What are some good Inexpensive TV and movies available for those on a budget?

Hoping for good stories with kindness, love and humour in them.

I'm unsure about the availability, mostly available on Netflix I guess: The Good Place, Dash and Lily, Atypical. Do you enjoy anime movies? Also disney movies? They are so full of kindness and hearty emotions, I think hehe!

Disney movies used to be my go-to when I'm not feeling well! It's been a while since I've been able to take time off though, even if I'm not well, but maybe it time to give myself a break!!!

I don't have Netflix, but maybe YouTube has something? I hear there's something called Escontada or something I haven't seen yet, is that Disney?

And I liked Nausicaa and other movies from that creator like Howl's Moving Castle and Spirited Away, and even Princess Mononoke even it kinda freaks me out.

Oh noes, I hope you can take some time off and hope you feel better. 

Disney movies definitely scream *comfort* and are the best hehe!🥰

Oh yes, YouTube might have something worthwhile. I'm yet to watch Nausicaa, I'll check it out, it's a tearjerker?😮

Thank you very much.

Nausicaa is totally a tear-jerker.

I ended up renting it and was flat weeping multiple times...it was horrifying.

@Comphi

I can't afford Netflix right now. But after searching for the preview of Silent Sea on YouTube, a whole free episode of 'Blue Eye samurai' came up...have you see it? So thanks for answering; I now found something free to watch because of it!

I've seen it once before, but binged it and am thinking maybe it's different if someone takes their time to watch it. But maybe I'll check it out again, thanks!

Hey branch! Yes I totally understand; I think a lot of people do like that. I'm a little worried because that kind of show is triggering for me, like with horses and stuff, but maybe I'll try an episode or two actually, thanks! Or just see if it's even on YouTube.

@communicativePond1728 I personally watch cartoons on Disney + when I feel down since it isn't so much like real life drama which triggers me more so if youre also watching cartoons I recommend The owl house, Amphibia but if your looking for shows more realistic then look up on Netflix there are some good ones as I said I don't watch them since they trigger me more.

@Chixxa

Darn; I don't have Disney+ or Netflix. :( And I'm on a very tight budget...and can be quite self destructive when too uncomfortable with being alone, which I am these days, so I will end up binge watching with streaming services like that instead of enjoying shows moderately. I am on a free YouTube Premium trial for a month...do you know of any good shows on that?

communicativePond1728 OP November 24th, 2023

I found some free things on YouTube Premium...a season of something called 'A Discovery of Witches'...I dunno haven't heard of it. Looks like a drama about witches and vampires with a dark academia vibe.

Also there's a free episode of an animated show called 'Blue Eye Samurai', but I have no idea what it's about either, and some interesting short videos by a channel called 'vewn'.


User Profile: communicativePond1728
communicativePond1728 OP November 25th, 2023

*an episode


Looks like the free season is on AMC...just checking it out to see what's up.

User Profile: communicativePond1728
communicativePond1728 OP November 25th, 2023

yes, AMC+ has a trial week free for people on a budget and I recommend 'totally completely fine' and the one with the free episode on YouTube with the witches I mentioned earlier. Oh, for people without premium or the free premium trial, it is without add.
