Prime Video's hit mystery series is coming back for another season, but before that happens, season 1 just keeps proving itself as a 2026 streaming behemoth, hitting yet another milestone in its successful run. Mystery shows are perfect fits for streaming services, especially in the case of binge releases. In 2026, a few of those have risen to the forefront of their respective streamers. For instance, Netflix had two crime series with plenty of mysteries, Jon Bernthal's His & Hers and the Harlan Coben adaptation I Will Find You, break into the streaming service's all-time TV show chart, running against each other. Looking at Prime Video's TV show library in 2026, the streamer has also had its fair share of shows centered on intriguing mysteries. Guy Ritchie's Young Sherlock brought the biggest detective in all fiction to the small screen, while Nicolas Cage's Spider-Noir added a dash of superhero action to a storyline that was all about secret motivations and mysteries, and the steamy 56 Days built incredible suspense around a mysterious death revealed early on. Joining them as one of Prime Video's biggest mystery series of 2026 so far is Sterling Point, which has just hit another streaming milestone. Sterling Point Continues To Entrance Prime Video's Top 10 According to data from FlixPatrol, Sterling Point has just hit the milestone of 50 days on Prime Video's Top 10 TV Shows chart in the United States. All eight episodes of the coming-of-age series were released at the same time on Prime Video on August 5. Given how only 51 days have passed since the new 2026 Prime Video series and today, Friday, September 25, it is easy to see just how much the drama has dominated the streamer's US chart. Sterling Point is currently the 3rd TV show with the longest run on Prime Video's domestic chart. The only two shows on the streamer's top 10 that have trended longer than it on Prime Video in the US are Judy Justice, at 94 days, and Off Campus, at 134 days. Sterling Point is closing in on the milestone of two full months trending on Prime Video, and there are no signs to suggest it will not be able to make that and much more. After all, at the time of writing, Sterling Point is still high on Prime Video's Top 10 TV Shows chart in the United States, standing at #3, only behind Alan Ritchson's Reacher and its spinoff, Neagley. What's The Latest On Season 2? Image courtesy of Prime Video Sterling Point was officially renewed for season 2 on August 20, with Prime Video renewing the new mystery series a couple of weeks after it debuted on the streamer worldwide. Since then, there have been no updates on what to expect from the next season of the Ella Rubin-led series. Different from other Prime Video coming-of-age shows that became hits and were renewed for new seasons after debuting in 2026, such as Off Campus and Every Year After, Sterling Point is not based on any books — it is an original story. As such, viewers must stay tuned to the latest Sterling Point news for season 2 teases.
