Highlights From Amazon Prime Video’s May 2024 Release Schedule

Mr Robot

Elliot (Rami Malek), a brilliant but unstable cyber-security engineer and vigilante hacker, becomes a key figure in a complex game of global chaos when he and his shadowy allies try to take down the corrupt corporation his company is paid to protect.

This was the series that put the Academy Award-winning Rami Malek on the map, and while the subsequent seasons weren’t as crash-hot as the stellar debut season, it’s worth your time all the same.


Parks and Recreations

Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler), a midlevel bureaucrat in an Indiana Parks and Recreation Department, hopes to beautify her town (and boost her own career) by helping local nurse Ann Perkins turn an abandoned construction site into a community park, but what should be a fairly simple project is stymied at every turn by oafish bureaucrats, selfish neighbours, governmental red tape and a myriad of other challenges. Leslie’s colleague Tom Haverford (Aziz Ansari), who delights in exploiting his position for personal gain, is as likely to undermine her efforts as to help her, while her boss, Ron Swanson (Nick Offerman), is adamantly opposed to government in any form, even though he’s a bureaucrat himself.

The Futurama to The Office’s The Simpsons — interpret that as you will — has found a new home at Amazon Prime Video.


Friday Night Lights

Coach Eric Taylor (Kyle Chandler) guides a high school football team through pressure-filled seasons while dealing with struggles relating to his own family. The interactions between the team members, current and former players, supporters, coaching staff, as well as regular townsfolk address many of the issues facing small-town America.

It wasn’t just one of the greatest dramas of the early 2000s, but one of the greatest sports-related shows ever created, period. And now, it’s available to binge from start to finish on Amazon Prime Video.


Outer Range season 2

Outer Range season 2 delves deeper into the enigmatic void on the Abbott family ranch, with the characters facing unforeseen circumstances that could impact the very fabric of time itself.

The Josh Brolin-led sleeper hit is back for more mind-bending sci-fi drama. For those of you who didn’t make time for the first season, all we’ll say is, do yourself a favour, and get up to speed. Because if you liked Yellowstone and Stranger Things, you’ll love this.


How Are Things Looking For Amazon Prime Video Australia In May 2024?

In light of the latest Prime Video release schedule, it seems as if the streaming service is only going from strength to strength.

Beyond Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn, Mr & Mrs Smith series starring Donald Glover and Maya Eskrine, and the second part of Invincible season 2, the long-gestating Fallout series adaptation has premiered to massive success, with the return of Outer Range and the long-awaited The Boys season 4 on the horizon.

There’s also a whole heap of cult favourites arriving. Following the entirety of Justified, we have the entirety of Mr Robot, Parks and Recreations, as well as Friday Night Lights to look forward to. How bloody good.
