Daisy Jones & the Six (2023)

Release Date3 March 2023
GenreDrama, Music, Romance
CreatorsScott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber
StarringRiley Keough, Sam Claflin, Camila Morrone, Will Harrison, Suki Waterhouse, Josh Whitehouse, Sebastian Chacon, Nabiyah Be, Tom Wright, Timothy Olyphant

Daisy Jones & the Six is a decade-long drama about the greatest band the 1970s never saw, from its inception through its meteoric rise and devastating fall. Daisy (Riley Keough), a bright but unmotivated ingenue in the late ’60s, joins the band of rising rocker Billy Dunne (Sam Claflin) and his band. Her heartfelt singing and sharp songwriting soon catapult The Six to stardom, but the band’s zenith is cut short by the ravages of time, love lost and found, drug use, and the stresses of rock ‘n’ roll. 

The Boys (2019-Present)

Release DateJune 3, 2022
GenreAction, Comedy, Crime, Drama, Sci-Fi
CreatorsEric Kripke
StarringKarl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Dominique McElligott, Jessie T. Usher, Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford, Tomer Capone, Karen Fukuhara, Nathan Mitchell, Colby Minifie, Claudia Doumit and Jensen Ackles

Superheroes are supposed to stand for optimism and hope; they manifest our best qualities. The Boys represent humanity’s worst qualities, such as greed and unchecked power, as depicted in the film adaptation of the darkly satirical Garth Ennis & Darick Robertson comic of the same name. There’s Billy Butcher and his “associates,” who take great pleasure in killing “Supes” who have been over the line, often in extremely brutal ways.

Invincible (2021- Present)

Release Date25 March 2021
GenreAnimation, Action, Adventure, Drama, Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Thriller
CreatoesRobert Kirkman, Ryan Ottley, Cory Walker
StarringSteven Yeun, JK Simmons, Gillian Jacobs, Andrew Rannells, Zazie Beetz, Grey Griffin, Kevin Michael Richardson, Walton Goggins, Jason Mantzoukas

Mark Grayson was inspired to continue his father’s legacy as the superhero Omni-Man when he discovered he had inherited his astounding powers and skills. A tragic turn of events tarnished his coming of age, shaking his entire universe personally and internationally. Invincible is a more mature look at the influence superpowered individuals might have on society, and the wonderful animated adaptation of the hit Image comic book by writer Robert Kirkman and illustrators Cory Walker and Ryan Ottley does a fantastic job of capturing that. It pays tribute to the cliches of young superhero stories but then does something Marvel and DC heroes never do: it matures.

The Underground Railroad (2021)

Release Date14 May 2021
GenreHistorical Fiction, Drama, Fantasy, History, War
CreatorBarry Jenkins
StarringThuso Mbedu, Chase W. Dillon, Joel Edgerton, Hechinger, Peter Mullan, Mychal-Bella Bowman, Sheila Atim

Based on the Pulitzer Award–winning novel by Colson Whitehead and directed by Barry Jenkins (Moonlight)- this limited series stays true to the book’s central premise. The novel reimagines the historical Underground Railroad, a network of smugglers who helped runaway slaves leave the South, as a modern underground system complete with trains and guarded stations.

The Man in the High Castle (2015-2019)

Release Date15 November 2019
GenreAlternate universes; Alternate history; Drama; Dystopia; Science fiction; Thriller
CreatorFrank Spotnitz
StarringRufus Sewell, Quinn Lord, Luke Kleintank, Joel de la Fuente, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Alexa Davalos, Bella Heathcote, Chelah Horsdal

In one of its earliest efforts into original content production, Amazon adapted a novel by science fiction writer Philip K. Dick set in a world where the Nazis triumphed in World War II. Although the world-building is impressive (a splintered, alternate-reality 1960s America has never appeared more plausible), some viewers may find the story’s parallels to our own all too obvious.

