20 Streaming Services That Aren't Netflix, Hulu, Or Amazon Prime 6/29/2017 20 Streaming Services That Aren’t Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime Get Tickets For Gru's Most Despicable Movie Yet! Get Tickets PRESENTED BY TRENDING 16,400 VIEWS TVANDMOVIES 20 Streaming Services That Aren’t Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime From art-house movies to British TV to anime and Bollywood, here is a sampling of the expansive world of (legal) online streaming. Posted on June 29, 2017, at 7:37 a.m. Adam B. Vary BuzzFeed News Reporter Adam B. Vary / BuzzFeed News; Joe Belanger / Alamy Stock Photo Share Share https://www.buzzfeed.com/adambvary/streaming-services-you-probably-didnt-know-existed?utm_term=.jkrX2pMX8#.iwLJamOJ9 1/15 6/29/2017 20 Streaming Services That Aren’t Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime It's been 10 years since Netflix first opened our eyes to the world of streaming movies and TV shows directly to our computers. A year later, Hulu and Amazon Prime Video officially launched similar services. Soon enough, all three also began streaming original content, which has gone on to win Emmys and Oscars and lead crucial national conversations about teen suicide, gender identity, women's rights, and abandoning best friends in the Upside Down. In less than a decade, Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video have become so central to popular culture that, for many, they've replaced broadcast TV networks as the new Big Three — the core trinity of content delivery for millions of cord-cutting viewers. The world of digital streaming, however, expands far beyond the scope of these three services. Just about every broadcast and cable network also has its own streaming service (never to be outdone, HBO has two), and the major sports leagues all have their own as well. This year, CBS even began making premium original shows — The Good Wife spinoff The Good Fight, and the first Star Trek TV show in 12 years, Star Trek: Discovery — for its subscription-only service, CBS All Access. And some outlets, like YouTube, PlayStation Vue, Sling, and Hulu, have started offering streams of live TV and à la carte access to popular basic cable networks. All of that would provide enough #content — delivered through a sprawling technological ecosystem of tablet apps, set-top boxes, smart TVs, and USB sticks — for several lifetimes. And yet, specialized streaming services have been proliferating like cinematic universes and NBC’s Chicago shows. Tucked into just about every corner of the mainstream internet, these services offer platforms for all kinds of feature films, TV shows, and short-form series one could imagine — and many more one could not. There are services for military veterans, workout routines, and science and nature documentaries, to name a few. There have never been more options for streaming — and making sense of where to do that has never been more overwhelming. Universal search sites like Yidio and GoWatchIt don't cover many of these services. Confusing things further, Amazon has started offering several of these streaming services separately from their respective discrete apps via its Prime Video Channels option. To help make sense of it all, here is a small sampling of services available within the current streaming landscape, along with how much they cost and what devices you need to watch them. (Note: While some of these services are available outside of the US, all viewing and pricing options listed here are for their US versions only.) FOR FREE …so long as you're cool with ads running during your movie or TV show. 1. Crackle https://www.buzzfeed.com/adambvary/streaming-services-you-probably-didnt-know-existed?utm_term=.jkrX2pMX8#.iwLJamOJ9 2/15 6/29/2017 20 Streaming Services That Aren’t Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime Crackle What is it? While just about every TV network has its own streaming portal, very few movie studios have followed suit, preferring instead to use established ones like Netflix, and VOD options like Vudu. Sony is the rare exception, launching this free, ad-supported movies and TV service in 2007 that leans heavily on male-skewing content. What’s on it? Of the roughly 200 viewing options, there's a rotating selection of TV shows, including all episodes of recent (i.e., canceled) shows like Last Resort and The Player, as well as selected seasons of classics like Seinfeld and All in the Family. There is also a limited range of classic and contemporary movies from sci-fi (2011’s Attack the Block) to comedy (1980’s Stir Crazy) to thrillers (1993’s In the Line of Fire) and prestige dramas (2004’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind). Crackle also includes a growing assortment of original series, including Snatch with Rupert Grint, and StartUp with Adam Brody and Martin Freeman, and original films, like Joe Dirt 2: Beautiful Loser with David Spade and Christopher Walken. How much is it? Free with ads How can I watch it? Desktop, iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Apple TV, Roku, Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV, PS4, PS3, PS Vita, PlayStation TV, Xbox One, Xbox 360, smart TVs (Samsung, Sony, LG, Vizio), Sprint TV (for an added fee), T-Mobile TV (for an added fee) Where can I watch it? Including the US, Crackle is available in 21 countries. 