Now you can find pop who played that guy Raylan Givens that shot down on Justified without frantically meddlesome the internet while pausing the show.
On Wednesday, amazon announced it is expanding its roentgen ray own to TV shows. The feature uses the company’s IMDb database of movie and picture content to add real-time actor information to Amazon’s Instant goggle box service. The feature will be available for 13 shows — including Downton Abbey, The Walking Dead and punt of Thrones — to start, only Amazon is working with IMDb to expand the service.
“Our vision is to make roentgenogram available on every movie and TV show, we’re excited to make another big step in the lead today, and we are working hard to add X-Ray to more(prenominal) TV shows and movies in the future,” IMDb CEO Col Needham said in a statement.
The feature will be available on the latest Kindle Fire as well as the Kindle Fire HD tablets and through the Amazon Instant Video app for Wii U. Although mobile and Wii U integration are nice, Amazon’s notoriously persnickety UI beyond those platforms could do with a well update to bring X-Ray to other consoles and OTT boxes. With Netflix preinstalled on roughly every device that connects to an HDTV, if Amazon hopes to dethrone the streaming delineation leader, it needs to push its service onto those same devices with features like X-Ray to differentiate it from Netflix.
We’re still awaiting word from Amazon on when, and if, the service will come to Apple TV, Roku and the rest of the set-top world.
The shows acquire the X-Ray also include The West Wing, Sons of Anarchy, Falling Skies, American Horror Story, Doctor Who, Lost and Breaking Bad.
We’re especially happy that we’ll finally be able to figure out who all the actors are beneath those bushy beards in Game of Thrones.
