Ready to upgrade your streaming queue? Amazon Prime Video is more than just free shipping; it's a treasure trove of entertainment! This year's lineup is packed with fresh series, exciting new seasons, and spin-offs that will keep you glued to your screen. Let's dive into the best shows to stream on Prime Video in 2025!
First up, we have Reacher. If you're a fan of action-packed thrillers, this series is a must-watch. Jack Reacher, the former military officer turned drifter, finds himself embroiled in a DEA investigation. He goes undercover as a bodyguard for the son of a rug import company owner, leading to a web of shady dealings.
Next, let's talk about Fallout. Video game adaptations are getting better and better, and Fallout stands out as one of the best. The second season expands the scope, delving deeper into the post-apocalyptic world and exploring the past. You'll reunite with vault dweller Lucy, conflicted Brotherhood of Steel knight Maximus, and the Ghoul as they navigate a dangerous new reality.
Then there's Hazbin Hotel. The second season is another strong entry into the musical series. Charlie Morningstar and her dysfunctional group of friends work to revive the hotel after it was nearly destroyed by an attack from heaven. But things don’t stay peaceful for long, as the three Vs leading Hell’s entertainment industry plot to expand their control over the netherworld.
For those who love crime dramas, Bosch: Legacy is a must-see. The third and final season sees Harry Bosch taking on the role of private investigator, dealing with the fallout from his daughter's kidnapper's murder. At the same time, Bosch delves into the disappearance of the Gallagher family as Honey “Money” Chandler launches a campaign to become Los Angeles District Attorney.
If you're disappointed that Bosch: Legacy has come to a close, Prime Video debuted a spinoff series in July. The show, called Ballard, stars Maggie Q as Detective Renée Ballard, the head of the LAPD’s new — and underfunded — cold case division. As Ballard and her team dust off old homicide investigations, she dredges up evidence of deep-seated corruption within the police department.
Get ready for a major shift with Invincible. Mark Grayson steps into a new suit and a new role as the Earth’s defender. Throughout the season, Grayson trains even harder as he prepares for battle with the powerful, superhuman warriors from the Viltrum Empire, while continuing to wrestle with and distance himself from the influence of his father, Omni Man.
Next, The Family stars Daniel Dae Kim as David Jung, a former spy who comes out of hiding to find his daughter, Rebecca, who is working as an assassin in South Korea for a now-corrupt intelligence agency called Caddis. With his wife and small child in tow, David aims to pull Rebecca from Caddis’s clutch — but his ties to the organization put a target on the back of him and his family.
While we wait for the final season of The Boys, check out its spin-off, Gen V. Picking up after season 4 of The Boys, the series follows Marie and her friends as they navigate a transformed Godolkin University — now a militarized training ground for supes — amid a world where Homelander has more control than ever.
For anime fans, Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX is a must-watch. Set in an alternate universe, the story follows Amate Yuzuriha, a high-school student who becomes the pilot of the mobile suit prototype, GQuuuuuuX. Amate engages in a series of clan battles while fighting to protect her friend, a war refugee.
Finally, The Girlfriend is a six-episode series that's easy to binge-watch. It stars Robin Wright as Laura, a wealthy mother who’s a bit too protective of her son and becomes overwhelmed with suspicion after meeting his charming new girlfriend, Cherry Laine. As Laura becomes increasingly obsessed with uncovering Cherry’s true intentions — whether real or imagined — her fixation begins to strain her relationship with her son and fractures the rest of her family.
