Sure, you got your Amazon Prime account for the free shipping, but don't let that stop you from enjoying the amazing streaming TV options that are included with your membership! Prime Video isn't just for those of you who are burned out on Netflix. Amazon actually gets tons of exclusive shows that you won't find on the "new to Netflix" list. Plus, a few of its original series are shows you truly can't miss.
From summer blockbusters such as Orphan Black, Mr. Robot, and The Americans, Amazon Prime is the place to go to catch up on past seasons. Anglophile TV lovers will find a slew of PBS dramas and other British exports worth binge-watching, from all five seasons of Downton Abbey to Wolf Hall. Amazon Prime's deal with HBO for its original shows means you can also catch up on shows you haven't watched, but should, like Veep and The Wire, as well as binge on old episodes of Sex and the City whenever you want, even if you canceled your HBO Now subscription after Game of Thrones' last season ended.
If you're looking for something you can't watch anywhere else, Amazon Prime has that, too! Its award-winning series, Transparent, should go right at the top of your list. Click on for shows we think you should add to your up-next list on Prime.
Want something to fill the Game of Thrones sized hole in your heart? Give Vikings a try. The show is based on the ancient Norse story of Ragnar Lothbrok.
If you somehow missed this show, all seven seasons are available to Prime members. If you're looking for a series with a strong leading female who is sometimes an anti-hero, this is the binge-watch you need.
If you need a fix between seasons of Outlander, let The White Queen be your next historical drama. It has all of the romance, more of the royals, and just enough history to make you feel smart.
Reasons we recommend this for a binge-watch: it's a period drama, Keri Russell's spy disguises are amazing, and it's as sexy as TV can be.
