Lately, Prime Video’s top 10 shows list has been a revolving door of hits, with buzzy new shows climbing the ranks while staples like "Gen V" and "The Summer I Turned Pretty" keep their grip near the top. It’s a quick snapshot of what everyone’s streaming, but not every popular pick lives up to the buzz.

To separate the must-watch from the merely trending, I’ve rounded up three titles that truly stand out in the Prime Video top 10 shows list. This week’s strongest contenders include Harlan Coben's latest mystery thriller and a docuseries about basketball legend Allen Iverson.

'Harlan Coben's Lazarus'

Craving a fresh Harlan Coben thriller? Amazon has one teed up, and it’s a tangled, eerie ride you won’t want to miss. Sam Claflin stars as Joel “Laz” Lazarus, a forensic psychologist dragged back into his family’s dark past after his father’s suspicious suicide.

Strange visions, cold-case murders and decades-old family secrets collide as Laz unravels mysteries both personal and deadly. With Bill Nighy as his late father and Alexandra Roach in a pivotal role, this limited series promises a twisty ride that’s equal parts brain-teaser and spine-tingler.

This three-part docuseries delves deep into the life and legacy of a man who didn’t just play the game — he changed it. It traces Allen Iverson’s rise from Hampton, Virginia, to NBA superstardom, capturing the swagger, grit and heart that made him a cultural icon.

With rare access and candid interviews from family, friends and basketball legends, the series peels back the layers of the icon known as “The Answer,” revealing the humanity behind the tattoos, the crossover and the headlines.

'Gen V'

Watch On

The finale of "Gen V" season 2 closes its sophomore year at Godolkin with blood, chaos and a cliffhanger that feels more like a teaser for the final season of "The Boys" than a setup for a third semester.

Mind-controlled deans, “V-One” immortality experiments and love triangles that go sideways ... it's a lot for Marie, Jordan and Emma to deal with and they're doing it like pros. With Thomas Godolkin pulling strings from a hyperbaric chamber and loyalties constantly shifting, "Gen V" proves it’s just as wild, vicious and addictive as the series that spawned it.
