And they also made noises about spending $1bil for the rights to the Chinese sci-fi book series that begins with The Three Body Problem.
I think their biggest success has been The Grand Tour, but there are rumors that next season is the last season for it. Transparent was their most critically successful series (won Amazon a few Emmys), but that's in trouble due to Jeffery Tambor's actions.
Jack Ryan seems to be their next big show. That and the Man in the High Castle are likely their biggest name dramas right now. Phillp K. Dick's Electric Dreams was pretty good as well, but who knows if they are going to continue that.
Though the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is probably the best thing they've ever done (and arguably better than anything Netflix has done)
