BEST SHOWS IN THE PRIME VIDEO TOP 10

'From'

One of my favorite shows ever has to be "From", and I’m happy to see it in the No.2 spot (I’m hoping it will take first place soon because it deserves it). With season 3 just around the corner, it makes sense why people are binge-watching the first two seasons again.

"From" is a horror-thriller that centers around a mysterious small town where anyone who enters cannot leave. The show follows a group of trapped residents as they struggle to survive and find answers, while facing terrifying, deadly creatures that look exactly like normal people. A group of newcomers try to figure out how they ended up in this strange, nightmarish town, and they quickly learn that the place has its own sinister rules and hidden dangers.

'The Boys'

Watch On

"The Boys" season 4 ended almost two months ago, but it’s still going strong in the top 10. Set in a world where superheroes are not the selfless heroes they appear to be, "The Boys" offers a dark, satirical take on the superhero genre. These powerful figures are corrupt, egotistical and controlled by a powerful corporation called Vought International. The story follows two main groups: The Seven, Vought’s top team of superheroes, and The Boys, a vigilante group aiming to expose and take down the corrupt Supes. 

At the heart of the story is Hughie Campbell (Jack Quaid), an ordinary guy who hates The Seven because one of them killed a loved one. Hughie teams up with Billy Butcher (Karl Urban), the leader of The Boys, who has his own vendetta against Homelander (Antony Starr), the most powerful and dangerous member of The Seven. Together, they go on a mission to bring down Vought.

The "Fallout" show is based on the popular video game series of the same name. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, it explores life after a nuclear war has devastated much of the planet. The story takes place in an alternate timeline where technology evolved differently, featuring 1950s-style aesthetics with advanced robotics and powered armor. 

This specific story centers around Lucy (Ella Purnell), a sheltered vault dweller who steps out into the outside world for the first time. Maximus (Aaron Moten) is a newcomer to a powerful faction obsessed with preserving advanced technology. Cooper Howard (Walton Goggins) is a former Hollywood actor who survived the nuclear devastation and has transformed into a mutated outlaw with his own hidden agenda.
