‘Slow Horses’ (2022–present)

The acerbic spy drama returns on Wednesday, September 24 to Apple TV+. Based on Mick Herron’s ‘Slough House’ novels and developed for television by screenwriter Will Smith, the series follows MI5’s dumping-ground unit led by the shambling yet razor-sharp Jackson Lamb. Gary Oldman plays Lamb, with Jack Lowden as River Cartwright, Kristin Scott Thomas as second-in-command Diana Taverner, and Jonathan Pryce as River’s grandfather David. The show has featured direction across its run from filmmakers like James Hawes and Jeremy Lovering, with music by Daniel Pemberton and a title theme co-written and performed by Mick Jagger.

Across its seasons, ‘Slow Horses’ adapts Herron’s books to tell contained, propulsive operations that keep Slough House’s “slow horses” entangled with MI5’s power players. Recent runs have drawn on novels including ‘Dead Lions’, ‘Real Tigers’, and ‘Spook Street’, weaving in recurring ensemble members such as Sophie Okonedo and others. The new set of episodes arriving on Wednesday, September 24 continues the show’s pattern of pulling a single book’s conspiracy through tightly plotted, character-driven espionage.

‘The Savant’ (2025)

Premiering Friday, September 26 on Apple TV+, this limited crime thriller stars Jessica Chastain and is created by Melissa James Gibson. Inspired by journalist Andrea Stanley’s 2019 feature about an undercover investigator, the series centers on a woman who infiltrates online hate groups to disrupt violent plots before they unfold. Chastain leads the cast opposite Nnamdi Asomugha, with executive producers including Chastain, Gibson, and documentary filmmaker Matthew Heineman; Janusz Kamiński serves as cinematographer, bringing a sharp, high-contrast look to the surveillance-heavy story.

‘The Savant’ adapts real-world methods—deep-cover personas, digital forensics, and patient social-engineering—into a narrative that moves between domestic life and clandestine operations. The Apple TV+ miniseries arriving Friday, September 26 is positioned as a contained story, focusing on a single investigator’s campaign to penetrate toxic online networks while balancing the personal fallout those choices create.

‘Hotel Costiera’ (2025)

Arriving Wednesday, September 24, this Prime Video original is a sleek Italian-set mystery starring Jesse Williams as Daniel De Luca, a half-Italian former U.S. Marine who now works as a fixer at a luxury property on the Amalfi Coast. When the hotel owner’s daughter, Alice, disappears, Daniel is drawn into a web of lies that runs from glamorous guests to local power brokers. The cast includes Maria Chiara Giannetta and Sam Haygarth among others.

Created as a high-stakes, sun-drenched thriller that plays with the contrast between postcard views and dark undercurrents, ‘Hotel Costiera’ blends missing-person investigation with action beats and undercover work. Amazon Prime’s Wednesday, September 24 debut kicks off Daniel’s search, using the hotel’s elite clientele, staff secrets, and coastal terrain as both backdrop and engine for the unfolding case.

‘American Horror Story’ (2011–present)

The long-running horror anthology created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk lands on Wednesday, September 24 on Prime. Each season tells a self-contained tale with its own setting and theme—ranging from haunted houses and asylums to covens, carnivals, hotels, and beyond—while often re-employing a core troupe in new roles. Across its run, the series has featured performers such as Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Lily Rabe, Denis O’Hare, and, in early seasons, Jessica Lange.

Built as a television repertory company for horror, ‘American Horror Story’ has also brought in a broad creative bench of writers, directors, and composers, with César Dávila-Irizarry and Charlie Clouser’s iconic theme and Mac Quayle’s scoring shaping its soundscape. With seasons functioning as stand-alone stories, Amazon Prime viewers jumping in on Wednesday, September 24 can pick a theme that suits their taste and watch a complete arc from start to finish.

‘The Good Place’ (2016–2020)

Hitting Friday, September 26 on Prime, Michael Schur’s four-season fantasy-comedy follows Eleanor Shellstrop, a recently deceased Arizonan who wakes up in a utopian afterlife and realizes she wasn’t exactly a model citizen. Kristen Bell stars as Eleanor, with Ted Danson as the neighborhood architect Michael and D’Arcy Carden as the not-a-robot guide Janet; the ensemble includes William Jackson Harper as moral philosopher Chidi Anagonye, Jameela Jamil as socialite Tahani Al-Jamil, and Manny Jacinto as Jacksonville DJ Jason Mendoza.

Produced by Universal Television with Schur as showrunner, ‘The Good Place’ pairs brisk 22-minute episodes with serialized storytelling, weaving ethics lessons and narrative twists into character-driven comedy. The series comes to Amazon Prime on Friday, September 26, presenting a complete beginning-to-end story that moves from afterlife mix-ups to big-hearted meditations on what it means to try to be better.
