Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat

Jury Duty was a breath of fresh air in reality TV when it first premiered back in 2023, built on a simple yet comedically genius premise that essentially set the stage for a real-life version of The Truman Show. After viewers fell in love with the unassuming protagonist Ronald in season 1, the team behind the 5-time Emmy-nominated series returned in 2026 with Company Retreat. Featuring a brand new main character, Anthony, the series expands outside the fictional courtroom to a completely made-up company retreat just outside of Los Angeles, California.

Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat consists of just eight episodes, with two additional bonus episodes that bridge the two seasons together. Part of the fun as a viewer is being in on the joke with the rest of the cast, who Anthony believes are just regular people at his new temp job. What makes Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat special is the candid responses from Anthony, especially when it comes to the friendships he makes and the often unbelievable situations he's placed in. Jury Duty is always worth a watch on Prime Video.

Sterling Point

A week after its debut, Sterling Point continues to be the most viral new show on Prime Video, building a huge online presence and making its star actor, Ella Rubin, one of the biggest rising stars in Hollywood. The series is more elevated than your typical YA teen drama, earning a near-perfect Certified Fresh 91% Rotten Tomatoes score and an equally strong 87% audience score. Rated TV-MA, this series is crafted for all demographics and is considered much more rooted in reality than other popular, often melodramatic, coming-of-age dramas.

Sterling Point follows Annie Jacobson, played by Rubin, who discovers that she and her twin brother, Connor, inherited a lake island from her late grandfather. She travels from NYC to the Canadian island called Sterling Point, only to meet an unexpected guest named Ramona, who reveals a buried family secret that changes both of their lives forever. Sterling Point is being praised for its natural tension and organic, even nostalgic, drama, as opposed to relying heavily on genre tropes such as murder mystery and soap opera.

Reacher

Reacher season 4 finally arrived on Prime Video earlier this week with its 3-episode premiere and, unsurprisingly, is once again the streamer's most-watched show worldwide. Starring Alan Ritchson as a retired military police officer turned drifter vigilante, Reacher season 4 takes place in Philadelphia as Reacher intervenes against an apparent bomber on a late-night subway train. After a shocking development, Reacher finds himself at the center of several crosshairs, all of whom take a special interest in the woman on the train.

Reacher has been a bona fide hit on Prime Video since its first season dropped in 2022 and continues to be one of the most critically acclaimed and popular shows on the platform. New episodes of Reacher season 4 will be released every Wednesday until September 16, so expect the action thriller series to hold Prime's #1 spot for the foreseeable future. With its sharp visuals, dazzling fight sequences, compelling story, and strong supporting cast around Ritchson, Reacher simply can't be missed this weekend on Prime Video.
