Last week, Amazon Prime Video added a Doctor Sleep, a horror movie based on the book of the same name, a sequel to his original novel The Shining. Amazon Prime Video is adding weekly new content that includes fresh content and old favorite that can be enjoyed from the comfort of the living room couch. While a lot of studios are ramping up big theatrical releases in time for the holidays around the COVID-19 pandemic, many viewers still prefer to wait for new releases to come to their streaming services. UPDATE August 13th, 6:42PM ET : Added comment from Sen.This week, Amazon Prime Video are adding an action thriller season of TV, a children’s holiday special, a Spanish romantic comedy, and a comedy film. DeJoy has pledged that mail related to the election would not be delayed. The letter says the changes have made mail delivery “slower and less reliable,” putting at risk millions of Americans who rely on mail delivery for prescriptions, Social Security checks, and other kinds of mail. The group of Democrats urged the inspector general in their letter to investigate why the new measures were put into place, how the changes could affect voting by mail in the November election, and to look into potential financial conflicts of interest.