The Expanse (2015-2022)

Release DateDecember 14, 2015
GenreScience fiction; Drama
CreatorClinton Shorter
StarringFrankie Adams, Steven Strait, Cara Gee, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Dominique Tipper, Thomas Jane
Wes Chatham, Nadine Nicole

People from Earth now inhabit other planets in our solar system and beyond. A wealthy political activist goes missing, and it’s up to a band of antiheroes to figure out what happened to her. Political difficulties between Earth, Mars, and the Belt (a collection of colonies between the two worlds with loose ties to each other) only add another layer of complexity. There are six more seasons available on Prime, and each one features plenty of action-packed missions, space battles, and Martian politics to satisfy lovers of hard science fiction.

Sneaky Pete (2015-2019)

Release Date7 August 2015
GenreCrime,Thriller
CreatorBryan Cranston, David Shore
StarringLibe Barer, Giovanni Ribisi, Shane McRae, Marin Ireland, Peter Gerety, Margo Martindale, Bryan Cranston, Efrat Dor

Marius (Giovanni Ribisi), just freed from jail, assumes the persona of his former cellmate Pete Murphy to avoid his prior life’s hazards. On the run from a nasty debtor portrayed by Bryan Cranston (who also co-created the programme), Marius takes refuge among Pete’s misfit extended family, who are overjoyed to meet their long-lost uncle finally. However, the seas Marius is wading into are just as shark-infested as the ones he left. After three seasons, it’s clear that Sneaky Pete is among Amazon’s best drama offerings.

Mozart in the Jungle (2014-2018)

Release Date6 February 2014
GenreComedy, drama
CreatorAlex Timbers, Roman Coppola, Jason Schwartzman
StarringLola Kirke, Gael García Bernal, Hannah Dunne, Saffron Burrows, Bernadette Peters, Malcolm McDowell, Jason Schwartzman

Mozart in the Jungle is an unusual creature, a comedy-drama that chronicles the lives of New York City’s professional symphony members. The show centres on oboist hopeful Hailey Rutledge (Lola Kirke) and her complicated connection with New York Symphony music director Rodrigo De Souza (Gael Garcia Bernal). The engaging and frequently humorous programme has won Golden Globes and Emmy Awards, proving itself to be one of Amazon’s best exclusives, thanks to its talented cast and crew and its natural source material, the memoir Sex, Drugs, and Classical Music by professional oboist Blair Tindall.

Red Oaks (2014-2017)

Release Date28 August 2014
GenreComedy drama; Coming-of-Age
Creator Gregory Jacobs, Joseph Gangemi
StarringEnnis Esmer, Craig Roberts, Paul Reiser, Richard Kind, Alexandra Socha, Oliver Cooper, Jennifer Grey, Josh Meyers

David Myers (Craig Roberts), a college student and aspiring filmmaker in the mid-1980s, wishes for one final amazing summer before he has to grow up. Unfortunately, he cannot move forward with his life because he is stuck working at a pompous country club. David’s hopes of making it big in Hollywood are dashed as he deals with the club’s oddball patrons and their demands, which range from recording uncomfortable weddings to making sex films for swingers clubs, all while trying to keep his relationship with girlfriend Skye afloat. This charming period comedy has now completed its full three-season run.

Vikings

Release DateMarch 3, 2013
GenreHistorical Fantasy, Action-Adventure
ScreenwriterMichael Hirst
StarringTravis Fimmel, Katheryn Winnick, Clive Standen, Jessalyn Gilsig, Gustaf Skarsgård, Gabriel Byrne, George Blagden, Donal Logue

In the History Channel series, the historical Viking warrior and monarch Ragnar Lodbrok inspired Vikings. The show is a familial tale that delves into the personal lives, epic exploits, and cultural diplomacy of the raiders and explorers of the Middle Ages. Season five sees the addition of WWE wrestler Adam “Edge” Copeland to the cast as the plot moves to a civil war in Norway, fights in England against the Nordic invaders, and exploration of northern Africa. All six historically inspired action series seasons are available on Amazon Prime Video.
