Prime Video’s Longest-Running Series After ‘Bosch’ Officially Hit 50B Minutes Watched



[

Prime Video has released plenty of big movies and TV shows this year, but few have reached the same heights as The Boys, the critically praised superhero series that’s been on the air since 2019. Prime Video announced at the end of Season 4 that The Boys had been renewed for Season 5, and at that time it was also confirmed that the fifth season would be its last. There was plenty of anticipation leading into the fifth and final season of The Boys, but after only a few weeks, fans began to turn on the show. Critics maintained a mostly high opinion of the final season of The Boys, but Season 5 is firmly the lowest-rated of the entire series by fans, who rated it a Rotten 49% on the audience-driven Popcornmeter.

Despite these series-low ratings, though, The Boys did more than hold its own on Prime Video streaming charts. Tomorrow will mark exactly one month since The Boys series finale, and the show is still hanging around as one of Prime Video’s top five most-watched TV shows in the world at the time of writing. Prime Video released more final viewership statistics yesterday evening, and it’s now been revealed that The Boys has been watched over 50 billion minutes by Prime Video subscribers since 2020. With the first season being released in 2019, this does not count viewers of the first eight episodes, at least those who watched them during the first six months they were on the air. Still, this is such an impressive total that The Boys will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the most popular superhero/sci-fi shows ever made.

Your Universe Has Been Chosen
You Belong In…

Your answers point to the iconic universe your values, your instincts, and your particular way of seeing the world were built for. This is where you would find your people — and your purpose.


A Galaxy Far, Far Away

Star Wars

You believe in the cause — in the idea that freedom is worth fighting for even when the odds are impossible and the empire is vast.

  • You are drawn to the moral clarity of a universe where hope itself is a form of resistance.
  • You’d find your people in the Rebellion — a ragtag coalition of true believers held together by conviction more than resources.
  • Star Wars is fundamentally a story about ordinary people choosing to matter in an extraordinary conflict — and that is exactly your kind of story.
  • The Force may or may not be with you. But the will to use it for something larger than yourself certainly is.


Middle-earth

Lord of the Rings

You understand, in the deepest part of yourself, that the journey matters as much as the destination — and that the world’s beauty is worth protecting even at great cost.

  • Middle-earth is a world of ancient wonder, deep friendship, and a darkness that only retreats when enough small acts of courage accumulate.
  • You would thrive here because you value the fellowship more than the glory — the road more than the arrival.
  • Tolkien’s universe rewards patience, loyalty, and the willingness to carry something heavy across a very long distance.
  • Those are not burdens to you. They are simply how you move through the world.


The Wizarding World

Harry Potter

You believe that love, loyalty, and doing what’s right are not naive sentiments — they are the most powerful forces in any world, magical or otherwise.

  • The Wizarding World is a place of wonder hidden in plain sight, where learning is transformative and the bonds you form at school follow you into every battle.
  • You would flourish here because you take both the magic and the friendships seriously — and you understand that one without the other is incomplete.
  • Harry Potter’s universe ultimately rewards those who choose to stand for something even when standing is terrifying.
  • That choice — made quietly, without guarantee — is something you understand completely.


Westeros · The Known World

Game of Thrones

You see the world clearly — its power structures, its hypocrisies, its brutal arithmetic — and you are not paralysed by that clarity. You use it.

  • Westeros is a world that rewards intelligence, adaptability, and the willingness to understand that every alliance is also a negotiation.
  • You would survive here — possibly thrive here — because you don’t confuse the world as it is with the world as you’d like it to be.
  • Game of Thrones is a story about what happens when the idealists and the realists collide. You are sharp enough to know which one lasts longer.
  • Winter always comes. You are already prepared.


The United Federation of Planets

Star Trek

You believe the future is worth building — that curiosity, cooperation, and the expansion of understanding are not just ideals but the most practical path forward for any civilisation.

  • Star Trek is a universe where the questions matter as much as the answers, and where encountering something utterly alien is cause for wonder rather than fear.
  • You would belong here because you are fundamentally optimistic about what intelligence and decency can achieve — while being honest about how hard that achievement is.
  • The Federation is the universe’s most ambitious thought experiment: what if we actually got better?
  • You don’t just hope that’s possible. You think it’s the only thing worth working toward.

What’s Coming Next From the World of ‘The Boys’?

The next show on the slate for The Boys universe is Vought Rising, the prequel series starring Jensen Ackles as Soldier Boy and Aya Cash as Clara Vought. Prime Video has yet to set an official date for Vought Rising Season 1, but it has been confirmed that the show will premiere next year — the first trailer dropped within a week of The Boys series finale. Prime Video’s other Boys spin-off, Gen V, was canceled after two seasons, but creator Eric Kripke has assured that fans will see the characters again at some point. Before it went off the air, The Boys was Prime Video’s longest-running show since Bosch, so it would be shocking if the streamer didn’t have big plans for the future.

Check out all five seasons of The Boys on Prime Video and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Vought Rising.
