Elle, Prime Video
Before she conquered Harvard and became one of pop culture's most beloved heroines, Elle Woods was navigating the equally daunting world of high school. Set in the mid-90s, this prequel series follows a teenage Elle as she deals with friendship drama, first love and all the questionable fashion choices the decade had to offer. Starring Lexi Minetree in the title role and executive produced by Reese Witherspoon, Elle offers a fun, nostalgic origin story that reveals how the endlessly optimistic future lawyer became the woman audiences fell in love with in Legally Blonde.

Rolf Harris: Primetime Predator, Prime Video
This sobering two-part documentary examines how one of Britain's most familiar television personalities was able to evade scrutiny for decades. Through testimony from survivors, archival footage and fresh reporting, the film explores the culture that allowed Harris to maintain his public image while concealing a pattern of abuse. Rather than focusing solely on the crimes themselves, it shines a light on the lasting impact on those affected and asks difficult questions about the institutions and individuals who failed to act.
