Amazon this week (January 31-February 6) plans to add 49 new TV shows and movies to its Prime streaming lineup, including one original Amazon movie.
The new titles will include Bliss, an Amazon original movie starring Owen Wilson as a recent divorcee who meets a homeless woman (Salma Hayek) who believes her world of poverty is a computer simulation; Coming to America, the 1988 Eddie Murphy comedy about an African prince who searches for love in the United States; and Dazed and Confused, the 1993 comedy film directed by Richard Linklater about an eventful last day of high school in 1976 in a small Texas town.
Also notable this week: The first three seasons (the ones worth watching) of Billions, the Showtime dramatic series about an unscrupulous hedge fund trader (Damian Lewis) and an ambitious prosecutor (Paul Giamatti) who wants to take him down at any cost.
