As the streaming wars continue to heat up, Prime Video is making a bold move to stay ahead of the competition. The platform has just announced a slew of new shows and games that are sure to get viewers excited.
Prime Video is stepping up its game with new shows and games
First up is a prequel to the hit movie Legally Blonde, aptly titled Elle. The show follows Elle Woods in high school, giving us a glimpse into the life experiences that shaped her into the iconic young woman we know and love. With Reese Witherspoon on board as executive producer, we can expect great things from this series.
Next, Prime Video is bringing us Pop Culture Jeopardy!, a brand-new twist on the classic quiz show. This time around, contestants will be playing in teams of three, answering questions on everything from alternative rock to The Avengers, Broadway to MMA, and Gen Z to Zendaya. It’s going to be a wild ride!
But that’s not all - Prime Video is also introducing Buy It Now, a new series where entrepreneurs with innovative products try to win a place in the bespoke Buy It Now store featured on Amazon.com and within the Prime app. Hosted by JB Smoove, this show is sure to be a hit with fans of Shark Tank and The Pitch.
And if that’s not enough, Prime Video is also giving us Wish List Games, a high-energy game show where contestants play for the chance to win everything on their Amazon Wish List, totaling up to $25,000. With Nick Cannon hosting, this show is going to be a real treat.

But what about scripted content, you ask? Fear not, dear viewers, for Prime Video has got you covered. The platform has ordered a live-action series based on the Marvel comic Spider-Man Noir, starring Nicolas Cage as an aging and down-on-his-luck private investigator in 1930s New York. This one’s going to be a real nail-biter!
And let’s not forget about Mr. & Mrs. Smith, which has been renewed for a second season. This reimagining of the 2005 film stars Donald Glover and Maya Erskine as John and Jane Smith, and we can’t wait to see what they get up to next.
