Dude trust me, just get the basic torbox subscription, it's only 3$ a month and it will give you access to tonnes of cached TV series, movies, etc. (almost anything that isn't obscure) that you can watch/download at extremely fast speed.
And it gives you access to Torbox dashboard where you can just paste a torrent magnet link to download the files directly without worrying about VPN.
And it gives you 24 total hours of ultra fast seedbox that you can use to download even a slow 10kbps torrents at up to 1000Mbps speed.
All of that for just 3$, it's totally worth it.
