Ugh. Amazon streaming is the absolute worst.

But their animation department is killing it. Invincible, vox machina for examples.

They have good shows, but the interface and whole system sucks.

It's the only service that I'd pirate the content even though I'm paying for it because I hate how it works on every device. I also hate how many ads they have mixed in. No, I don't want to buy a subscription to another service, no I don't want to pay $4.99 to rent that movie, no I don't need to see trailers for other shows before every episode.

Its the searching for something and then finding out I have to pay for it, that pisses me off. That needs to not exist on there.

Vox Machina isn't really an amazon show, they're just distributing it. I don't think they had much of a hand in production, it was preplanned and funded by kickstarter. Basically like how Netflix buys rights to shows and then calls them "Netflix originals," it wasn't an actual in-house production like Invincible was.

Pretty sure the Kickstarter only funded like one or two episodes, the rest was entirely Amazon.

It's definitely way more of an Amazon original than, say, Arcane is for Netflix.

But I really don't have issues with either being referred to as such.

I forgot to cancel my prime and re upped for another year. Prime is the five dollar dvd bin at Walmart of steaming services you occasionally find a gem but Jesus there’s so much shit to go thru to get it. Really outside of the boys and boush there’s not much else. Man high castle crashed bad. Mozart in the jungle went sideways fast. Marvelous mrs maisel is infuriating in how such a premise is wasted on midge being so clueless. I could go on. I used to only use prime but as more and more shows got pulled it just the leftover crap I never watched.
