Amazon Prime Video has a ton of content beyond just The Boys and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. I'm curious about hidden gem Amazon Prime series that don't get talked about enough. What are some lesser-known shows on Prime that are actually fantastic? I'm interested in both Amazon originals and licensed content that might be flying under the radar. Any recommendations for hidden gem Amazon Prime series that more people should check out?

For hidden gem Amazon Prime series, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is the obvious one but it's still underrated for how consistently brilliant it is. Also Fleabag season 2 is on Prime and it's perfect television. And The Boys - yes it's popular but still underrated for how smart and subversive it is as superhero satire.
