Best New Series on Amazon Prime
The whole reason we come to the streamer in the first place, new Amazon Prime Video series launches are the stuff of gold. That said, it’s slim pickings this month in terms of new releases. But that doesn’t mean you have nothing to look forward to. An Aussie crime comedy series from the creative duo of Kate McCartney and Kate McLennan helps kick off the month of June and we’ll be tuning in as soon as it lands. Here are the best new series coming to Amazon Prime Video in June 2023.
Deadloch
This eight-part series hails from Australia and promises to turn the ubiquitous crime genre on its head by way of copious comic injections. It welcomes viewers to the sleepy Tasmanian hamlet of Deadloch, where a local man is murdered. The subsequent investigation pairs a local officer with a blowhard from out of town and an overzealous junior constable. If this is all starting to sound a bit too familiar or formulaic, that’s probably the point. We’ll be tuning in to see if the show can deliver an effective balance between comedy and mystery.

Hammond will drive a Subaru Impreza WRX, while James May will pilot a Mitsubishi Evo VIII. Clarkson will travel in an Audi RS4 B7, much to the disbelief of his partners. naturally, they also embark on a catastrophe-filled adventure that takes in Cold War submarine bases – frozen lake racetracks, crashes and ski resort chaos as they drag their homemade houses from the coast of Norway to the Russian Border.
