In over three years at Collider, senior author Jake has now penned over 2500 articles covering a wide range of TV and film for the resources, lists, utilities, news, and interview teams. Alongside interviewing stars such as Selin Hizli, Rose Ayling-Ellis, Harlan Coben, and Chelsea Peretti, Jake was lucky enough to visit the set of Aardman and Netflix's Wallace and Gromit: A Vengeance Most Fowl in 2024, getting the chance to chat with four-time Academy Award winner Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham. Jake has also worked for other publications, including Agents of Fandom.
March has already been a great month for Prime Video subscribers, as a brand-new screen adaptation of a classic literary tale has taken the streamer by storm. Able to overcome competition from the likes of Fallout Season 2 and the return of Ben Watkins' Cross, Young Sherlock, based on the young adult thriller novel series Young Sherlock Holmes by Andrew Lane, immediately topped the Prime Video streaming charts in the U.S. Boasting the burgeoning acting talent of Hero Fiennes Tiffin and the directing prowess of veteran Guy Ritchie, Young Sherlock is a hit. But for those who have already finished with their binge of the series, what should you watch next? To help you decide, here's a look at three Prime Video shows you need to binge this weekend.

1 'Scarpetta' (2026)
Rotten Tomatoes: 71% | IMDb: 5.7/10
The hottest new arrival on Prime Video this week is the perfect place to begin this list of recommendations. Scarpetta, based on Patricia Cornwell's book series of the same name, follows the brilliant titular forensic pathologist, portrayed by Nicole Kidman, as she travels to various locations solving improbable crimes and puzzling mysteries using her detailed skillset.
Praised for "captivating" performances in Aidan Kelley's review for Collider, Scarpetta's biggest highlight has to be its star-studded cast. Kidman alone is enough to lead a series, but throw in the likes of Jamie Lee Curtis, Bobby Cannavale, Ariana DeBose, and Simon Baker, and a recipe for a streaming hit is born. Already rivaling Young Sherlock for the Prime Video crown, join the rest of the world in binge-watching Scarpetta.
2 'A Small Light' (2023)
Rotten Tomatoes: 100% | IMDb: 8.4/10
At a time when the world seems constantly frightening, this series is the perfect reminder that light pushes through even in the darkest times. A Small Light follows the life of Miep Gies (Bel Powley), a Dutch woman most famous for sheltering Anne Frank (Billie Boulet) during the Holocaust for more than two years.
To take such a powerful true story and turn it into eight phenomenal episodes is no easy task, but to do so with such delicate respect for the real people at its heart is even more remarkable. A Small Light is one of the best historical series of this decade and boasts a terrific selection of performances, led by Powley in a turn that earned her a Critics' Choice Award nomination.
3 'Clean Slate' (2025)
Rotten Tomatoes: 87% | IMDb: 6.6/10
For something different this weekend, why not try a series that was cruelly cancelled way before its time? That series is Clean Slate, which follows Desiree Slate (Laverne Cox) as she returns to her hometown in Alabama to reunite with her estranged father, Harry (George Wallace). However, the last time Harry saw Desiree, she was living as a man.
As trans voices continue to be silenced, help this gem of a series let its voice be heard. There has been no official reason given for the show's cancellation, and it doesn't take a genius to see why a series like this could face the ax quicker than its contemporaries in a divisive political climate. A smart, funny sitcom with plenty of important stuff to say, don't let Clean Slate pass you by.
