Amazon Prime

[Lineker]

I've just signed up to a new phone contract with Vodafone which gives me a year of free Amazon Prime Video. What's good to watch on there?

 

(I couldn't find an Amazon Prime megathread, so, uh, feel free to use this one, I guess?)

Homecoming is very good. 

[HarshMillennium]

Patriot! Is a funny dark comedy. 

[Rich]

Mr Robot

[K]

Jack Ryan is very good

[METALMAN]

They have Mr Bean

[stokeriño]

TBH I'm just waiting for Good Omens.

I think American Gods is on Amazon Prime. I like the book; I heard good things about the TV show.

I haven't seen the most recent season but The Man in the High Castle is brilliant if you like alternate history.

Avatar: The Last Airbender (TV show, not the film, never the film). Honestly, I went into it not expecting much and it wound up as one of best shows I have ever watched (adult or kids show).

I second @Rich‘s suggestion.

Mr. Robot is fucking excellent.

Vikings is good too.

Amazon Prime confuses me every time I use it. It takes me forever to actually figure out if a show is included or if I still have to pay for it and on one of the shows that it said was included, it told me it couldn't be played on my TV for one reason or another.

You can click the 'Included with Prime tab'

Also the ones included always have the the little banner in the top left hand corner that says prime.

It's not a great system though.

Agreed. They only added the "included with Prime tab" recently IIRC.

My dad is always complaining about the fact that he can't tell what's free and what isn't. It might be different on different apps. I know he doesn't update the apps on his TV because he can still rate Netflix titles out of five and he doesn't want to lose that.

The Grand Tour 

[DFF]

American Gods, Vikings, Preacher, The Expanse, Lucifer (I think it's still there?), Black Sails - all fun.

The aforementioned Homecoming, Mr. Robot and Jack Ryan are all great. I would imagine that the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel might be something you'd be interested. Not sure why tho...

Also, I haven't done this in awhile so I may be a bit rusty but....JUSTIFIED!!!!   And by extension, Sneaky Pete.

Thanks all. Very useful!
