So, can one see most series in ENGLISH on Netflix Mexico?

9 bucks a month without a contract sounds good.

We have Amazon prime and many channels on TV due to paying megabucks for the Brazilian channel GLOBO, which I love. With that premium package, we get all the movie channels, like Cinemax, HBO, Golden.

One's not already mentioned that we liked are: Marco Polo; Medici; Tudors; Bosch; Goliath and of course Longmire.
Not sure which are on Prime and which are on Netflix.

BTW VPN in Mexico no longer works on Netflix. Tried two and get the message from Netflix, You are using a third party blocker and this content cannot be displayed, or something to that effect.

Ok maybe slightly off colour humor but I think we need to get everyone on board with the plan and hunker down for what is coming. I worry about what is coming for the US.

But as they say laughter is the best medicine, so my pick, probably not on NF though, one of my all time favs, even has an intermission break its so long. Just a great movie.

Thanks so much. Internet is lousy and slow as molasses here in La Bocana but I am going to mention this to Les. I would like to give it a whirl. Thanks for the response.

Deadwood


About five years ago, a friend downloaded all of the "Deadwood" series, and sent them along with me when I made a Baja run.

I got hooked on the story line and characters, but if you find this series, don't watch the last episode. It was like the producers fired all the writers and decided they would wind up the series as fast as possible.

It would have been better to forever wonder what happened than to destroy all the base they had built!




If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

A Place to call Home on Acorn is a multiyear serial set in Australia in the early 50's. Very good writing and acting with lots of twists and turns.

If you like narco type shows I recommend El Padrino del Mal, 78
episodes about the crazed Pablo Escabar which was made for Coumbian TV available free through Amazon Prime.

Could never get into 24. Timing was bad for me. Might have to go back and try again.

I get that when using YouTube TV. If you keep changing locations, you'll find one that works. I've had better luck with Nord than Express VPN. But you can definitely get both to work.

YouTube TV has a second level of location detection for viewing local channels (ABC, NBC, etc.). For that it goes beyond just your IP address, it looks at your Geolocation in your browser. If you do some research, you can figure out how to change that as well.
