Whether you’re stuck at home in quarantine or just looking to spice up those weekday evenings, there’s plenty coming to Amazon Prime over the autumn.
Here’s our round-up of the shows and films you don’t want to miss:
The Boys (Season Two), 4 September
Set in a parallel universe in which superheroes are real – and form a crucial part of America’s police industrial complex – The Boys is a smart and timely satire that packs a serious punch.
Don’t let the familiar capes and claws aesthetic fool you: this is no Marvel rip-off. For all their YouTube-friendly stunts, this is a series about how latex-clad ‘supes’ aren’t always as wonderful as they make out – a fact hidden by their shadowy corporate backers.
The titular Boys on the other hand are a squad of loveable outcasts looking to expose the worst offenders for exactly what they are: a bunch of self-serving hypocrites intent on strong-arming politicians into hiring their services.
