It's been a wild couple of weeks on Prime Video, with Mike Flanagan's Carrie adaptation holding the top spot since its debut. But the streaming landscape is about to shift, as a major fan-favorite series makes its long-awaited comeback. If you're planning your weekend viewing for October 24-25, you'll want to check out these three standout shows that offer something for every mood.
The Terminal List: Revenge Returns with a Vengeance
After more than four years, The Terminal List is finally back for a second season, and it's poised to dominate watchlists everywhere. Starring Chris Pratt as Navy SEAL James Reece, the series picks up with Reece's relentless quest for justice after the brutal murder of his family. Created by David DiGilio and based on Jack Carr's novel, the show has become a cornerstone of Prime Video's action lineup.
Season 2 promises to double down on what made the first season a hit, with all eight episodes dropping at once for your binge-watching pleasure. Critics are already praising its unapologetic intensity, and fans of the franchise—including the prequel The Terminal List: Dark Wolf—will find plenty to love. If you're in the mood for high-octane thrills, this is your pick.
Gilmore Girls: The Ultimate Fall Comfort Watch
There's no better time than October to revisit the charming town of Stars Hollow. Gilmore Girls remains the gold standard for cozy, fast-talking dramedies, following the lives of Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Rory (Alexis Bledel) as they navigate family drama, romance, and the quirks of their neighbors. With its warm autumnal aesthetic and witty dialogue, it's no wonder the show has found a whole new generation of fans.
Over seven seasons, the series became a cultural touchstone, and its popularity has only grown since its original run. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer, spending a weekend with Lorelai, Rory, Sookie, and Luke is the perfect way to embrace the season. Just don't mention the Netflix revival—some things are better left in the past.
Them: Horror That Haunts Your Dreams
If you prefer your October with a side of terror, Them is the anthology series you need. Created by Little Marvin, the show explores different horror stories within a shared universe, offering a fresh take on the genre with each season. While the first season had its ups and downs, the second season was a revelation, earning a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes.
For fans of American Horror Story, Them delivers the same kind of skin-crawling suspense and social commentary. It's been lurking in Prime Video's catalog for five years, but now is the perfect time to dive in and get into the Halloween spirit. Just be prepared to sleep with the lights on.
These three shows offer a little something for everyone, whether you're in the mood for action, heartwarming drama, or pure terror. And if you're looking for more ideas, check out our top picks for the weekend or explore other underrated Prime Video gems. Happy streaming!
