M&M's launched a new skill for Amazon Alexa called 'Red Recommends' that is specifically designed to help people figure out what to watch. While streaming services provide members with access to the potential for hours upon hours of entertainment, users can simply become overwhelmed, when it comes to deciding to revisit an episode of their favorite show or start a new series entirely.
Red, M&M's "spokescandy," is now stepping in to help with choices of boxsets or movies, based on a few questions. Alternatively, Amazon Alexa users may also talk with Red to discover his own personal picks which are a mix of both classics and new releases. Red Recommends will be available to all Alexa users until the end of October which is perfect for picking a Halloween movie.
