DVDs: See “Recently Released Euro TV DVDs” for more English-subtitled foreign-language DVDs that are now available for purchase in the US and UK. Also see “Euro TV Shows by Language” for additional titles. A few that we recommend include the ones below.
(For Euro TV fans who also enjoy British TV programs, visit The British TV Place for DVDs from the UK, as well as Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and Ireland.)
Region 1 DVDs (coded for the US)
The Eagle: A Crime Odyssey: Season 1
Marie’s Mind for Murder: Set 1
Region 2 DVDs (coded for the UK)
Multi-Region/Region-Free DVD Players: These DVD players let Euro TV fans watch DVDs of English-subtitled, original-language shows that have screened in the UK but not in the US, and vice versa. Because discs are coded for a particular region (Region 1 for US, Region 2 for UK, etc), these are the only DVD players that play discs coded for any region.
To learn more about these gadgets, read this. To see additional models, click here if you’re in the US and here if you’re in the UK.

Streaming Media Players: These must-have gadgets let fans watch Euro TV content on (larger-screened) televisions instead of just on (smaller-screened) desktop, laptop, and hand-held computers. While many streaming channels are free, Acorn TV, Amazon Prime Instant Video, Hulu Plus, and Netflix are paid subscription channels.

Services that Expand the Streaming Experience: For Euro TV fans who’d like to watch streaming videos from sites like Hulu on a variety of devices, record shows, and skip the ads, PlayOn lets subscribers do all of that. And for viewers who’d like to access shows from other countries, services like Unblock-us, as well as Avast SecureLine VPN and vyprVPN, which also provide privacy protection, let subscribers do this, too.
Gift Cards: The most versatile gifts for Euro TV fans are gift cards. Amazon Gift Cards can be used to purchase anything at the internet retail giant, including titles from Amazon Instant Video. The Walmart gift card can be used in the US at the retailer’s stores, website, and Vudu VoD service. For gift cards that can be used elsewhere, consider these:
Buy iTunes $25 eCard from Walmart
Buy Visa $50 Gift Card from Walmart
Buy MasterCard $50 Gift Card from Walmart
Buy American Express $100 Gift Card from Walmart
Language-Learning Resources: No gift guide for Europhiles would be complete without language-learning resources. The ones below are for the languages of shows covered here on The Euro TV Place.
