“The streaming services that got the most nominations out of the top 20 shows are Prime Video (65 nominations), HBO Max (47 nominations) and Stan (33 nominations) in the gold, silver and bronze medal positions,” Today money expert, Joel Gibson said.
And while there are plenty of other streaming platforms that may have the Emmy-nominated shows you do want to watch, that can be pretty pricey if you want access to all of them.
But, Joel has some tips to keep those streaming costs under control and still get to watch all those popular shows.
“What I’d say is you’re obviously not going to watch all those shows simultaneously at the same time, so if you’re bingeing one show, pay for that streaming service, but if you’re not using one, you can turn it off for a while and turn it back on when you are going to use it again,” he said.
“There’s also this great rule I try to impose in my house called pick a winner - Everyone is allowed to pick one streaming service, if you want to sign up for another one, you have to turn off the one that you’ve previously nominated.”
Other tips can include keeping an eye out for special offers from external agencies like energy retailers or football clubs and taking advantage of free trials and free-to-air services (just keep an eye on when the free trial ends, so you don’t get stung when the billing period begins).
