In second place, Amazon Prime Video's adaptation of Stephen King's \"Carrie,\" which offers a more empathetic take on the prom night massacre. Coming in third, Netflix's political thriller \"The Diplomat,\" featuring Keri Russell in a new role as Ambassador Kate Wyler. Fourth on the list is Peacock's horror series \"Crystal Lake,\" a prequel to the iconic \"Friday the 13th\" films, starring Linda Cardellini as Jason Voorhees’s mother.
