1 season. Renewed for a 2nd season

1 hour per episode
You can watch the whole season for a week. I highly suggest not to binge watch this, it is kind of disturbing.
House
A medical drama that focuses on unique, sometimes unknown, diagnoses. It focuses more on the solving of the disease, with a little sneak peak to the personal lives of each character. The lead character, Dr. House, played by Hugh Laurie, is sometimes a villain and sometimes a protagonist who you cannot help but hate or sometimes love.
8 seasons
24 episodes per season
45 minutes per episode
You can watch the whole series in maybe a month. Don't push to finish in a week, some episodes are too heavy. You need a break from it.
Law And Order: Special Victims Unit
An American crime drama about NYPD's Special Victims Unit detectives as they try to solve crimes on rape, abuse, human trafficking and other crimes with sensitive and sexual matter. Some of the episodes are based off of real crimes. It has been on air for so long, it has no plans of slowing down. It is known as longest running series on television.
21 seasons
23 episodes per season. That's a total of around 470 episodes
45 minutes per episode.
Do not binge watch this. Maybe watch it in the next 6 months. This is not for the faint of heart. A lot of heavy and disturbing plots on this series.
Modern Love
Amazon Prime Video original series based on the New York times column of the same name. Every episode features a different love story. It deals with different relationships and different types of love. Ready your tissues for this one because you would not be able to control your tears.
1 season. Renewed for a 2nd season
8 episodes
30 minutes per episode on average
Binge watch this the whole day because you would not want it to stop.
You can also listen to their podcast, Modern Love
The Exorcist
A supernatural horror series. When I say horror, I really mean horror. Do not watch this alone. It is based off of the 70's movie of the same name. I do not want to spoil it, but if you watched the movie, and you enjoyed it, YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS SERIES.
2 seasons
10 episodes per season
40 to 45 minutes per episode
Despite its great review, it was cancelled after 2 season. Maybe because it is too scary to be on TV. Or the Catholic Church was so enraged, they just had to stop.
That's it for my Top 10 Series To Watch On Amazon Prime Video While On Lockdown.