2. Tubi TV https://www.buzzfeed.com/adambvary/streaming-services-you-probably-didnt-know-existed?utm_term=.jkrX2pMX8#.iwLJamOJ9 3/15 6/29/2017 20 Streaming Services That Aren’t Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime Tubi TV What is it? Tubi TV boasts that it offers "thousands" of ad-supported movies and TV shows not available on subscription-based services like Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon. The depth of its options draws from partnerships with studios such as Paramount, MGM, Lionsgate, and the Weinstein Company, and TV networks like Starz, Sky, and ITV. https://www.buzzfeed.com/adambvary/streaming-services-you-probably-didnt-know-existed?utm_term=.jkrX2pMX8#.iwLJamOJ9 4/15 6/29/2017 20 Streaming Services That Aren’t Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime What’s on it? A crap-ton of options: Over 5,000 movies and 1,000 TV series rotate through the site every month, pulling from an astonishing library of more than 50,000 licensed movie titles and over 25,000 total TV episodes. The options really run the gamut, from prestige films like Gladiator, Eve's Bayou, and My Week With Marilyn to long-in-the-tooth favorites like Overboard and Teen Wolf. It even includes “wait, that was a movie?” options like the 2013 caper Life of Crime with Jennifer Aniston and the 2009 horror spoof Stan Helsing. (There's also a section named Not On Netflix.) Without the participation of most major US networks, the TV options are more rarefied, emphasizing British options like Spaced and the original versions of Queer as Folk and Shameless, as well as canceled American series like Running Wilde (with Will Arnett and Keri Russell). How much is it? Free with ads How can I watch it? Desktop, iOS, Android, Apple TV, Roku, Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV, Xbox One, Xbox 360, smart TVs (Samsung) Where can I watch it? US and Canada 3. Shout Factory TV https://www.buzzfeed.com/adambvary/streaming-services-you-probably-didnt-know-existed?utm_term=.jkrX2pMX8#.iwLJamOJ9 5/15 6/29/2017 20 Streaming Services That Aren’t Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime Shout TV What is it? This is an offshoot of the DVD and Blu-ray distribution company of the same name. It offers ad-supported access to cult favorites, with a selection that strongly evokes the bygone experience of browsing through the aisles of an independent video rental store. What’s on it? There are roughly 350 movies and dozens of TV series, including multiple episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000, Elvira's Movies Macabre, and the selected works of schlockmeister Roger Corman. Serious dramas like John Cassavetes' A Woman Under the Influence and the selected works of gonzo auteur Werner Herzog keep the service classy in an off-kilter way. How much is it? Free with ads, and $2.99 for an ad-free version via Amazon Channels How can I watch it? Desktop, iOS, Android, Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire, smart TVs (Samsung) Where can I watch it? The US and Canada, with a UK version launching soon via Amazon Channels. FOR FILM BUFFS A crowded and competitive subset that tout “curated” lists of often obscure titles. 4. Warner Archive https://www.buzzfeed.com/adambvary/streaming-services-you-probably-didnt-know-existed?utm_term=.jkrX2pMX8#.iwLJamOJ9 6/15 6/29/2017 20 Streaming Services That Aren’t Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime Warner Archive What is it? A rare movie studio–based service that focuses on titles within Warner Bros.' vast library of classic (and maybe just old) feature films and TV series. What’s on it? A wealth of 600–700 feature film options dating from the 1920s through the 1990s, including standouts like the 1933 screwball comedy Bombshell, the 1967 thriller Wait Until Dark, and the 1971 Western McCabe and Mrs. Miller. Only serious cineastes, however, would recognize many of the titles here, like the 1958 Paul Newman Western The Left Handed Gun or the 1986 psychological thriller Dream Lover, starring Kristy McNichol. The TV options are more modest, with about two dozen series available in any given month, including the '70s sitcom Eight Is Enough and the '80s primetime soap Falcon Crest. How much is it? $9.99/month or $94.99/year How can I watch it? Desktop, iOS, Android, Apple TV, Roku Where can I watch it? US only 5.

