Bishop Arrives on Prime Video to Keep Crime Fans Hooked

Prime Video is adding a fresh crime drama to its lineup: Bishop, starring Joel Kinnaman as Detective Bishop Graves. Set in San Francisco, the series follows Graves as he hunts a serial killer who targets wealthy residents. Kinnaman’s character has a complex past, and the plot hints that the killer might be linked to his father, portrayed by John Malkovich.

Bishop fills the gap left by Bosch, which wrapped up after ten seasons in 2025. Both series share a setting on the Golden Coast and feature detectives who battle personal demons while solving tough cases. Fans of Bosch’s gritty style should find Bishop appealing.

Kinnaman is experiencing a resurgence on streaming platforms. He recently appeared in Netflix’s Jo Nesbø series Detective Hole, playing a corrupt partner to the main character. That show earned a 93 % rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and Kinnaman’s nuanced performance was praised.

Prime Video is building a strong lineup of crime thrillers, including Reacher, Cross, and Scarpetta. Bishop joins this roster, demonstrating Amazon’s commitment to high‑quality crime content. The platform also offers completed series such as Sneaky Pete and On Call, giving viewers a wide range of dark dramas to choose from.

With Bishop’s debut, Prime Video continues to expand its crime library, ensuring that new releases meet the high expectations set by earlier hits. Viewers can look forward to another intense, character‑driven story that keeps the mystery and suspense alive.
