In a recent development, Amazon has announced it’s making over 100
Prime Video original series and movies available on Freevee, its free
streaming service. A natural part of the lifespan for
exclusive video content these days: In April, HBO and Warner Brothers made a bunch of their shows available for free on Roku, some of which originally aired on TV.
On this note, the full list of Prime original content expanding to Freevee isn’t available yet, but titles will include The Summer I Turned Pretty, The Wheel of Time, Late Night, Troop Zero and Reacher.
The 100-plus titles won’t all arrive on Freevee at once, as Amazon reports that
new series and movies will become available throughout the
year.
It appears that Amazon is dedicated to using Freevee to capture the free-streaming market. Last year, it rebranded IMDB TV into Freevee
in a move it said reflected the streaming service’s free access โ other
names reportedly in consideration included “Zon” and “Free TV.” Ads are
likely a small inconvenience for many people when Amazon Prime
starts at $14.99 a month or $139 a year for individuals. You can access
Freevee through Amazon and its Fire TV stick or as an independent app
on iOS, Android, Xbox, most smart TVs and other systems.
Freevee already produces a range of original content, like Americaโs Test Kitchen: The Next Generation and Judy Justice. The streamer also offers titles outside the Amazon production family, including Schitt’s Creek, John Wick and Bones.
