#COVID-19-BINGE-FEST - Prodigal Son (Season 1)


The 2019-2020 US TV season didn't have that many bright stars. Aside from newcomers like Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist (airing in Australia on Stan), 9-1-1: Lone Star (spin off of original series 9-1-1) and Batwoman.

However Prodigal Son is a gem within the rubbish of the last season. This is another series Greg Berlanti has his hands all over. Adding to his long list of series currently airing.

Airing on Foxtel's streaming services to binge now in Australia, Prodigal Son is a very easy and addictive watch. Originally set for 22 episodes, only 20 episodes were made for its first season. However the 20th episode kind of acts as a high drama finale.


Starring ex-Walking Dead Jesus character Tom Payne, looking a lot more handsome with shorter hair and less facial hair.

Everyone's favourite Lou Diamond Phillips also stars as Gil Arroyo, along with Michael Sheen as Dr. Martin Whitly and standouts Bellamy Young as Jessica Whitly & Keiko Agena as Dr. Edrisa Tanaka.

If you need something to watch during these winter nights/days, Prodigal Son might be for you.

In all honestly this was one of the best cut short seasons of the lot I have seen this COVID-19 effected season.

Looking forward to the second season, however as its filmed in New York, who knows when that will be.
