Chick-fil-A’s new streaming service might not be a game-changer, but at least you’ll have a side of drama with your nuggets!
Shortcut to find where a show or movie is streaming
A friend is raving about a new show you just have to watch. You’re in, you’re excited and then you realize, “Oh, it’s on a streaming service I don’t subscribe to.”
The problem used to be there wasn’t anything to watch. Now, there are too many places to watch shows and movies. Here’s a fast, easy way to find out what’s available where.
There’s a site for that
Actually, there are two: Reelgood and JustWatch.
If you’re looking to find a specific show or movie and where to watch it, either option has you covered. You can browse shows and movies from over 150 services, including heavy hitters like Netflix, Hulu, Max, Disney+ and Prime Video.
Simply search for a show or movie and get your results. You’ll see where you can watch, rent or buy the title you’re looking for.
It gets better
Reelgood will keep track of what you’ve already watched and episodes you still need to catch up on — and let you know when a new season is airing. Love that.
JustWatch recommends new shows and movies based on your previous search history. Create a watchlist of future movies or TV shows to consult when you have that moment of, “OK, what the heck do I watch now?”
You can use the website links or download the respective app versions. Here you go:
