If you've already devoured Tessa Coates's action-comedy Ride or Die—starring Octavia Spencer and Hannah Waddingham as best friends turned fugitives—and are looking for something different to watch on Prime Video before July 27, 2026, you're in luck. The platform is packed with hidden gems and beloved series that deserve a spot on your watchlist. Here are three shows you should binge before the month ends.
1. Grimm (2011–2017)
Created by Stephen Carpenter, Jim Kouf, and David Greenwalt, Grimm is an urban fantasy police procedural that follows Portland homicide detective Nicholas Burkhardt (David Giuntoli). After discovering he's a descendant of the legendary Grimms—guardians sworn to maintain balance between humanity and mythical creatures called Wesen—Nick must battle monsters straight out of Brothers Grimm tales. The ensemble cast includes Russell Hornsby, Bitsie Tulloch, Silas Weir Mitchell, Sasha Roiz, Reggie Lee, Bree Turner, and Claire Coffee.
Though it wasn't an instant hit when it premiered on NBC in 2011, Grimm built a loyal fanbase over six seasons and earned favorable reviews. Blending cop drama with horror, the series is both engaging and entertaining, even if its parallels between fairy-tale villains and real-world issues can feel a bit on the nose. It also earned two Creative Arts Emmy nominations for Outstanding Stunt Coordination. If you're a fan of shows like Supernatural or The X-Files, this is a must-watch.

2. 10 Things I Hate About You (2009–2010)
Developed by Carter Covington, this late-2000s sitcom is based on the 1999 teen rom-com of the same name, which itself was inspired by Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. The series follows sisters Kat (Lindsey Shaw) and Bianca (Meaghan Martin) as they move from Ohio to California, navigating high school drama, romance, and their overprotective dad, Dr. Walter Stratford (Larry Miller). Ethan Peck, Dana Davis, and Kyle Kaplan round out the main cast.
While it may not be as iconic as the film, the 10 Things I Hate About You TV series was well-received when it aired on ABC Family, setting a network record with its premiere. Critics noted its reliance on familiar tropes, but that doesn't stop it from being a fun, nostalgic watch. Canceled after just one season, it remains an underrated gem that's perfect for a quick binge. For more short but sweet series, see our roundup of perfect Netflix shows under 20 episodes.
3. Hanna (2019–2021)
Inspired by the 2011 film of the same name, Hanna is an action drama created by David Farr. Esme Creed-Miles stars as the titular 15-year-old, who was secretly engineered by a shadowy government organization to be a super-soldier. Hunted by a ruthless CIA agent (Mireille Enos), Hanna must use her extraordinary abilities to survive. The cast also includes Joel Kinnaman, Noah Taylor, Dermot Mulroney, and Ray Liotta.
The first season received mixed reviews, but the show's quality improved dramatically in later seasons, with Season 2 earning near-universal acclaim. It's a gritty, exciting series that reinvents its big-screen predecessor while adding new layers of complexity. All three seasons are available on Prime Video, and the show earned three nominations at the inaugural Critics' Choice Super Awards in 2021. If you're in the mood for a thrilling ride, Hanna delivers. For more binge-worthy thrillers, check out why Colin Farrell's chilling miniseries The North Water is a perfect choice.
Whether you're into dark fantasy, nostalgic teen comedy, or high-stakes action, these three shows offer something for everyone. So grab your remote and start streaming before July 27, 2026—you won't regret it.
