NEW ON PRIME VIDEO IN JANUARY 2025: TOP PICKS
'Harlem' season 3
Prime Video's under-the-radar comedy returns after its shocking season two cliffhanger left us wondering what's next for "Harlem's" four main best friends: Quinn (Grace Byers), Tye (Jerrie Johnson), Camille (Meagan Good) and Angie (Shoniqua Shandai). Season 3 promises even more twists and turns as the women navigate motherhood, relationships, and career crossroads in the titular New York City neighborhood.
This time around, a few new faces are sure to stir things up. New cast members include Seth (Kofi Siriboe), a charming MLB player who's stealing hearts; Portia (Logan Browning), an old flame of Camille's beau; and Eva (Gail Bean), Tye's driven new co-worker.

NFL Wild Card Game
For the first time, Prime Video is expanding its NFL offerings into the postseason. Football fans can catch the first Wild Card playoff game the weekend of January 11, a first-ever for the streamer.
The game will feature commentary from legendary play-by-play announcer Al Michaels and analyst Kirk Herbstreit, with Kaylee Hartung reporting from the sidelines. Host Charissa Thompson will break down all the storylines before, during, and after the game alongside analysts Tony Gonzalez, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Andrew Whitworth, and Richard Sherman, while Taylor Rooks will contribute with features and Albert Breer will share news and notes from around the league.
Stream it on Prime Video on January 11 or 12 (date TBD)
'You’re Cordially Invited'
Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell are at each other's throats in "You're Cordially Invited," Prime Videos' new R-rated comedy. The two stars play concerned family members of brides-to-be whose weddings are accidentally booked on the same day at the same venue.
The venue's booking error sets off a battle of wits between Ferrell’s helicoptering single dad and Witherspoon’s type-A sister of the bride, each of whom is determined to make sure their family's special weekend goes off without a hitch. From "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and "Neighbors" director Nicholas Stoller, "You're Cordially Invited" promises to be a chaotic and hilarious ride.
