One of the German channels makes you pay for random episodes. So you’ll be able to watch episode 3, 9 and 11 in a season but you have to pay for the rest.
Comment on The show I was watching went from "Free" to "Paid" *while I was watching it*

Prime does this a lot where the first season, maybe first 2 are free, but then the rest is paid only. And that’s with a subscription.

If I ever run into that scenario … that would be a great reason to raise the Jolly Roger

The CBS/Paramount app has always had so much tracking in it that it’s blocked by most PiHole like devices and software. Even if you pay for the no ads tier they still won’t play the video if they can’t hit the ad server.

Sometimes Prime Video in Germany also used to only have dubbed versions of tv shows and movies. It was infuriating that I couldn’t watch the original versions. The service was also generally buggy and poorly made. I canceled Prime because it was so bad.

Yes but I was finishing episode 9 of the 2nd season going into 10. Then poof, whole season 2 is $29.99. For a show with a bad rating probably because it’s so niche if you’re not from LA it’s a complete dud.
