Making the Cut

Prime Video

Making the Cut is getting tossed down the chute like white pants after Labor Day. Just a few days after the Season 3 release of Tim Gunn and Heidi Klum's fashion reality competition series, Making the Cut has slipped all the way down to the seventh spot on Amazon Prime Video's top 10 movies and shows list. However, like All or Nothing: Arsenal, Making the Cut is released weekly, so expect it to reappear on the list each week. Reacher, previously displaced by Making the Cut, has punched its way back up to No. 5. I hope Reacher never leaves the list.

The most popular movies and shows on Prime Video are listed below, but we're also doing you a solid by letting you know which ones are worth watching. And to help you plan what you'll watch next, we've added the new shows and  movies coming to Prime Video, too.
