Prime Video has repeatedly stepped up to the plate to deliver the sci-fi goods.
Over the past decade, we’ve been in a golden age for science fiction on TV. The episodic format has drawn streaming audiences into various immersive, high-concept programs. Amazon-owned streaming platform Prime Video has pumped out quality show after quality show, giving viewers everything a genre fan could want — from the satirical to the dystopian.
No matter what you’re in the mood for, it’s here. Want a postapocalyptic video game–inspired mutant adventure? Prime Video has it. How about Philip K. Dick’s thought-provoking depiction of a Hitler-ruled America? That’s here, too. Plus, there’s that peculiar Western starring Josh Brolin. And who can forget The Boys, the streamer’s ultra-bloody superhero satire hit? I can’t, and if you haven’t watched it, you should turn your computer off and go do that, right now.
We’re just scratching the surface of Prime Video’s epic content library. There’s also an animated anthology series inspired by an array of iconic video games, a futuristic comedy about the afterlife from the creator of The Office and much more. If you haven’t figured it out yet, there’s a jam-packed list of goodies to sift through. Read on for our guide to the best sci-fi shows on Prime Video.
