If You're Looking For Date-Night TV Shows, Try These 11 On Amazon Prime
It's official: Date nights in are en vogue. If you and your partner are planning your fair share of them, you'll need activities. Fortunately, Amazon Prime has plenty of date-night TV shows for you and your SO to work through. Sure, you've probably found several activities that make for great, date-night-at-home revelry. Chances are you've played bartender with your boo, filmed a TikTok dance challenge, tried every pasta recipe on Pinterest and have Instagram Lived as a couple at least once. Zoom happy hours with friends are great, but still, few things beat the date-night classics: a cozy blanket, refreshments of choice, takeout, and your head nestled on your bae's shoulder, watching TV. When you're on the hunt for something that'll keep you entertained for longer than an hour and a half, start up a TV show you've been meaning to find time to marathon.
If you're looking for a reprieve from Netflix and Hulu and you're eager to take advantage of Amazon Prime — beyond getting tie-dye kits, bath bombs, and ring lights shipped to your house for free, that is — here are 11 shows you and your significant other can get wrapped up in on date night.
