In an era dominated by endless streaming options, starting a new TV show can feel like treading uncertain waters. Will the series go on for a dozen seasons? Or will viewers be left hanging on a heart-stopping cliffhanger, only to face the dreaded ax of cancellation? And that’s not even accounting for the multi-year waits some shows can have between seasons.
Fortunately, the world of miniseries can offer apprehensive viewers a respite from the commitment (and anxiety!) that can come with watching a full-fledged TV series. And if you’ve got an Amazon Prime Video account, you have access to a number of award-winning miniseries at your fingertips, including documentaries, sci-fi mysteries, historical dramas and more that you can finish in a couple of days — no commitment necessary!
