Streaming Wars episodes

  • The Witcher’s wicked return to Netflix
    In this episode of Streaming Wars, Geralt of Rivia is back in Netflix’s epic fantasy horror drama and better than ever with a more stripped-down pace and scope.

    The one downside? The best character of the show, Yennefer, takes a bit of a backseat. But it’s still one of the best fantasy shows out there.

  • Succession on Crave+ is a delightfully soapy corporate drama with real-world echoes
    Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm may have found his new favourite show in corporate family drama Succession, now available on Crave+.

    Delightfully slick and darkly comic, this boardroom version of Game Of Thrones hits all the right notes of HBO high-brow goodness and guilty pleasure at the same time.

    Have you been glued to Succession this whole time? Brag about it, hit up Colin on Twitter at @ColinHantsCo or send him an email at [email protected]

  • The Harder They Fall is a middling western with a spectacular cast
    A powerful, all-Black cast, featuring Idris Elba and Regina King is one reason to watch Netflix’s The Harder They Fall, a new, modern take on the spaghetti western.

    But, despite its glorious performances and stunning visuals, there’s not much else to sick your teeth into in this otherwise hollow Tarantino-esque revenge romp.

    What’s your favourite western movie? Send suggestions to Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm @ColinHantsCo on Twitter or via email at [email protected]

  • Netflix’s Red Notice is a crime against action movies
    Red Notice … *sigh* Well, it’s not great, according to Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm.

    Despite the veneer of a high budget action-adventure movie, there’s not much to like with this Netflix original. Jokes that fall flat, a mishmash of jarring scene changes and perhaps its greatest sin, just being really boring, Red Notice misses the mark in many ways.

    Have a suggestion for Colin to get the Red Notice taste out of his mouth?

  • Roku’s latest streaming stick keeps it simple
    Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm had a chance to check out Roku’s latest streaming device the Streaming Stick 4K, and he was a fan of the clean, easy-to-use interface but was a bit bummed out by an odd software glitch.

    What’s your favourite streaming device? Let Colin know on Twitter at @ColinHantsCo or send him an email at [email protected]

  • Selma Blair stuns in documentary
    There was one shining light in the Discovery+ library, according to Streaming Wars host Colin Chisholm;

    Introducing, Selma Blair, a documentary about the actress’s life is a heart-breaking, moving look at her life and struggles with multiple sclerosis. It might be worth the Discovery+ free trial.

    Have another recommendation for Colin to check out? Reach him on Twitter at @ColinHantsCo or by email at [email protected]

  • Discovery+ is a lot of content for a very particular audience
    Streaming Wars hosting Colin Chisholm has been trying out the latest streaming service to launch in Canada, Discovery+, and so far, let’s just say it’s not his cup of tea.

    With a heavy focus on reality programming of questionable quality, the service leaves a lot to be desired — unless you’re really into home reno shows.

    But of course, there’s a lot on Discovery+ and maybe he missed something worth checking out.
