Forget ‘Reacher,’ Prime Video’s ‘Bosch’ Proves Titus Welliver’s Detective Series Is Still the King of Streaming

One of the most dominant genres on streaming in the past decade or so has been prestige crime dramas, which have attracted major film actors to television with series like True Detective, Mare of Easttown, and Mayor of Kingstown. However, before we began to vibe to the frequency of these crime dramas, one series was already putting in the work a long time ago: Bosch. The series premiered on Prime Video in 2014 and went on to build a reputation for its character-driven storytelling, consistently relentless investigations, and a deep-seated respect for the daily grind of police work.
