Amazon says that day 3 of its week-long sales event has a “summer travel” theme, but not all the bargains involve summer. Although, we suppose that a deal on digital movie and TV show downloads could give you a reason to stay out of the heat and enjoy some entertainment in a nice air-conditioned living room or bedroom. If you’re looking for a new series or movie to start in the coming days and weeks, we have a few suggestions: Take advantage of today’s killer Prime Day countdown deals and pick up Breaking Bad, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 3, or Minions.
Breaking Bad – up to 57% off
Mild-mannered high school chemistry teacher Walter White thinks his life can’t get much worse. His salary barely makes ends meet, a situation not likely to improve once his pregnant wife gives birth, and their teenage son is battling cerebral palsy. But Walter is dumbstruck when he learns he has terminal cancer. Realizing that his illness probably will ruin his family financially, Walter makes a desperate bid to earn as much money as he can in the time he has left by turning an old RV into a meth lab on wheels.

Evolving from single-celled yellow organisms at the dawn of time, Minions live to serve, but find themselves working for a continual series of unsuccessful masters, from T. Rex to Napoleon. Without a master to grovel for, the Minions fall into a deep depression. But one minion, Kevin, has a plan; accompanied by his pals Stuart and Bob, Kevin sets forth to find a new evil boss for his brethren to follow. Their search leads them to Scarlet Overkill, the world’s first-ever super-villainess.
