I don't know if you would call it Amazon's as it originally started at SyFy, but The Expanse was amazing.

Yeah, people forget there was a whole public begging of the audience for Amazon to save the show since they already had some distribution rights. It was a little desperate for money.

But the other thing is that Amazon still never really made the show, Alcon still made the show, in house production and payment and then Amazon was just footing the bill by paying for sole distribution rights. It's not uncommon but it wasn't Amazon's show
