Far too often, cinematic masterpieces get overlooked –– and it’s us cinema lovers who suffer the loss.

Whatever the reason, the result is that the streaming landscape is overflowing with hidden treasures that deserve to be unearthed, enjoyed, and duly celebrated. From political thrillers to quirky romances and everything in between, we’ve rounded up the top 100 underrated movies that are on their way to becoming cult classics.

50 Best Movies On Netflix You Haven’t Yet Seen

It is very easy to become lost in Netflix land and believe you've already seen everything worth watching. Rest assured, there is very little chance you have. For the second time we have curated a list of the best movie suggestions on Netflix: the best highly-rated, little-known titles available to stream. This is a list we update almost every week to adjust for new arrivals and expired titles. agoodmovietowatch is your gateway to on-demand streaming services, but instead of recommending the same movies to you you've been hearing about for the past 20 years, we focus on the good ones that were overlooked.

To do this, we only recommend movies that have received a high rating from viewers combined with a high score from critics.

50 Best Movies That Amazon Prime Has but Netflix Doesn’t

Accumulating subscriptions doesn't make you immune to not knowing to watch, it might even make it more frustrating when you don't find where to watch that great movie you've heard about. To get away from all that, you can cross match our Netflix, Amazon Prime, or Hulu databases -- and to make things easier we will be running a series of lists with the best movies on each that the other ones don't have.

Our purpose at agoodmovietowatch is to reference movies you haven’t yet seen, that you can watch immediately and love.

The 30 Best Miniseries on Netflix Right Now

Movies are too short for some, shows too long for others. Enter middle-ground solution: miniseries. Now that the "movies are dying" articles are the only thing that's actually dying, and the "it's the golden age of TV" ones have stopped being news (why does one being in a golden age mean the other is failing?), there is a newcomer to the scene. Perfected by networks like the BBC in the past, the form is attracting growing attention from Netflix and similar platforms. 4 to 8 episodes, one season, done. Creators have more time to express their ideas, but not too long to have to recycle them. Viewers can be exposed to 7 different stories instead of 7 different seasons of Homeland (they made 4 after he died, four). It's the perfect medium, and provided Netflix and the BBC keep coming out with good ones like the 5 below, it will be the future.

New: Cord-cutting guides

15 Cheapest Live TV Streaming Services for Cord-cutting

The cheapest live TV services for cord-cutting are the free ones: Pluto TV and Local Now. There are paid ones that cost very little, like Philo, Frndly TV, and Sling (especially the individual Blue or Orange plans).

Below, here are the best cheap offerings so that you can cut the cord and make the biggest savings.

<----end of introduction---->

What is the cheapest live TV streaming service for sports channels?

The most affordable streaming service for sports viewing is Sling TV. Out of its two available plans, Sling Orange has the most coverage since it carries ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN3, but Sling Blue is also a formidable option as it carries NFL Network and FS1. Each costs $40/month (or $20 on your first month) and only $55 together as Sling Orange + Blue. These channels may be enough for casual sports fans, but if you're looking for more, you can always pay an extra $11/month for the sports bundle and add up to 11 more sports channels in your lineup, and $29/month if you want dedicated NBA coverage.

What is the cheapest live TV streaming service for news channels?

For news, Sling still offers a pretty good deal with the $40 Blue, which has MSNBC, CNN, Bloomberg Television, and Fox News. You can also pay an extra $6 for the news bundle, which gives you access to nine more channels including BBC World News and CNBC. But if you're looking for an even cheaper option, Philo should do. For $25/month, it gives you access to BBC America, BBC World News, and Cheddar News.

What is the cheapest live TV streaming service with local channels?

While YouTube TV and DirecTV Stream have great offers in this regard, the cheapest live TV streamer with local channels is Paramount+, which offers CBS affiliate channels in most markets for only $9.99. If you want more information on accessing local channels on live TV, we wrote a dedicated article on the topic.

What is the cheapest Youtube TV Alternative?

Again, YouTube TV is a great and comprehensive option for cord-cutters, but with the monthly price now at $73, it's understandable to look at alternatives. The cheapest YouTube TV alternatives are Sling TV ($40), Philo ($25), and Frndly TV ($6).

Which live TV streaming services are completely free?

Plenty of live TV streaming services are completely, wholly, and no-strings-attached free. The most popular three are Tubi, PlutoTV, and Xumo TV.

50 Best Streaming Services With Free Trials

After Netflix cancelled their free trial, many popular services followed suit.

However, there are still some services left that offer to subscribe for free. The period of free trial ranges from 7 days to 30 days in some cases.

In this list, we've looked for every single streaming service out there that still offers a free trial, and put them all in one place. This is the ultimate guide for free trials in streaming.

There are live TV services as well as on-demand platforms. It's all in here. Happy cord-cutting.

12 Best Services to Watch ESPN live Without Cable

Get the latest highlights across every major sport, from hockey, football, basketball and baseball to UFC and more. If you never want to miss a score, here are some of the best deals to get ESPN without cable.

You can watch ESPN without cable with a free trial on YouTube TV, Hulu with Live TV, and Fubo, or with a subscription on Vidgo, DirecTV Stream, and Sling Orange + Blue.

Live ESPN is not available on ESPN+, the platform's own streaming platform. To watch live gams from ESPN, you have to subscribe to one of the cord-cutting services below.

Below, we list all of them in detail. We made this ranking based on each service's value: how many other channels each dollar of subscription will get you.

50 Best Streaming Bundles in 2024

Bundles sure look like the future of streaming and cord-cutting, and that trend is set to continue its upward trajectory in 2024. The abundance of streaming apps makes us spend more and makes it harder for us to keep track of all our expenses, and bundles are a great answer to both these problems.

The most popular streaming bundles are Sling Orange + Blue, Philo (live TV + on-demand content), Disney+ (bundled with Hulu and ESPN+), Paramount+ (CBS live TV + on-demande content), Hulu with Live TV (live TV + on-demand), and a few others.

With this guide, we hope to create the most comprehensive list of bundle deals. As more get announced with streaming services, we will keep adding them.

We've also made sure to indicate which bundles offer a free trial (twice the deal!), and which are available on which device.

<----end of introduction---->

Is getting a streaming bundle cheaper than getting a standalone service?

Bundles tend to be cheaper but whether one of them makes sense for you will depend on the content you like to watch, as well as the content you're comfortable paying for. For example, the Sling Orange + Blue is a good deal that is $25 cheaper than if you got Sling Orange and Sling Blue separately. But, if you pay for Sling Blue, you are also subsidising Fox News, which is part of the lineup. This might be OK for some, but for others who don't watch Fox News and don't want to subsidise it, getting Sling Orange over the bundle is a cheaper (and more suitable) deal.

Is it possible to get a streaming bundle that includes Netflix?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to subscribe to Netflix through a bundle in the US.

Are there any streaming bundles for students?

Spotify offers students a subscription that also includes Hulu and Showtime for $4.99/month here, with a 30 day free trial.

Are bundles the best way to stream cheaply?

Bundles can lower the cost of subscribing to many subscriptions at once, but the cheapest way to stream is obviously to stream for free. We've counted over 30 free streaming services available in the US.
