    Love/Hate is also worth a watch, at least for us youngsters.

    The problem with just about all the streaming services is that they dont produce enough new stuff to justify a subscription.
    I am happy with Prime even though I dont watch that much on there.
    My wife reads books on her kindle, and gets them all free.
    We also get free, quick, deliveries.
    I dont watch Netflix that much, but I cut back a little on Sky, and I have got it included with what I have left.
    I dont know how much I could save by knocking it off.
    I have had a couple of trials of Apple+, after buying a new phone, and something else.
    Sky was recently offering another one, but I had a look, and there was nothing on there I wanted to watch.
    Disney+ had an offer of £1.99 per month for 3 months, the other day, but there was nothing that appealed on there either.
    I had a one month Acorn free trial, a while ago, and after a couple of weeks, I was struggling to find anything more that was worth watching.

    I might have said it before, but in the future I could see myself subscribing for a month every now and again, and cancelling before the end of the month.

    This is the problem that the various streaming services have. Put simply, the majority will fold pretty soon. It is a shrinking market, with far too many companies in it.

    Like you, I have reduced my Sky subscription, keep Prime for exactly the reasons you mention, and most others have gone or are going. Simply because they offer poor value for money.

    I might have said it before, but in the future I could see myself subscribing for a month every now and again, and cancelling before the end of the month.
    So for example if I didnt have Netflix, I would see subscribing for one month, in order to watch 5 series of Top Boy, and anything else I might have missed, and then cancelling, as value for money.

    Ok.
    I havent watched any of Bosch yet.
    I decided to watch it all again from the beginning.
    Currently on series 2.
    So by the time I finish, the whole series will be available.
    I am having a break for a minute, and watching Dark Hearts, which is very good.

    Sky have recently offered a number of one month deals, instead of tying you into a contract, with particular sporting events in mind.

    Okay having read the update on the new cast list and who is playing what I now know what books the story will be based on and therefore will pretty much know where the storyline will end up which means little or no surprises for me.

    Although the fact that so far both series 1 and 2 have mingled characters and subplots from different books quite well I'm not sure how much this can carry on without diluting the impact.

    For example season two had elements from The Gods of Guilt, The Brass Verdict and even The Lincoln Lawyer although the bulk of the story was based around The Fifth Witness.