  • A Historical/Critical Analysis of the Tv Series the Fugitive
    A HISTORICAL/CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE TV SERIES THE FUGITIVE THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE By David P. Pierson, B.S. Denton, Texas May, 1993 Pierson, David P., A Historical/Critical Analysis Of The TV Series The Fugitive. Master of Science (Radio/TV/Film), May 1993, 168 pp., bibliography, 70 titles. In many respects, the popular 1960's television series, The Fugitive perfectly captured the swelling disillusionment with authority, alienation, and discontent that soon encompassed American society. This historical/critical study provides a broad overview of the economic, social, and political climate that surrounded the creation of The Fugitive. The primary focus of this study is the analysis of five discursive topics (individualism, marriage, justice & authority, professionalism, science and technology) within selected episodes and to show how they relate to broader cultural debates which occurred at that time. Finally, this study argues that The Fui1gitive is a part of a television adventure subgenre which we may classify as the contemporary "wanderer-hero" narrative and traces its evolution through selected television series from the last three decades.

No More Mr. Nice Angel Abstract Angels have occupied a prominent role in world religions and Western culture for centuries. The existence of multiple supernatural beings with varying degrees of hierarchical standing was a given for the polytheistic cultures that represented the majority of religious expressions in the ancient world. The inclusion of these supernatural beings in the three great monotheistic faiths of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam was significant because these faiths sought in ve ery way to emphasize the supremacy of the one God in contrast to the crowded spiritual field of polytheistic faiths. Angels could be problematic because they potentially provided a host of supernatural entities competing alongside the one God.

  • My Highway to Heaven Journey with Father Tony Special Bonus Feature by Timothy J
    My Highway to Heaven journey with Father Tony Special bonus feature by Timothy J. Hauprich From September 19, 1984 to June 29, 1989 there was a popular TV show featuring the characters Jonathan Smith and Mark Gordon. Jonathan was an angel portrayed by Michael Landon — who had earlier become famous for his characters on Bonanza and Little House on The Prairie. Mark was an ex-cop portrayed by Victor French. The show was called Highway to Heaven and was not about NASCAR. It had no car chases and did not necessarily showcase beautiful women, but rather focuses on a pair of highway travelers intervening on the lives of ordinary people who were challenged by real life problems. I had no idea that by 1991 I would be the Mark Gordon character balancing Father Tony’s real life portrayal of Jonathan Smith. Two biological brothers could not have shared a bond closer than the one that was forged between the Rev. Anthony Maione and teacher Timothy Hauprich during their years together at It was with memories of this program in mind that I wrote the eulogy that Saratoga Central Catholic High School in Saratoga Springs, NY. Common interests included the follows in letter form to be shared with those who attended a Memorial Service ABCs of athletics, birds and community service. Photo at left was taken by Ann Hauprich when for the Rev. Anthony Maione at St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church in Saratoga her brother Tim and Father Tony coached a SAINTS powerlifting event in the early 1990s. Her camera also caught Tim placing a "Highway To Heaven" call to Tony on the day a chapel was Springs, NY in 2006.

  • Zeisberger KO Neu
    Ingold Zeisberger (Dortmund) ‚God’s Own Country‘ – die himmlischen USA Die US-Serie Touched by an Angel und die Inszenierung amerikanischer Werte In den USA gibt es eine Tradition von religiösen und säkularen Fernseh- programmen, die das weite Feld Religion und Glauben in Szene setzen. Dies liegt auch daran, dass das Fernsehen mittlerweile das Hauptmedium der gesellschaftlichen Sozialisation in den Staaten darstellt und elementar für die Weitergabe von Normen und Werten ist. 1 Shonna Tropf fasst es aufbauend auf William Fore sogar so zusammen: „In many respects televi- sion has become a type of religion. It is where most people go to learn about society’s values and find world views that shape their beliefs.“2 Diese Bedeutung scheint gleichzeitig ein Bedürfnis nach solchen Forma- ten zu etablieren. Manche von ihnen spielen in der alltäglichen Lebenswelt wie 7th Heaven / Eine himmlische Familie (1996–2007) (The WB), viele behandeln jedoch auch phantastische Themen wie Joan of Arcadia / Die himmlische Joan (2003–2005) (CBS) über einen Teenager, der mit Gott kommunizieren kann.
