Greta, Just Add Magic, and more to watch this weekend on Amazon, Oct. 25
By Mads Lennon
If you have kids they’ll be excited to know that new specials from If You Give a Mouse a Cookie and more are on Amazon this weekend!
It’s a great weekend to be a kid and have access to Amazon Prime. Popular series like If You Give a Mouse a Cookie and Just Add Magic are getting brand new specials! It’s unclear if the Just Add Magic episode will have any Halloween ties but the If You Give a Mouse a Cookie episode is all about the spooky holiday!
If you’re not looking to watch youth-oriented programming, no worries! HBO has the theatrical premiere of Greta, a zany thriller starring Isabelle Huppert and Chloe Grace Moretz. But if none of that strikes a chord, you could always catch up on Modern Love or Jack Ryan!
Modern Love debuted last weekend and Season 2 of Jack Ryan will officially debut soon on November 1.
If You Give a Mouse a Cookie: Halloween Special
Have you ever read the book, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Numeroff? If so you’re familiar with the storyline of this fun Amazon animated series. The original series premieres on Amazon in 2016 and the second season recently premiered at the end of this past September.
