The best shows to binge-watch on Prime Video this weekend, February 20–22, 2026, include top trending hit series and critically acclaimed hidden gems that you can easily complete in just a few sittings.

These three binge-worthy series are currently the most-watched Prime Video shows in the U.S. and around the world right now. All original and newly released, you don't want to miss out on the most viral Prime Video shows that everyone will be watching this weekend.

Beast Games

Beast Games season 2 is well underway and has been one of the most-viewed Prime Video shows of 2026 since its January debut. The binge-worthy series has already released nine of its ten season 2 episodes, with its season finale set to drop on Wednesday, February 25.

Beast Games, which has already been renewed for season 3, is one of the strongest new reality competition shows on any streaming service or cable network. Season 2 features a collaboration with Jeff Probst of Survivor and raises the competitive bar with an epic "strong versus smart" showdown.

56 Days

Released just days ago, 56 Days is a new romantic thriller/murder mystery series that has taken Prime Video's streaming charts by storm this week. The series is based on a bestselling novel about an intense yet toxic relationship that results in one of them being killed.

56 Days stars Dove Cameron and Avan Jogia as the doomed lovers Oliver and Ciara. The series keeps viewers on the edge of their seats, built on suspense and a whodunnit guessing game of who the true killer is, centered around a major twist. If you enjoyed Netflix's popular thriller series His & Hers, 56 Days is a great choice to binge on Prime Video this weekend.

Cross

If you're a Reacher fan who can't wait for season 4 to premiere later this year, Cross is the best show you can watch on Prime Video in the meantime. The franchise just debuted its second season with a three-part premiere and dropped its fourth of eight episodes this week.

Like Reacher, Cross is based on a celebrated crime thriller book series and is built to become another flagship franchise for Prime Video. Led by Aldis Hodge, who plays the brilliant yet troubled detective Alex Cross, Cross has both action and psychological thriller elements that together make one of the most binge-worthy and top trending series worth watching this weekend on Prime Video.
