Let's Compare Beebs to its Competitors

Technology was supposed to be our saviour. Yet, in this current era of streaming, it seems to be getting even more difficult.

The issue is fragmentation of content. Acorn TV might own the rights to a handful of your fav shows, while Britbox might have a season or two of another. And there are certain shows that are no where to be found.

These streaming services (plus the likes of HBO, Netflix & Amazon) cherry pick what they want, leaving British TV fans in the unfortunate of needing to pay for multiple passes. That, or miss out completely.

There are so many more shows to list but this article would never end. We haven't even begun to talk about the UK TV series that can be streamed via ITV Hub and Channel 4.

Let's compare to the rest...


British Television on PBS

The Public Broadcasting Service is a surprisingly good source for British television series, having secured the right to popular series like Downtown Abbey and Call the Midwife. The nonprofit organisation is a free service for those in the United States so it's a great way to see British content without needing to fork out any money to do so.

Available to stream: Prime Suspect, Call the Midwife, Downton Abbey, Poldark, All Creatures Great and Small


British Television on Netflix in the USA

An interesting mix of British TV content can be found on Netflix. Though the service is on the expensive end ($8.99 for the basic plan), the high-end content available on the platform does make it tempting.

In 2021, Netflix and BBC collaborate for a British crime drama The Serpent. The eight-part series is based on the crimes of a serial killer who murdered young tourists in South East Asia.

Available to stream: Broadchurch, Black Mirror, The Great British Baking Show, The Crown, Peaky Blinders
