The Wheel of Time

Scene from Wheel of Time of a woman and a man sitting on a bouldered hill.

Where: Amazon Prime
What: Series, 9 episodes, new episode Fridays through Dec. 31, 60 mins.
When: Now
Genre: Fantasy
Why you should watch: Jeff Bezos wanted Amazon to create a less dick-driven GoT and this Dames of Thrones, based on Wheel of Time fantasy fiction series, is a fem-positive swashbuckler with estrogen-fuelled ass kicking and no rapes. There are creatures and quests, lots of heroic women and characters you care about by third episode. Amazons from Amazon looks like winner.
