I torrent a lot of TV shows. And American Greed popped up a lot. I always dismissed the show until they they recently did a ep on the Fyre festival. I consume every bit of media about the Fyre festival. I Watched the ep about it. Then I saw that American greed is actually one of the best shows on TV. So I set Sonarr to grab every episode. It grabbed 114 of them. And I have now watched them all all.

But 80% of the episodes deal with Ponzi schemes claiming unrealistic returns. Part of me feels bad for the people. The other part doesn't since they think they can get a 5% return a month. If you can do 5% a month wall street will toss trillions at you.




>Then I saw that American greed is actually one of the best shows on TV.

It is:) Over the years I have watched every episode and now have status of "All caught up" Hulu.


Is Sonarr good? I use plex and some manual steps, but it looks interesting from their website alone.


Absolutely. Automate TV downloads, pick the quality, pick the language if you want, and let it do its thing. If it’s not in your Usenet/Plex pipeline you need to add it.

There’s one for movies called Radarr and one for music called Lidarr. I’ve found them less useful and don’t use them but it’s worth a try.


Why do you find radarr less useful?

With jackett you can use the same interface as sonarr to an indexer. They are very similar in concepts too (radarr is based on sonarr).

The only truly missing feature is the ability to request a movie in another language. Radarr is strictly one language per movie.


American Greed is a good show. Most people just look rich and get other rich people to invest. A nice suit, car, and house can’t get you pretty far I guess...even if it’s just a house of cards.
