Prime Video September 2024: Top Picks & New Arrivals

Are you ready to say goodbye to Reacher? Amazon's hit series wraps up its fourth season in September, but don't worry—there's a spin-off ready to fill that void. And that's just one of many exciting additions coming to Prime Video next month. Let's dive into the best picks to make the most of your subscription.

First up, if you're in the mood for something cozy and wonderfully weird as summer fades, check out Over the Garden Wall. This animated gem only ran for one season on Cartoon Network, but it packs a punch with its quirky charm and just the right amount of darkness. Think Adventure Time meets a twilight fairy tale. It's perfect for that summer-to-fall transition. After being pulled from HBO Max years ago, it's now available on Prime Video, and you can also grab the Blu-ray if you prefer owning all 10 episodes.

For fans of Jon Favreau and good food, 2014's Chef is a must-watch. This heartwarming film about food, family, and following your passion is so good it inspired Favreau to create a docuseries on the culinary world. Our review called it "a fun film about family, food, and the importance of staying true to yourself. Just make sure you eat before watching this one." Trust us, you'll be craving a grilled cheese afterward.

If you're in the mood for some classic action-horror, the 2004 Van Helsing is back. Starring Hugh Jackman and Kate Beckinsale, it's a nostalgic trip to when you could just throw Wolverine into a vampire movie and it just worked. Beckinsale had just solidified her vampire queen status with Underworld, making this a double dose of genre goodness. It's a perfect fall rewatch.

Anime fans, rejoice! Demon Slayer is finally coming to Prime Video. With four seasons and a movie under its belt, it's a great time to start this epic tale. Set in early 20th century Japan, it follows a boy who becomes a demon hunter to save his sister. The Mugen Train movie is also dropping, so you can catch up on most of the story quickly.

Now, about that Reacher spin-off—it's called Neagley, and all eight episodes drop on the same day as the Reacher finale. It centers on Frances Neagley, a private investigator looking into a suspicious death. Jack Reacher himself, Alan Ritchson, will guest star in a supporting role. It's a smart way to keep the universe alive.

Also intriguing is The Love Hypothesis, based on Ali Hazelwood's bestselling novel. We haven't seen it yet, but the premise is promising. A scientist and a professor fake a relationship? Count us in.

So, what are you most excited to watch on Prime Video this September? Will you be checking out the Reacher spin-off, or are you more into the cozy vibes of Over the Garden Wall? Let us know in the comments!
