Prime Video is the place to be for great crime stories this month. In March, they’ve added some new movies and shows, but three titles stood out to me above all else.
We’ve got some excellent new releases coming up, including a new Nicole Kidman series and a reality series about three dynamic judges. All three picks fall under the crime genre, but they’re all very different.
Tribunal Justice season 3
Watch On
When: March 2
Creator: Judy Sheindlin
Cast: Tanya Acker, Patricia DiMango and Adam Levy
Episode count: 210
Judge Judy herself is the creator behind Tribunal Justice, an addictive Prime Video reality series which centers on a panel of three legal professionals as collectively adjudicate and debate real cases in Los Angeles.
Tanya Acker, Patricia DiMango and Adam Levy are the team carefully examining each case and they don’t often agree, so if you like all the drama of reality TV, you’ll certainly find it here.
Scarpetta
Watch On
When: March 11
Creator: Liz Sarnoff
Cast: Nicole Kidman, Jamie Lee Curtis, Ariana DeBose, Bobby Cannavale, Simon Baker, Rosy McEwen, Jake Cannavale
Episode count: 8
Scarpetta is a new Prime Video original starring an ensemble cast. It’s an adaptation of Patricia Cornwell’s book series, and follows forensic pathologist Kay Scarpetta as she unravels mysteries and solve crimes across Florida, Virginia, and South Carolina.
Nicole Kidman leads the cast in the titular role and is joined by Jamie Lee Curtis as Scarpetta’s older sister Dorothy, Ariana DeBose as Dorothy’s daughter, and Bobby Cannavale as a former detective. I’m very excited to see these huge names adapting such a beloved series, and I have high hopes for this.
Deadloch season 2
Watch On
When: March 20
Creators: Kate McCartney and Kate McLennan
Cast: Kate Box, Madeleine Sami, Alicia Gardiner, Nina Oyama
Episodes: 16
Deadloch returns for season 2 and if you haven’t seen this excellent series, I highly recommend catching up. Set in the sleepy settlement of Deadloch, on Tasmania’s coastline, we follow two female detectives, Dulcie Collins and Eddie Redcliffe, who reluctantly take on a case together.
Why reluctant, you might ask? Well, they couldn’t be more different, often with hilarious results. If you like dark comedy with your crime drama, then Deadloch will be right up your alley. They’ll be taking on a new case together in season 2, and I’m sure I’ll be on the edge of my seat again.
