- Jury Duty (S1) One of the few Amazon originals made specifically for its ad-supported Freevee offshoot (which means you don’t need an Amazon Prime account to watch – just a strong stomach when it comes to unskippable commercial breaks), this hilarious reality show is ostensibly a fly-on-the-wall series about the ups and downs of serving on a jury.

- Daisy Jones & The Six (S1) Adapted from the 2019 novel of the same name, this story of the rise and fall of a 1970s Los Angeles rock band isn’t short on cliché.
