Christopher Briney and Lola Tung, My Summer Became Beautiful
Amazon Prime Video has joined other streamers (well, Netflix) in letting users know which shows and movies are the most popular via its Top 10 list. On July 21, Prime Video’s most-watched show was once again The Terminal List, a military thriller by Chris Pratt. Followed by the dark (and funny!) superhero series The Boys, the YA romance drama The Summer I Turned Pretty, and the crime drama Reacher, which are still in the top 5 despite being released in early February.
But a list of shows and movies alone isn’t enough, which is why we’ve given you a few guides and let you know which ones are worth your time. We’ll also show you what’s coming next to Amazon Prime Video so you know what’s going to be on the Top 10 list in the future.
Coming soon to Amazon Prime Video:
