    Looks like the gang, including the production crew, is back together in 2016!

    There is not as big of a gap in quality in Amazon and Netflix in the UK as in the US. I might use Amazon more, actually.

    Most of the complaints about Amazon seem to be over its UI. They've got time to fix that (hopefully).

    Netflix spent all their money on superstar filmmaker Adam Sandler.

    Why would Netflix invest in an aging troublemaker like Jeremy Clarkson. Amazon has the money so they probably don't care about the risk.

    If you are going to get an aging racist better to go for the one who is entertaining and relevant like Clarkson. Netflix opted for Sandler. Ouch.
