For those of you who don't have Amazon Prime, but do have a Roku box or the app, you can download the FilmRise Channel and they have the first two seasons of the Stack episodes available. There are a couple of 30 second ads to watch, but once you watch those you are good to go.

Thanks! That's funny...I had actually downloaded the FilmRise app on my Roku a couple of weeks ago wondering the same thing, but at the time they didn't have them up. Glad to see they did that and hopefully some will have access who didn't want to shell out for prime.

Interesting news, the only reason why I'm paying for Amazon is for the UM Stack episodes. I hardly utilize the Prime 2 day shipping gimmick.

I chuckled at this way of phrasing things because the 2-day shipping was the originally the only benefit to a Prime membership, the streaming video was added later and Amazon music came even further down the line. I originally joined for the shipping and it's one of the main reasons I keep it. However, I do make full use of the video and music as well.

I've never heard anyone describe the 2-day shipping as a "gimmick".

I would only subscribe to Prime for Unsolved as well (Unsolved is not available in Canada yet, though). Besides, if you spend $35 or more, shipping is free. I don't need anything to arrive in two days.

And yes it is a gimmick. Amazon got rid of Free Super Saver Shipping to get people to pay for Prime. We're now paying for shipping when we used to get it for free. I'd rather wait a couple days than spend money on a shipping fee.

I don't have a Roku lol. I wish someone would upload the Stack episodes, even if its under a secret password-protected playlist on the forbidden site lmao. I'm desperate.

Youre obviously not that desperate. Youre unwilling to shell out a few bucks to watch these episodes that are available on mulitple platforms that dont cost much money. Everyone wants something for nothing.

Yeah, I do want something for nothing. Mostly nothing. In Las Vegas I learned immediately to prioritize value. No chance I'm paying more than something is worth.

When I'm not in Las Vegas I still have a difficult time actually paying for food. In Las Vegas all my food is free, or at least when I eat out. Comps everywhere based on connections. Here in Miami I can't seem to walk into Pizza Hut and have them recognize the buffet is supposed to be comped for me. But I'm working on it.

Anyway, I do have Amazon Prime. But I can't watch these Unsolved Mysteries episodes. I only discovered that a few days ago, when I finally decided to take a look after so much hype here...multiple threads.

A family member is the primary and paying member of Amazon Prime. Apparently she can designate one person to share in the membership. Now that's what I am talking about...comped Amazon Prime. This is a minor price to pay, since I don't pay anything else. Only the paying member is eligible to watch.

In the meantime I do take advantage of that two-day shipping. My current need is cat repellent. I despise cats. I already have a motion sensor sprinkler. Terrific invention if only it would aim at whisker level and not overhead. I just got two ultrasonic repellents on ebay for $15 total utilizing a $10 off coupon. Now I need a citrus spray. That's where Amazon Prime comes in. I'm debating between orange, eucalyptus and citronella. Perhaps a combo.

I do enjoy the incoherent ramblings of a mad man. Does that make me one myself?
