YouTube is trying its best to compete with Netflix these days and is offering YouTube Premium for a monthly fee. It’s not sure so far if YouTube Originals will be as popular as the other streaming channels, but there is a selection of series and films to choose from.
There’s science fiction, comedy and thrillers to stream or download to watch online. Here are five choices.
‘Wayne’ action comedy series 16 January 2019
“Wayne” was created by Rheese Rees and Paul Wernick of “Deadpool” fame and tells the story of the titular “anti-hero” and his violent and difficult adventure he goes through with his girlfriend Del. The 10-episode series shows 15-year-old Wayne setting off on his dirt bike with Del to get back a 1978 Pontiac Trans Am stolen from his dad before his father died.
'Origin' - Science Fiction
As reported by IGN, “Origin” is available on YouTube right now – in fact you can watch some episodes for free.
