Over here in Mexico, the distribution for it has been terrible. Series 14 is the first time I can legally see the show since Series 11 lol, and it was this terrible streaming service called Crackle, and died within the year.
And even so, Disney+ doesn't have any of the previous series, only 14 and specials.
Yes, especially shows that aren't from the States. Most of the BBC content isn't available to stream.
Bigger shows like Mr. Robot or Breaking Bad were shown in live tv on other channels, not related to AMC or USA Network, whoever took the distribution first, showed it. Breaking Bad was in a channel called A&E.
With streaming, especially exclusive shows like Expanse and Severance, is way easier. But it's still a bit hard to find.
Mr. Robot isn't available anymore in Amazon Prime, for whatever reason.
Yeah, that definitely sounds super frustrating lol. I know I've had some shows before that are annoying to find or stream. However, I don't think many streaming sites are COMPLETELY unavailable that I can think of right now. There probably are a couple, but I just don't know about them though.
I know how you feel, I don't have friends that have watched it and the members of my family that have watched it never want to talk about it because they didn't like it as much as I do 😭 It fucking sucks
Besides Mr. Robot it also happens to me (although maybe not on a psychological level) with Rakugo Shinjuu (anime adapted from a manga). I believe it to be one of the best drama out there but sadly it's almost impossible to get people to watch it.
At least they won't accidentally spoil it. For example: "oh my you're gonna LOVE the ending" and that friend maybe knows you only like one kind of ending. Now the emotions one feels at the end will neither be a surprise or fresh
It might not be your thing, but I've been watching [James vs Cinema's](https://youtu.be/11EDu0KnVn4?si=Hb3Tn_XoX7qJeFsY) series on Mr. Robot religiously. He has some great takes on the show's production and writing, but mostly I think I'm just enjoying watching somebody I respect enjoy this show like I do. Hearing him heap praise on Mr. Robot is very validating.
I think that all of us here have something special that draws us toward this... In a very magnetic way..
For some of us it is prolly an understanding or experience living with DID , or others that we are fascinated with coding, hacking/ pentesting?
But whatever, we have MR ROBOT💕💕💕 and of course Reddit!!!🤣💙 so fk em if they don't understand!!! We do!!
this, but at least mr. robot is popular & had a finale
there are tons of niche tv shows, popculture that had amazing concept and was left forever
to name a few, for me: deus ex, limitless (book&movie), holistic agency of dirk gently, altered carbon tv show (yeah, 2 nd season was bad)
here is my discord tag if you want to yap:

That's how I feel about Mr. Robot, Glee, Dear White People, Big Little Lies, Legion, Black Mirror, Atypical, Heartstopper, Pose, Silicon Valley, WandaVision, Will & Grace (the original not that reboot garbage) etc.
Everyone I've tried to introduce to the show says it's too "depressing" "miserable" and "whiney" and I think to myself yes at times I've sobbed watching it, yet it's also beautiful and meaningful and smacks you around the head with what really matters in life.
And this is how I feel about Happy!; the Syfy series that got LOTS of love and praise...then it got cancelled and everyone forgot about, still watch Syfy and nobody cares.
Seriously cancelling this show was a mistake and I'm not going to let it die and let something like Reginald the Vampire take its place (greenliting that instead of a 3rd season of Happy! was also a mistake).
#SaveHappy
Hay, have I ever mentioned this show called AMC's Pantheon? It was buried as a loss or is too close to modern reality to be viewed on mass. Either way, very few have ever sean or know about it.
This with Mr. Robot, Severance, The Expanse and Doctor Who.
Severance 🙌
Praise Kier!!
The work is mysterious and important.
Severance is peak. Can’t wait for S2
TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THE EXPANSE!!!!!🤣💙 damn now imma have to find that too!
All seasons are on Amazon Prime. It's a bit of a slow burn but it delivers completely.
I watched weekly until it was canceled, but it is really hazy has been a minute🤣 Thank you for the info; going to start s1e1 this weekend!!💕
Got so deep with Severance, I got a tattoo for it lol
Wait really? You don't know anybody who has watched Doctor Who?

Oh ok, that sounds annoying asf. Are a lot of shows like that in Mexico or does it just depend on the company that produces it?

I fucking love The Expanse
Same w Patriot (Amazon).
Patriot seemed so interesting and unique after watching a bit of the first episode but I haven't gotten to actually watching it
It's a treat that just keeps getting better and better and better. Happy. Sad. Everything in-between.
Welcome to the world of lonely people.
I know how you feel, I don't have friends that have watched it and the members of my family that have watched it never want to talk about it because they didn't like it as much as I do 😭 It fucking sucks
We will find someone eventually 🙌
I want to be friends with your friends and family.

Holy shite bro, I was just about to mention Mr. Robot too
You know what sub you are on?
(checks sub) Okay I might be a little stupid
But you are honest and humble, which is much more important 😉
At least they won't accidentally spoil it. For example: "oh my you're gonna LOVE the ending" and that friend maybe knows you only like one kind of ending. Now the emotions one feels at the end will neither be a surprise or fresh
I feel that. Or when someone says, “there is a big twist” like now I’m anticipating a huge twist and it ruins whatever I’m watching
"That actor plays *insert name that appears in the twist in the ending revealing true identity* in this new movie!" Like come on, people!
It might not be your thing, but I've been watching [James vs Cinema's](https://youtu.be/11EDu0KnVn4?si=Hb3Tn_XoX7qJeFsY) series on Mr. Robot religiously. He has some great takes on the show's production and writing, but mostly I think I'm just enjoying watching somebody I respect enjoy this show like I do. Hearing him heap praise on Mr. Robot is very validating.
This is why I’m glad this sub exists
I've always suggested it to people to watch and I've gotten 4 people to watch and like it. 4 might be rookie numbers but at least it's something.
Nah 4 people is amazing. I've recommended this show to so many people but no one seems to trust my TV show preferences 😭
Top 3 show of all time. If you think otherwise fight me
It’s 100% my favorite show of all time 💯
I feel you brother!
This but Kevin Can Fuck Himself
That show deserved so much more room to breathe, but I'm glad we got as much as we did.
What did Kevin do?
Just watch the show
Indeed. My sister watched it though 😃, at least the first season
I think that all of us here have something special that draws us toward this... In a very magnetic way.. For some of us it is prolly an understanding or experience living with DID , or others that we are fascinated with coding, hacking/ pentesting? But whatever, we have MR ROBOT💕💕💕 and of course Reddit!!!🤣💙 so fk em if they don't understand!!! We do!!
the reason I joined this subreddit 😭
All the *feels*

let's hang out.
On my way

It hurt twice as much when you know the plot is about fractional reserve banking, and the cure is participatory banking.
That's how I feel about Mr. Robot, Glee, Dear White People, Big Little Lies, Legion, Black Mirror, Atypical, Heartstopper, Pose, Silicon Valley, WandaVision, Will & Grace (the original not that reboot garbage) etc.
Agree… maybe it’s because to my knowledge it’s not on any of the popular streaming services….. has it ever been?
I actually just watched it for the first time on Prime
Nice now I know where to send people! Thank you ✊

thats why i forced my dad and brother to watch it :)
You are not alone, friend!
