Amazon Prime Video’s September programming is slightly leaner than previous months, but there are still plenty of gems to be found. Following its June theatrical release, Mindy Kaling and Emma Thompson’s Late Night, about two women finding their place in the cutthroat late-night talk show world, becomes available for streaming. From BoJack Horseman creator Raphael Bob-Waksberg comes Amazon original Undone, an animated series following 28-year-old Alma, who explores the elasticity of time and reality after a near-fatal car crash. If you want something a little lighter, hold out for Legally Blonde or Saturday Night Fever at the end of the month.
Check out the full listings below to find out what’s new on Amazon Prime this month.
New on Amazon Prime: Editor’s picks
The Boys
If superheroes are going to dominate popular culture, then we at least deserve satire that’s as creative and interesting as The Boys. A partnership between comedy Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, and Supernatural creator Eric Kripke, the series follows a group of human vigilantes trying to take down corrupt superheroes. The Boys simultaneously parodies the military-industrial complex and Hollywood monoculture, but it’s also a great superhero show in its own right. The boys’ club writing tendencies and gory style will turn some people off, but for the most part, The Boys sucker-punches the superhero genre with a wink and a smile. —Brenden Gallagher
Fleabag season 2
Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Fleabag has returned for a second and likely final season that is equal parts heartbreaking and hilarious. Set one year after season 1, Waller-Bridge’s titular protagonist is still grappling with the death of her best friend, Boo, and breaking the fourth wall to address the audience. But this season also presents a new love interest for Fleabag: a priest (Andrew Scott) who is marrying her dad and stepmom, which is especially humorous considering Fleabag is an atheist. Fleabag season 2 is a bittersweet goodbye to the audience, and a poignant portrait of women and the choices they face. —Tiffany Kelly
Hanna
Esme Creed-Miles gives a compelling performance as Hanna, a teenage girl on the run from the CIA, in this thriller miniseries that blends Jason Bourne action with teen drama. Hanna may not be too exciting for diehard fans of the original movie, which benefitted from its aesthetic flair and offbeat humor. But if you’re looking for a mainstream action thriller with a compelling emotional core, you’ve come to the right place. —Gavia Baker-Whitelaw
