I'm thinking the glitch is some code that makes sure the cost of a season is not more than the cost of all the episodes combined, and then a problem with the system not knowing if a particular season is a miniseries or a one-off episode or a full season.
I've come to this conclusion because the cheap price is the price of 1 episode (with the exception of some shows in the last few months priced at $4 instead of $3) and some of the shows doubled in price to the cost of 2 episodes after the 2nd episode was released. Most of the shows simply increased to their normal price of $25-35 indicating that the low price was most likely not intended.
I assume Amazon will eventually fix this, but I'm loading up on any show I think I might like (or already know I do) and now I have no need for hulu

And thanks OP. Totally worth $3 to not have to watch commercials (for something we were going to watch anyway). If we re-watch it later it'll just be a bonus.
