So here's my honest take on Acorn TV: Brilliant Hit Series. I've tested a bunch of streaming apps and this one's pretty solid. The selection of British, Irish, and Aussie TV shows is really impressive, with a nice mix of classic series and new originals. The app is user-friendly and makes it easy to find new things to watch. In my experience, the video quality is great and it streams smoothly even on older devices. The main downside is the limited library compared to a behemoth like Netflix, but if you're a fan of that specific style of TV, Acorn is definitely worth checking out.

Description

Been using Acorn TV: Brilliant Hit Series for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that lets you stream tons of amazing TV shows from the UK, Ireland, Australia, and more. Pretty solid if you’re into British and international dramas, mysteries, and comedies.

Here’s what you can do – there’s a huge library of shows to choose from, with new titles added all the time. You can watch fan favorites like Doc Martin, Midsomer Murders, and Line of Duty, plus Acorn TV originals you can’t find anywhere else. It’s got a really clean, easy-to-use interface that makes finding new shows a breeze.

Look, if you’re a fan of British TV, you’ll probably love this. It’s not perfect – the selection can be a bit limited compared to Netflix, and the ads can get annoying if you don’t pay for the ad-free version. But overall it’s a great way to get your fix of high-quality international shows.
