Looking for something new to binge-watch on Prime Video? If your weekend plans consist of kicking back on the sofa and racing through a new show, you're in luck: Amazon's streaming service is home to a ton of content, with new shows and movies joining the platform all the time.
If you'd prefer not to waste your weekend scrolling through Prime Video, you're in the right place. I've checked through everything new on Prime Video in January to find a handful of choices that are worthy of your time.
Below, you can find my three new to Prime Video streaming recommendations for the weekend, including a brand-new Prime original thriller with a "Game of Thrones" star.
3 new-to-Prime Video shows to stream now
'Fallout' season 2
Yes, I know "Fallout" season 2 isn't "new" in the strictest sense, but with the season finale due to drop in just a couple of weeks (and the show regularly jumping back up to the top of Prime Video's streaming charts), I think it's only fair to highlight the returning video game adaptation as an option: six episodes is definitely enough material for binge-watching, in my eyes!
Season 2 of this darkly funny sci-fi series picks up in the aftermath of the first, and continues to follow our Wasteland wanderers — Lucy (Ella Purnell), The Ghoul/Cooper Howard (Walton Goggins), and Maximus (Aaron Moten) — on their respective journeys, while also introducing us to the iconic New Vegas, and members of its various factions.

'Steal'
"Steal" is a great watch for anyone looking to liven up their weekend, as it's a high-octane adventure from the jump. In this brand-new British crime thriller, a gang of armed thieves waltzes into the office of investment firm, Lochmill Capital, and forces best mates Zara (Sophie Turner) and Luke (Archie Madekwe) to execute their demands: the transfer of billions of pounds' worth of pension funds over to them.
Who would steal all that money, and why? Well, that's what DCI Rhys (Jacob Fortune-Lloyd) wants to know. But, as a recently relapsed gambling addict, he's grappling with this new investigation and trying to keep his money trouble at bay while navigating the hidden agendas and dark secrets at the heart of this crime. If you're looking for fast-moving, engaging TV this weekend, you'll want to stream all six episodes of "Steal" ASAP.

'The Night Manager' season 2
Who would've thought that a series would return after nigh on a decade and still deliver another gripping installment all these years later? Well, that's exactly what "The Night Manager" season 2 has done: reunite us with Tom Hiddleston's Jonathan Pine for another compelling installment of this undercover spy series.
After that first mission saw him thwart Hugh Laurie's international arms dealer, Richard Roper, Pine has been leading a new life as Alex Goodwin, a low-level MI6 officer working at a surveillance unit in London. But when one of Roper's old comrades appears, he leaps back into action and, after more tragedy, he heads off on another dangerous mission which will see him rubbing shoulders with another deadly foe: Colombian businessman Teddy Dos Santos (Diego Calva).
With the reluctant aid of Roxana Bolaños (Camila Morrone), Pine adopts another new identity and infiltrates Teddy's operation. There's just a couple of episodes left of this new season, and with both available on Prime, now's the perfect opportunity to get caught up before the big finale.
