Streaming Services' Power Struggle: A Shift in Ownership Dynamics
Prime Video's new historical drama House of David has become the streamer's second most-watched show in the US, with Reacher season 3 still claiming the top spot. The show chronicles the rise of biblical figure David, who becomes the most prominent king of Israel, and follows his struggle for power after losing it to the prophet Samuel. With a 60% Rotten Tomatoes score from critics but an impressive 88% audience score, House of David is just one example of the many historical dramas available on Prime Video.
