There's a Steven Universe sequel series in the works at Prime Video

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-19 06:42:11

It's been five years since the Steven Universe saga ended, via a final season and movie that took the story into the future. Now, it's coming back, according to a report by Deadline . Prime Video is working on a sequel series, with franchise creator Rebecca Sugar in tow as an executive producer (and hopefully as a songwriter.)

Prime Video reportedly shows almost twice as many ads as it used to

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-19 11:06:51

If it feels like you spend a lot more time watching ads in Prime Video than you used to, that may not be a mistake. Amazon has increased the number of ads or "ad load" in Prime Video to four-to-six minutes of ads per hour, Adweek reports. Amazon's plan to increase the amount of advertising in its streaming service was previously reported in October 2024.
