Streaming services are awash with content, but it's really hard to find the ones that are truly worth your time. Thankfully, Prime Video's current top 10 has some pretty strong contenders that deserve attention.

One of them, a gripping crime thriller, is a must-see for anyone who loves a disturbing plot. Also on the list is a new crime comedy show starring Margo Martindale, and a war drama that made the top 10 after its trailer for its second season made headlines. Now, if you're wondering what to watch next, here are the best shows to watch right now on Prime Video.

This article is based on the top 10 shows on Prime Video as of Wednesday, December 11.

Sometimes you can't go wrong with a crime thriller, especially one that is unsettling and emotionally charged. Prime Video recently delivered “Cross,” based on the best-selling novel by James Patterson. There is already a 2012 film adaptation, “Alex Cross,” which failed to make an impression. That is why it is refreshing to see a TV show not only succeed but dominate the number one spot, proving the potential of this story if it is made correctly.

“Cross” is a gripping crime thriller centered on Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge), a brilliant D.C. homicide detective and forensic psychologist. In the show, Cross tracks down a relentless serial killer whose gruesome crimes terrorize the city. With the help of his loyal partner, John Sampson (Isaiah Mustafa), Cross is determined to bring the killer to justice before too many lives are lost. However, a shadowy figure from Cross's past emerges and threatens to undermine everything he holds dear.

Prime Video's new crime comedy show has already taken the #2 spot after landing on the platform on December 6. For those looking for something a little lighter this week, “The Sticky,” a bizarre and thrilling look at the infamous Canadian maple syrup heist (one of the strangest crimes in history), is a good choice.

“The Sticky” follows maple syrup farmer Ruth Landry (Margo Martindale) as she seeks revenge when the authorities threaten to take everything on her farm. Burning to fight back, Ruth teams up with mobster Mike (Chris Diamantopoulos) and security guard Remy (Guillaume Cyr). They plot an ambitious multi-million dollar heist to steal Quebec's maple syrup reserves.

Some shows return to the top 10 months (or even years) after their initial release. Such resurgence often coincides with the buzz surrounding a new season, and “SAS: Rogue Heroes” is just such a case. The recently released trailer for Season 2 may have rekindled that interest and attracted new viewers as well. Many viewers may be rewatching the show to revisit it (which makes sense given its 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes).

“Rogue Heroes” is a war drama about the origins of one of the world's most elite armies, the Special Air Service (SAS). Set in World War II and based on the book by Ben McIntyre, the film dramatizes the formation of the British Army's Special Air Service (SAS). The film portrays a group of maverick soldiers who, fed up with traditional military tactics, decide to form an unconventional unit to carry out daring missions behind enemy lines.
