Since Game of Thronesbecame a cultural phenomenon, every streaming service has searched for its own epic fantasy series. While some have achieved success and built their own audience, others have become severely underrated or even forgotten. The latter is the case for Prime Video's Carnival Row, a 2019 series starring Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevingne, which takes a unique approach to the genre. Though it takes place in a world full of mythical creatures, Carnival Row's setting is far from magical. Instead, these beings have left their war-torn home in search of a better life, only to become mistreated immigrants in an overpopulated city. This concept not only sets Carnival Row apart from most epic fantasy series but also allowsthe story to explore the social issues of prejudice and racism.
