This will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back for me.

God forgive me, I’m going defend Prime. I always thought that because Prime was also required for faster shipping, they were willing to explore artistic shows that something like Netflix wouldn’t touch these days. People likely aren’t subscribing or cancelling because of the video offer, so they have more freedom to greenlight interesting concepts.
Prime shows like Solos and Tales from the Loop probably aren’t great for getting new subscribers, but they’re absolutely wonderful, especially compared to season 47 of [generic low-budget comedy baking reality show]. Shows like The Expanse, Mr Robot, Homecoming are all solid and Prime seems far less likely to cancel shows before they end properly.
I’m going to add onto that The Boys and Invincible. Ya I agree that it’s probably one of the better ones.
I loved what the grand tour was able to accomplish on prime that they simply couldn’t on BBC with top gear. The early seasons are wonky with weird formatting, but when they started focusing more on specials in the later seasons (seamen, eurocrash, the Mongolian special, a massive hunt) have been some of the best top gear content since like top gear season 7
