you're into but Jack Ryan, Hunters, Looming Tower, Man In The High Castle all worth a watch imo

    How you can list Jack Ryan with the others is beyond me.

    Another vote for Halt and Catch Fire, Justified and Bosch. And one of my all time favourite shows, Mad Men.

    Amazon want £19.50 though per season. It's good, but it's not that good.

    Oh balls, it used be available to stream


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,669 ✭✭✭Klonker


    Mad Men is great, one of my favourite shows ever but can be an acquired taste.

    The Boys is just great fun but be warned, it can be very gory (I bit too gory for my liking)

    Currently watching Vikings and I'm surprised how much I'm enjoying it, I didn't think it would be my cup of tea but it has some great characters.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,404 ✭✭✭✭Hurrache


    Vikings is as, if not more, gory than The Boys?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    The 3 seasons of Hannibal were added.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 542 ✭✭✭Bill Ponderosa


    Anyone watch A Massive Hunt yet? I love a bit of Clarkson.

    Ah here, do you really think so? Maybe the Vikings world feels more real than The Boys, so any violence in it has more impact, but The Boys is far more gory and graphic, at least to me. And I don't mind a bit of gore!

    Even though I did enjoy The Boys, it's really only started and hard to know if the quality will keep up as it goes on (season 2 wasn't as good as 1 for me).
    Vikings has been quite consistent since it started and with each season the scope of the story has expanded. The final part of the whole series is about to go up on Amazon shortly, so you could watch the entire thing start to finish.

    As others have mentioned already, Justified is definitely worth watching. One of the rare shows that really stuck the landing in the final episode too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,804 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    Yes, The Boys is gory but I found it more comical to be honest. Like zits popping most of the time.

    Really great series that I really enjoyed and recommend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,200 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    Any guesses on when Season 16 of Grey's Anatomy would be made available on Prime?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 745 ✭✭✭baron von something


    +1 for Vikings. It's consistently great and the final part of s06 is due soon

    I gave up on MITHC after the first season but in saying that I'm not a fan of Philip k Dick at all.

    Workaholics is also on prime. I thought I had grown out of dick&fart jokes but God its a bloody funny show. For some reason Amazon gave the first season a 13 ratings. Do not let your 13 year olds watch it.

    Aren't Disney releasing a channel called stars through their app with Grey's Anatomy on it. Might mean it goes altogether from Amazon.

    I started watching this earlier this year. I got an email from amazon saying that all seasons were to be removed in March 2020. They are still there obviously. I do think that you are right though. It will be removed


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 542 ✭✭✭Bill Ponderosa


    He certainly is.

    LOL!

    Watched it this evening, it's entertaining if a little pointless but I enjoyed watching the lads tear it up driving through Madagascar.
