Returning: Bosch

Season five will have its Australian premiere on Amazon Prime in April.

Season five of Bosch will have its Australian premiere on Amazon Prime in April.

The series featuring Titus Welliver will screen same day as the US.

SBS has so far screened 4 seasons, but it isn’t clear how the Amazon premiere will affect future episodes.

Fifteen months after bringing his mother’s killer to justice, Bosch finds himself seeking the truth on two fronts. New evidence in an old case leaves everyone wondering, did Bosch cross the line by planting evidence and imprison the wrong guy? And a murder at a Hollywood pharmacy exposes a sophisticated opioid pill mill, but Bosch’s search for the killers takes him down a dark and perilous path.

Friday 19 April on Amazon Prime.

      1. Very disappointing on their part. We have Amazon Prime for Bosch only. If it doesn’t come back online within 48 hours we’ll cancel our subscription. Silly.

        1. Ok, so I’ve just had a reply from Michael Connelly, author of the books and executive producer of the series – it sounds like SBS now have first rights for S5 and will air it first – but no air date yet.

          1. Update: to be aired on SBS in October ‘19 (update direct from Michael Connelly)

    1. I hope this is not true (that SBS still have it). When I contacted SBS about the long wait for an earlier season they said this was in the terms of the contract with the owner. It seems true as it aired almost six months to the day after the Amazon release.

  1. Much appreciated. As a big fan of the books I am really annoyed at having to wait 6 months for each series and then get it one episode a week while the rest of the world ( or just about) can binge watch it so much sooner. Am prepared to pay $7 for the privilege!!

  2. Where did you get your information? I have been in contact with Amazon and been told it is not available in this region. If your info is reliable can you please ask them to make it available.

          1. Ok something weird is going on, went to watch season 5 tonight and now it’s saying it’s unavailable again.

          2. Same thing for me. Watched 3 episodes last night, went to pick up tonight and season 5 has become unavailable.

          3. Hi, The same thing happened to me. I saw that Season 5 was now included, went to season 5, played the next 30 seconds or so, backed out ready for viewing the next night. Started to set up to watch the next night and “Low and Behold” it’s only seasons 1 – 4 included with season 5 not being available in my area (Victoria Australia) WTF????????

          1. Have been hanging out for this to drop and was very disappointed that it didn’t arrive then did and disappeared again I have contacted Amazon twice and been told it was US release only on advice from the ‘film rights’ department any release here is in error… look forward to hearing your progress.

  3. Either Amazon sold the rights conditionally or SBS has handed or sold them back. We will find out if SBS will still show Bosch, but its not in Amazon’s interests for them to do so.
