Amazon Prime Video Top 10 Shows and Movies: New and Trending Today, August 1

Maybe sending four teenage girls after a rage-filled Navy SEAL wasn’t such a good idea. Chris Pratt’s The Terminal retained its No. 1 spot over the weekend, despite competition from the new sci-fi series Paper Girls. In fact, The Terminal List can now boast that it’s been No. 1 for a full month, having taken the spot since its debut on July 1. Paper Girls sits at No. 2, bumping everything else down a notch in Amazon Prime Video’s Top 10 movies and shows list. The real test for The Terminal List will come later this week, when Prime Video debuts four new releases, including the films Thirteen Lives and Licorice Pizza. Plus, a whole lot of classic films just arrived on Prime Video; here’s the full list. 

Below we’re listing the Top 10 shows and movies on Amazon Prime Video and also letting you know which ones are good. We’ll also list off what’s coming next to Amazon Prime Video in the near future so you know what will be on the Top 10 list soon.
