If you’re a Prime Video subscriber, it’s hard to look past one show as the must-watch title on the streamer at the moment. After a shaky fourth season that received mixed reviews from most critics and audiences, The Boysreturned to form with an explosive Season 5 opener early last month. Since then, weekly releases have seen Karl Urban‘s Billy Butcher, Jack Quaid‘s Hughie Campbell, and more face a world dominated by Antony Starr‘s Homelander as twists and turns keep many millions of viewers gripped.
Called “one of the show’s best” seasons in Nate Richard‘s review for Collider, the final outing in Eric Kripke‘s superhero series is certainly a must-watch right now. However, it isn’t the only show proving popular on Prime Video, with an 8-part Dexter replacement quietly continuing its streaming run almost two months after its debut. The show in question is Scarpetta, based on a book series by Patricia Cornwell, which debuted on March 11 and became an instant hit on streaming, topping Amazon’s most-watched series list in its first week.
The show boasts an impressive collection of talent both in front of and behind the screen, with veteran director David Gordon Greenworking on a trio of Season 1 episodes. The show’s ensemble includes Nicole Kidman, Jamie Lee Curtis, Bobby Cannavale, Ariana DeBose, and Simon Baker, among many other notable faces. After its continued streaming success, Scarpetta has now hit an impressive new milestone. At the time of writing, the series has passed 50 days on the Prime Video streaming charts, as per FlixPatrol.
Collider Exclusive · TV Medicine Quiz Which Fictional Hospital Would You Work Best In? The Pitt · ER · Grey’s Anatomy · House · Scrubs
Five hospitals. Five completely different ways medicine goes sideways on television — brutal, chaotic, romantic, brilliant, and ridiculous. Only one of them is the ward your instincts were built for. Eight questions will figure out exactly where you belong.
🚨The Pitt
🏥ER
💉Grey’s
🔬House
🩺Scrubs
01
A critical patient comes through the door. What’s your first instinct? Medicine under pressure reveals who you actually are.
02
Why did you go into medicine in the first place? The honest answer says more about you than the one you’d give in an interview.
03
What do you actually want from the people you work with? Who you want beside you under pressure is who you are.
04
You lose a patient you fought hard to save. How do you carry it? Every doctor who’s worked a long shift has had to answer this question.
05
How would your colleagues describe the way you work? Your reputation on the floor is usually more accurate than your self-image.
06
How do you feel about hospital protocol and procedure? Every institution has rules. What you do with them is a choice.
07
What does this job cost you personally? Nobody works in medicine without paying a price. What’s yours?
08
At the end of a long shift, what keeps you coming back? The answer to this question is the most honest thing about you.
Your Assignment Has Been Made You Belong In…
Your answers have pointed to one fictional hospital above all others. This is the ward your instincts, your temperament, and your particular brand of dysfunction were built for.
Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center
The Pitt
You are built for the most unsparing version of emergency medicine television has ever shown — one that puts you inside a single fifteen-hour shift and doesn’t let you look away.
You need your work to be real, not romanticised — meaning over drama, honesty over aesthetics.
You find purpose inside the work itself, not in the chaos surrounding it.
You’ve made peace with the fact that this job takes from you constantly, and gives back in ways that are harder to name.
Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center demands exactly that kind of person — and you would not want to be anywhere else.
County General Hospital, Chicago
ER
You are the person who keeps the whole floor running — not the most brilliant in the room, but possibly the most essential.
You show up, do the work, absorb the losses, and come back the next day without needing the job to be anything other than what it is.
You care about patients as individual human beings, not as cases to solve or dramas to live through.
You believe in the system even when it fails you — and you understand that emergency medicine is about holding the line just long enough.
ER is television about endurance. You have it.
Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital, Seattle
Grey’s Anatomy
You came to medicine with your whole self — your ambition, your emotions, your relationships, your history — and you have never quite managed to leave any of it at the door.
You feel things fully and form deep attachments to the people you work with.
Your personal and professional lives are permanently, chaotically entangled — and that entanglement drives both your greatest disasters and your most remarkable saves.
You understand that extraordinary medicine often happens at the intersection of clinical skill and profound human connection.
It’s messy at Grey Sloan. You would not have it any other way.
Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, NJ
House
You are drawn to the problem above everything else — the symptom that doesn’t fit, the diagnosis hiding underneath the obvious one.
You’re not primarily motivated by the patient as a person — though you are capable of caring, even if you’d deny it.
You work best when the stakes are highest and the standard answer is wrong.
Princeton-Plainsboro exists to house one extraordinary, impossible mind — and everyone around that mind is there because they’re smart enough to keep up.
The only way forward here is to think harder than everyone else in the room. That is exactly what you do.
Sacred Heart Hospital, California
Scrubs
You understand that medicine is tragic and absurd in almost equal measure — and that the only sane response is to hold both of those things at the same time.
You are warm, self-aware, and funnier than most people in your field.
You use humour to get through terrible moments — and at Sacred Heart, that’s not a flaw, it’s a survival strategy.
You lean on the people around you and let them lean back. The laughter and the grief are genuinely inseparable here.
Scrubs is a show about learning to become someone worthy of the job. You are still very much in the middle of that process — which is exactly right.
Nicole Kidman Is Also Dominating Another Streamer
Trust one of Hollywood’s best to simultaneously dominate two of the world’s biggest streaming platforms. As Scarpetta hits this latest milestone, Kidman’s other new project, the Apple TV hit Margo’s Got Money Troubles, continues its run near the top of the charts. Also starring the likes of Elle Fanning, Nick Offerman, and Michelle Pfeiffer, the series has gained impressive reviews from critics, scoring a near-perfect rating of 97% on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.
