There's a lot of good stuff on Amazon Prime Video, but for me the jewel in the crown is Upload. An original series conceived by Greg Daniels (creator of the US Office), it's quite simply the best thing on the platform. The third season began airing on October 20th and finishes this weekend but I'm quite concerned that you (the wider world) haven't been showing it enough love.

...

Set primarily in an idyllic digital heaven called Lakeview (think The Good Place meets a five-star hotel) Upload follows the (after) life of Nathan Brown, a young coder who had a tragic accident. Despite that premise, it's genuinely the funniest show I've seen in years, and it's not even a pure comedy. The plot is up there with some of the most exciting series out there and all the characters (even the secondary ones) are compelling.

I suppose they're right about not showing it enough love as it's on my watchlist but I haven't seen an episode. Yet. I may have to rectify this sooner rather than later.

I've been watching since it came out. It's pretty good but not revolutionary or anything. It's pretty funny though.
