Streaming Finds: Tracking down sci fi and fantasy shows of interest available on the streaming services.
The free live-streaming service Pluto TV has added the channel Stories by AMC (Channel 140) which will run original series from that network. Among the shows that will be available on the channel are past seasons of The Walking Dead and Fear the Walking Dead. In addition, all three seasons of the post-apocalyptic martial arts drama Into the Badlands and all four seasons of the supernatural romp Preacher will be streaming on that channel. Non-genre entries such as Ride with Norman Reedus, Halt and Catch Fire, and TURN: Washington’s Spies will be available for streaming along with Kevin Smith’s Comic Book Men. Pluto TV is also adding Slightly Off By IFC (Channel 422) which will have all three seasons of Stan Against Evil.
Pluto TV is a free live-streaming service with multiple channels that run television shows, movies, sports, news, and more. It is ad-supported and runs about the standard amount of ads for this type of service. It was purchased by Viacom last year, so it also runs archives from channels that company owns such as MTV, VH1, Spike, Nickelodeon, and more. It currently has a channel dedicated to classic Doctor Who (Channel 77) that runs serials from the adventures of the first seven doctors (more on that at this link). Other channels of interest to genre fans would include 54-Action Movies, 66-Cult Films, and 59-Horror 24/7 which run sci fi, fantasy, and horror movies. There is also Channel 264 which runs episodes of MST3k and Channel 265 which runs Rifftrax (similar to MST3K and with some of the same creative team). Also, Channels 322 and 323 offer a fair selection of Anime. Surprisingly, there is not a dedicated sci fi channel, but maybe we will get that at some point. You can watch at Pluto.TV and the service also has apps for Ruko, Apple, Android, and more.
