When I'm looking for something new to watch, I often turn to the Prime Video top 10. It's a great resource because it gives me a snapshot of what's currently popular and trending on one of the best streaming services. I trust that if so many people are watching and enjoying these shows, there's a good chance I'll find something I like too.
Plus, it saves me time; instead of endlessly scrolling through options, I can start with a curated list of what's hot right now. It feels like getting a recommendation from a friend who knows what’s worth watching.
So, if you’re stuck in a scrolling loop, we can help you find the perfect binge-watch by suggesting three of the best shows. Of course, "The Boys" and "Fallout" will probably remain in the top 10 for a long time (and they are truly amazing), but I've decided to offer other options that deserve to be seen as well.
This is based on the Prime Video top 10 shows as of Friday, July 19.
BEST SHOWS IN THE PRIME VIDEO TOP 10
'Gen V'
"Gen V" is a spinoff from the popular series "The Boys," set in the same universe. It centers on a group of young adult superheroes who are attending Godolkin University School of Crimefighting, a prestigious institution run by Vought International.
These students are put through rigorous training and competitions to determine who will rise to fame and potentially join the ranks of the elite superhero team, The Seven. It’s just as brutal as the main show, but it delves deeper into the corruption of the young adults who desperately want to join the group of “legendary superheroes.” Don’t worry — it also has the same dark humor and satirical edge that "The Boys" is known for.

'Reacher'
With season 3 of “Reacher” potentially hitting the small screen at the end of this year, it’s worth watching the first two seasons as a refresher (or for the first time). "Reacher" follows Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson), a former military police investigator who becomes a drifter, living a nomadic life and traveling across the United States.
The first season, adapted from the novel "Killing Floor," sees Reacher arriving in the small town of Margrave, Georgia, where he is falsely accused of murder. As he works to clear his name, he uncovers a deadly conspiracy involving corrupt officials and hidden crimes. The second season is based on the eleventh book, "Bad Luck and Trouble." Jack Reacher learns that members of his old military unit are being systematically killed, and so he sets out to uncover the truth and seek justice for his fallen comrades.

'The Boys Presents: Diabolical'
Yes, we have another show set in “The Boys” universe, but it’s the perfect watch if you’ve just seen the finale of “The Boys” season 4 and need to fill the void.
"The Boys Presents: Diabolical" is an animated anthology series that consists of eight standalone episodes, each crafted in a distinct animation style by various creators. These episodes delve into different facets of the world where superheroes, often morally corrupt and driven by corporate interests, wield significant power.
Each story offers a unique perspective on the dark and satirical themes characteristic of "The Boys," ranging from outrageous and humorous tales to gritty and violent narratives. The anthology format allows for a diverse exploration of characters and scenarios, providing fans with deeper insights into the twisted world of these flawed heroes and villains.
