For anyone looking to get lost in magical worlds, epic battles, or a bit of supernatural fun, Prime Video has a solid lineup of fantasy shows to binge this weekend. Whether the plan is a late-night watch with friends or just something to unwind with after a long day, these five series are some of the best picks streaming right now.
Set thousands of years before Frodo ever picked up the One Ring, this show takes viewers deep into the history of Middle-earth. From Elves fighting evil forces to the rise of Sauron, it’s full of action, drama, and massive storylines. The visuals are incredible, huge battles, ancient cities, and jaw-dropping scenery.
Why it's a good pick: It’s perfect for fans of high-stakes fantasy like Game of Thrones or The Witcher. There’s a lot of lore, but the story is easy enough to follow even for newcomers.
This one’s based on a best-selling book series and centers on a group of young villagers who suddenly find themselves pulled into a world of prophecy and magic. One of them might be the chosen one who can save or destroy the world. The latest season brings in darker themes, new places, and more intense battles.
Why it's a good pick: It’s got a strong mix of magic, friendship, and twists that keep things interesting. The show also doesn’t waste time; it throws viewers right into the action.
Unlike most fantasy shows, this one is animated and not for kids. It follows a chaotic group of misfit heroes who fight dragons, ghosts, and each other. It’s packed with swearing, dark humor, and surprisingly emotional moments.
Why it's a good pick: Each episode is short, around 25 minutes, and it doesn’t take itself too seriously. It’s a great break from the usual heavy fantasy shows while still delivering cool fight scenes and fun characters.
This show brings together an angel and a demon who’ve both grown a bit too fond of Earth. When they learn that the end of the world is coming, they team up to try to stop it. It’s funny, clever, and filled with quirky moments, thanks to a script written by Neil Gaiman and a cast led by David Tennant and Michael Sheen.
Why it's a good pick: It’s light, easy to follow, and full of charm. The characters carry the show, and the story manages to balance comedy with real heart.
One of the newest entries on the list, House of David tells the story of a young shepherd who rises to become a king. It’s based on the biblical story of David, but told with the pacing and drama of a modern fantasy series. Think swords, betrayal, and big emotions.
Why it's a good pick: It’s fresh, intense, and tells a well-known story in a way that feels new. It also has strong performances and big production value, which help it stand out.
