the first time i tried this link - https://www.amc.com/shows/the-salisbury-poisonings/episodes/season-1-the-salisbury-poisonings-episode-1--48143 with the Firefox addon called the stream detector, it got the m3u8 files. closed the tab and reopened the tab to attempt to download the episode it now says it may have DRM protection. if you restart your browser, you should be able to get the m3u8 files for downloading.

Cannot really test anything here. Need a vpn for that. There are also non drm files available it seems

i was able to download & playback this episode just fine https://www.amc.com/shows/the-salisbury-poisonings/episodes/season-1-the-salisbury-poisonings-episode-1--48143

this episode - https://www.wetv.com/shows/life-after-lockup/episodes/season-3-threes-a-crowd--48289 requires a tv provider

These appear to be free and available (as of post time).

Yes, I too, can get the m3u8 in the browser, but thats not as easily automated.

Is there some output I can get for you? I am in the US and have a subscription.
