These shows have beautiful male friendships to offer.
Despite the temptation to ship characters romantically, there is an air of purity and glory about bromances. Maybe that's why we love fiction that gives us these relationships. These four Amazon Prime Video shows have the best male friendships.
The Summer I Turned Pretty – Jeremiah Fisher & Steven Conklin
Even if teen dramas aren't your cup of tea, you'll enjoy this coming-of-age series, adapted from Jenny Han's novel series of the same name, as it follows Isabel Conklin, who has just turned sixteen. As her family reunites with old friends, Isabel finds herself in a love triangle with her sons, Conrad and Jeremiah. But the show also features more wholesome relationships, such as the friendship between Jeremiah and Isabel's older brother, Steven. They tease each other from time to time, and their relationship has a kind of exciting romantic undercurrent.

Reacher – Jack Reacher & David O'Donnell
It's been over a month since the last episode of Season 2 was released, which means you can binge on two installments of this hit series at once. The action crime drama follows Jack Reacher, a former military police major, as he travels across the U.S. and helps solve various crimes. In Season 2, Reacher teams up with his old Army friend David, now a family man and successful lawyer, to investigate the murder of their fellow soldier, and the two develop a tremendous chemistry.

Invincible – Mark Grayson & William Clockwell
This adult animation was an instant hit when it premiered in 2021. Following Mark Grayson, a seemingly normal seventeen-year-old who happens to have immense superpowers thanks to his superhero father, the show immerses viewers in a sizzling family drama while also depicting something of the end of the world. Mark's relationship with his best friend William may be the show's only light moment, as the two make a great pair, taking care of each other and giving each other little gifts.

The Boys – Hughie & Billy Butcher
Another gritty superhero drama from Amazon Prime Video has spanned three seasons, with the fourth installment set to premiere this summer.

Over the years, they have developed a sibling-like bond, and their cruel but affectionate back-and-forth is a joy to watch.
