With an ever-expanding library, figuring out what’s worth your time can feel overwhelming. To help you cut through the noise and prevent the endless scrolling, we’ve chosen three standout shows from Prime Video’s current top 10 that deserve your attention right now.
This is based on the Prime Video top 10 shows as of Monday, November 25.

‘Cross’
Prime Video’s new No.1 show is a crime thriller, and you can binge the entire season now. If you’re a fan of unsettling crime thrillers with a complex lead character and plenty of shocking drama, “Cross” should be on your watchlist.
This show centers on Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge), a brilliant homicide detective and forensic psychologist based in Washington, D.C. Tasked with tracking down a brutal serial killer, Cross faces mounting pressure as the killer’s horrifying crimes send shockwaves through the city.
With the support of his loyal partner, John Sampson (Isaiah Mustafa), Cross is in a race against time to bring the murderer to justice. But the case takes a deeply personal twist when someone from Cross’s troubled past emerges, threatening not only his investigation but also his career, his strained family relationships, and his fragile grip on his own inner peace.
