NASCAR Moves 'Full Speed' Doc to Prime Video
NASCAR is moving its Full Speed docuseries from Netflix to Prime Video, premiering March 5, 2026, and has reworked the project from a multi-episode series into a single feature film focused on the 2026 Daytona 500. The shift follows a steep audience decline for the series (reported drop from 3.4 million views to 1.1 million between seasons) and reflects a strategic decision to embed the content within a broadcast partner's ecosystem. Prime Video, a key NASCAR media partner, will also exclusively air five mid‑season Cup Series races, allowing the documentary to act as a high‑production promotional vehicle to build a fanbase directly on the streaming platform that carries live race coverage.
V10 Launches 24/7 AFV FAST Channel

The channel showcases episodes from the Bob Saget and Tom Bergeron eras and will run as “America’s Funniest Home Videos: Holiday Edition” through January 5. The launch is part of V10’s strategy to monetize its owned IP after acquiring Vin Di Bona Productions; V10 says it manages a library of over 2.8 million digital assets and operates 44 FAST channels. V10’s VP of OTT, Sara Levine, framed AFV as brand‑safe inventory well suited to the ad‑supported streaming market.
Goldman Sachs Adds Amazon to Top Picks for October
Goldman Sachs has updated its 'U.S. Conviction List — Director's Cut' for October, adding five buy-rated stocks: Amazon, Burlington Stores, Huntington Ingalls, Johnson Controls, and Occidental Petroleum. The investment bank removed Air Products and Chemicals, ConocoPhillips, Golar LNG, Loar Holdings, and Tyson Foods. For Amazon, analyst Eric Sheridan highlighted structural and cyclical growth drivers, including AI-driven demand for AWS, improving e-commerce profitability, and advertising growth. The price target is $375, implying over 50% upside. The other additions include Huntington Ingalls (target $439), Burlington Stores (target $382), and names with specific catalysts. Goldman cites attractive entry points after recent underperformance for several of these stocks.
