5. The Boys

When you want something with superheroes that isn’t your typical Marvel or DC movie, then you’re going to want to turn to this Amazon Original. The Boys is one of the best Amazon Originals around, based on the graphic novels of the same name but taking you on a bigger and twistier journey.

More from Amazon Originals

There’s currently only one season, but the second season is in production. This series is so hot that there’s bound to be a third season to follow.

In a world where superheroes are real and have gained celebrity status, it turns out they’re abusing their powers. The Supes are more interested in money and fame than actually saving the world. That is all except one who joins The Seven as the newest member.

However, there’s a group of vigilantes who makes it their mission to bring down the superheroes. They want to take each one down a peg, making sure they start putting the people first. The problem is that they don’t have powers of their own, so how are they going to bring the Supes down?

The Boys certainly exceeded expectations. This Thanksgiving weekend, spend time binge-watching it so you’re ready for the second season.
