What can you do in just 30 minutes? You could cook a decent pan fried chicken and veg, or run to your local, down 2 pints and run home again. I also have no doubts that, in the near future, you could order a trampoline fromAmazonand have it delivered directly to your door.
But none of those are particularly useful if you’re just looking for something to watch on a brief train journey. Thankfully, Amazon’sstreaming servicealso has some fine examples of shows that are tightly scripted and produced to run in 30 minutes or less.
So, here are three recommendations of what you can enjoy on Prime Video when you don’t have much time.

Stan Against Evil
Take a slice ofEvil Dead, add a touch ofSupernatural, grab buckets of gore, and throw in one of the best and most underrated comedic actors of our generation. The end result isStan Against Evil.
It is campy, goofy, and lacks the huge budget that similar shows might have, yet it just works. The script is constantly laugh out loud funny, the action sequences look great, and the show is never afraid to lay it on thick with the gore and dismemberment.. something that it could quite easily have been sanitised for a wider audience.
Stan Against Evilis a show that never takes itself too seriously and yet delivers real heart and characters that,over time, you genuinely root for.

With only three seasons and episodes coming in at under 30 minutes apiece, this is the perfect little binge watch or something to cheer you up on a commute.
Undone
The first non-short television series to use rotoscope animation for every episode,Undoneis quite unlike anything out there at the moment. It is visually unique and features a mind-expanding storyline that can be demanding, yet is ultimately rewarding.
Undoneis a beautiful journey that combines the real and mystical to deliver a powerful message regarding fixing past mistakes and healing trauma. The rotoscoping works perfectly in this instance and adds to the beauty of the work
There’s a touch of Philip K. Dick about it, plus a hint of Terry Gilliam, a sprinkle of Allen, a nuance of Miyazaki, and no trace ofDisneywhatsoever.
All this in compact 30 minute episodes. Nice.
Homecoming
We all love strange, intriguing drama. We grew up on a diet ofLost,Twin PeaksandThe Twilight Zone, after all, and cut our teeth on shows likeBlack Mirror.Homecomingis very much in that realm.
Confusing, intelligent, and engrossing despite its strange run time (30 minute episodes for a peak TV mystery thriller is largely unheard of), the show is wholly binge worthy.
But, why has it taken so long for Julia Roberts to move to television? She is, as always, amazing and her turn of phrase and effortless style comes through perfectly in a drama that can move at a glacial pace but still deliver chills and shocks.
