What's good, and free, on amazon prime?

I'm new to prime and would appreciate tips on anything that's worth watching that's part of amazon prime's free programmes. I'm finding it difficult to browse and anything I think of isn't included in the free section. (I hoped Wolf hall would be there.)
Thanks

I'm rewatching old Ally McBeals atm

Depends if you want recently made or older stuff. They seem to have acquired a massive back catalogue of "nostalgia" stuff from late 90s/00s

New shows?

I absolutely loved Modern Love one of the best things I watched in 2019. Short episodes telling different kinds of love.

Outlander is good, but I always give the disclaimer that the 1st season has an extremely graphic rape scene that is tonally out of place for the type of show it is, and that if I could I would unsee it and I will never rewatch the show for this reason

I recently watched both Jack Ryan and Bosch. Preferred Bosch but it drags a bit.

The Boys is good but suffers from Seth Rogen type juvenile mistaking of swearing and graphic violence/sex for so cool edginess

Mrs Maisel starts well but apparently tails off.

@EineReiseDurchDieZeit that rape has stayed with me, so, so horrific. Brilliant show though.

Bosch
Marvellous Mrs Maisel
Good Omens
Jack Ryan

Me too bees Really not necessary though, they could have and should have slowly moved the camera away, showing it in its brutal entirety was just gratuitous.

Parks and recreation is brilliant
The Fall

We’d need to know what your tastes are, there’s such a huge catalogue.

I personally like:

Bones
New Amsterdam
Lie to me
Downton abbey
House
Bull
This is us
Unforgettable
Lucifer
The good fight
The good wife
The Americans

Some of these I’d already seen and liked on other platforms but they’re now on prime

Slow burners for me:
Madam secretary
Bosch
Supernatural

EsmeShelby · 02/01/2020 07:51

Lucifer
Goliath
Justified
Good omens
The Boys

CatsForLife · 02/01/2020 07:57

Marvellous Mrs Maisel is the best thing about Prime.

Chicksy · 03/01/2020 22:49

What kind of thing do you normally like.to watch?

New Amsterdam - medical drama is good.
Absentia - CIA drama
The Listener - easy watch
Past seasons of Law and Order

I had a few on my watch list that friends recommended and they've just been taken off so on the lookout myself.
