Everything leaving Amazon Prime Video in October

What’s the most valuable part of your Amazon Prime Video subscription? For some users, it’s the ability to get packages within a few days. But movie and TV lovers know that the heart of Prime Video features a wealth of films and shows that can brighten almost anyone’s day. Prime Video is a bit behind its competitors when it comes to originals, but it’s ahead of the game with its curated content. The bad news is that some of these shows and films are on their way out the door as part of the normal churn. The good news is that you still have time to catch your favorites. Just consult our list of everything leaving Amazon Prime Video in October and what we know of for early November, and plan accordingly.

Still can’t shake that fear of missing out? Check our other monthly roundups of Everything leaving Hulu and Everything leaving Netflix and make sure you get them in before they’re gone.

94 %
7.5/10
r 127m
Genre Comedy, Drama, Romance
Stars Paul Giamatti, Thomas Haden Church, Virginia Madsen
Directed by Alexander Payne
Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church are a winning comedic duo in Sideways. Giamatti plays a struggling writer, Miles Raymond, who reunites with his friend, Jack Cole (Church), for a trip through wine country. Much to Miles’ consternation, Jack is more interested in romancing a woman named Stephanie (Sandra Oh) rather than focusing on the trip or his own impending wedding to another woman. Meanwhile, Jack feels a strong mutual attraction with a waitress, Maya Randall (Virginia Madsen). However, the lies of both Miles and Jack threaten to derail their new relationships.

Everything coming to Max (formerly HBO Max) in May 2024
Jean Smart stands next to a caddy on a golf course in Hacks.

April was a serious month for HBO and Max. The channel and streamer wrapped up season 2 of its excellent crime drama Tokyo Vice and premiered an unsettling political thriller, The Sympathizer, starring recent Oscar-winner Robert Downey Jr. In addition to those two shows, Max hosted the streaming debut of The Zone of Interest, one of the most unsettling and controversial Holocaust movies ever made.

So it's not a surprise that Max is going to lighten up a little. Sure, there's the odd devastating drama like The Iron Claw with Zac Efron, but there's also the debut of Emmy-winning comedy Hacks' newest season. For those YA fans out there, John Green's Turtles All the Way Down finally makes its way to small screens worldwide. There's something for everyone this month on HBO and Max, so read below to find out something that suits your interests.

The best hidden gems on Netflix right now
Ahn Eun-jin in Goodbye Earth.

Have you ever come across a show on Netflix that was so particular to your taste that it felt like the series was made for you? If so, chances are good that it only got a single season on Netflix. No one has enough time to watch every series on Netflix, and the vast majority of them come and go with such speed that it's almost like they were never there at all.

This roundup of the best hidden gems on Netflix is dedicated to finding shows that deserve a second look, or at least an elevated push on Netflix's algorithm. This month, we're putting the spotlight on Goodbye Earth, a new Korean drama that dropped this week, as well as a nature documentary called Our Living World and a sitcom that was one of Netflix's one-season wonders: The Good Cop. You can find these three and more below in our roundup of the best hidden gems on Netflix.

Check out this great movie before it leaves Amazon Prime Video next week
Multiple actors as Mr. Blue, Green, Grey, & Brown discuss how to leave the subway tunnels in The Taking of Pelham 123.

Among the many frustrating things about the modern streaming landscape is that, in addition to not knowing what to watch, it's also difficult to know when you'll actually be able to see it. Although Amazon Prime Video has plenty of great movies, those movies come to the streamer and leave it seemingly at random because of complicated rights agreements that no regular person should ever care about or understand.

It can be hard to make sure you catch a great movie before it leaves, which is why you should definitely make time to watch The Taking of Pelham One Two Three before it leaves Prime Video at the end of April. The movie, which tells the story of a MTA train heist in 1970s New York, holds up remarkably well 50 years later. Here are three reasons you should check it out.
It's a perfectly paced heist movie
