I still have the full Black Lightning S1 but only the first 9 episodes of Supergirl S4 and Arrow S7 that aired before the licensing lockout. So unless this changes, episodes 10+ will never be included.

My Warner Bros movies like The Dark Knight are still there. Perhaps this only affects television shows.

It's only TV and it seems like episodes you previously purchased are still in your library.

More specifically, nothing gets removed from your Library. If you bought a Season Pass, you might have paid for upcoming episodes that you might never get. But anything that was in your Library is still there.

They didn't take away anything you already own, but they're not putting up new stuff, and you can't buy anything.

I bought Supergirl Season 4 season pass, and I have the episodes up through 9 in my library, but not the two that have aired since the dispute started. Presumably, once the dispute is settled, the new episodes will all be added.

It’ll probably be settled at some point, but shit like this puts a stain on Amazon’s service and the whole digital marketplace. It’s one thing to not sell Disney movies on release date, but this is denying availability of a purchased product as promised.

Yeah, Season Passes should be exempt from any of this price haggling. WB wants to pull their shows? OK, but they still have to provide episodes from any seasons a season pass was sold on. WB can prevent those new episodes from being sold separately, but both Amazon and WB agreed to provide a full season for a set price.

Amazon is getting into the stand up game...

Jim Gaffigan Center Stage For Amazon Prime’s First Stand-Up Comedy Special
by Greg Evans January 24, 2019 10:00am

Amazon Prime Video is about to stroll onto the Netflix-dominated stand-up comedy turf with its first such special: Comic Jim Gaffigan’s Quality Time will premiere later this year, Amazon announced today.

The stand-up special will be Gaffigan’s seventh (his first five were for Netflix, and his sixth, last year’s Noble Ape, premiered via various on-demand sites).

“I am so honored to be Amazon’s first original stand up special,” said Gaffigan. “This is going to be exciting.”

A four-time Grammy nominee for his comedy albums, Gaffigan will record his Quality Time show live at the State Theatre in Minneapolis on March 9. The special will be directed by wife and collaborator Jeannie Gaffigan, and executive produced by Brian Volk-Weiss & Cisco Henson (of Comedy Dynamics) with Alex Murray (Brillstein Entertainment Partners). Quality Time is distributed and produced by Comedy Dynamics.

Amazon Prime members will be able to stream the special exclusively via the Prime Video app for TVs, connected devices including Fire TV, mobile devices and online. Quality Time will be a global release and available on the Prime Video website in more than 200 countries and territories.

Gaffigan also is slated for a co-starring role in Amazon Studios’ upcoming film Troop Zero, along with Viola Davis and Allison Janney.

Quality Time will mark Amazon’s entry into the stand-up comedy terrain most closely associated with Netflix. Netflix has boasted a roster of stand-up comics including Ellen DeGeneres, Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle and Jerry Seinfeld.
https://deadline.com/2019/01/jim-gaf...al-1202540877/

Looking forward to this. Jim Gaffigan is great.

A show that truly had six seasons and a movie.
I loved this show when it was on. A show about nothing.

Prime Video Canada has added all seasons of Desperate Housewives, Lost, Happy Endings, Private Practice and Uggly Betty. And they added the rest of the Baywatch seasons up to S9.

Supergirl still only showing the new one from last week.

Now that’s awesome! I’ll have to check to see how the quality is. I have a couple of old dvds that look like they were copied from VHS.

Re: The Amazon Prime Streaming Thread

It's been years and I still have no idea how to find "Prime" content that's added. Obviously their own shows are front and center, but if I wanted to find everything that was added last month, how do you do that? I feel like they deliberately make the search function obtuse to promote the paid content.

For instance, I just happened to notice the old 80s cartoon DinoSaucers was available.

I don't know how to do it on Amazon's site, but JustWatch lists daily what's been added to Prime:

^Yeah, Prime Video's user interface is horrible.

If you do a Google search for "new on prime video" you'll find that there are several websites that post lists of everything added to Prime each month. Some will also list the titles that are leaving.

Here's one:

Towards the end of every month I search for 'Coming to Amazon Month Year', and same for Hulu & Netflix.
