Amazon Prime Video spent 16 billion dollars on content last year and it's the worst of all the major streaming platform when it comes to original programming.
In the last year, their big budget bombs:
- Wheel of Time barely watchable CW quality TV
- Lord of the Rings oh my gosh level bad
- Citadel unwatchable it's so bad
I will admit they do have some OK recent content. The Peripheral was entertaining, for example.
But man, who gets fired for those billion dollar bombs?

Instead Rand was sidelined, they made me hate Galadriel, et al. I can't imagine paying millions for a recipe and then throwing it out because I think I know better.
