I really want to see this series, but I don’t have Amazon. I already have plenty of channels on Directv and Netflix. That’s all I need is another service that I rarely watch. So am I SOL or is there a work around to see this? ---

I’m not sure if mentioning this violates SDMB rules, but you could use a torrent program and search for the episodes. ---

I don’t think there is a legal workaround for new episodes. I suspect they’ll come out on DVD at some point. Maybe you can get them through the Netflix DVD service. That’d show 'em! ---

I believe you can sign up for a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime. If so, that should be plenty of time to watch the two seasons. ---

That’d show 'em! I don’t think so. I’ve been checking, because I want to watch this and The Grand Tour, which is Amazon’s replacement for Top Gear. As far as I can tell, Amazon programs are not available on DVD. But I’d be happy to be proven wrong. ---

Check out the Amazon website to get the details. Be sure to turn it off before the trial period ends–if you really can’t afford it. (I’ve had Amazon Prime for years–for the free 2-day shipping. Video streamins is only one of the other benefits.) ---

Borrow a friend’s Amazon Prime account. ---

Or swap with someone; borrow their Amazon Prime account in exchange for letting them use your Netflix account. ---

I’ll piggyback because I couldn’t find a clear answer from Google or Amazon’s help: You can of course give someone your login info. But you can also share your Prime benefits with family members, so multiple people can access _their own account_ and get free 2 day shipping. Is there any way to share the video portion or can only the primary account access this? I just finished S2 yesterday. It got weird but better, I think. ---

I’m fairly certain Amazon will not be putting their biggest hit original show on Netflix anytime soon. Are the episodes not available for individual purchase?
