While Netflix is often praised for its impressive teen shows, Prime Video has quietly built a strong collection of notable teen series that deserve recognition. One standout is the German romance series Maxton Hall—The World Between Us, or simply Maxton Hall.
The story centers on Ruby Bell, a brilliant scholarship student whose ambition and intellect set her apart at a prestigious boarding school defined by wealth and privilege. Ruby’s goal is to focus on her studies and earn a place at Oxford University. However, her plans are disrupted when she meets James Beaufort, a charismatic and mysterious heir to a family with deep influence over the school.
Forced to collaborate on a school event, Ruby and James slowly develop a reluctant partnership that evolves into an undeniable connection and sparks fly between them.
The first season of Maxton Hall premiered on Prime Video in May 2024 and was met with great acclaim. The highly anticipated second season has now begun, allowing fans to continue following Ruby and James' evolving love story.
"After the two are forced to work together on a school event, sparks eventually begin to fly, and what started as reluctant cooperation slowly transforms into a connection neither of them can ignore."
However, unlike the first season, season 2 was not released all at once, indicating a different release strategy for this new batch of episodes.
Maxton Hall season 2 continues the compelling romance and drama at the heart of the series, now rolling out episodes gradually on Prime Video to keep viewers engaged over time.
