Amazon Prime Video viewers have rushed to binge a new coming-of-age drama series after its biggest fans begged for a second season.
Motorheads, a 10-part series, dropped last month and follows the story of a group of young petrolheads and racers who live in the hard-knock Pennsylvania rustbelt.
A mixture of The Fast and the Furious and The Summer I Turned Pretty, Motorheads has landed a respectable 75% rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes.
The series stars teen drama icon Ryan Phillippe, of Cruel Intentions infamy, playing a former NASCAR mechanic turned struggling auto body shop owner.
‘Motorheads is about first love, first heartbreak, and turning the key in your first car,’ reads the official show synopsis from Prime Video.
And that’s been enough for some fans to already be convinced that, despite flying under the radar, Motorheads might be one of their favourite shows of all time.
On Google Reviews, Shawna said: ‘This is one of the best series I’ve seen come out in a while! Absolutely loved this show! Left all my other shows for this one and binged Motorheads!’
Shannon agreed: ‘One of the best new shows I have seen in years! Each actor does a great job. It has a great storyline that is suspenseful, interesting, drama, edge of your seat racing and character driven.’
User @EternalFlame said: ‘Please watch it. I have watched hundreds of shows and movies, and none have ever made me feel this many emotions! This is the best show or movie I have ever watched by a mile.’

Mya begged not just for one more season, but several more: ‘Ahhhhh, I love this show so so much please renew it for at least four seasons.’
Ryan Phillippe is joined in the Motorheads castlist by Nathalie Kelley, Never Have I Ever star Michael Cimino, and Melissa Collazo to make an ensemble cast of grease monkeys.
All 10 episodes are available to binge on the streaming platform, and many fans have already finished the whole thing. Some have took to X to demand a follow-up season.
One viewer even went so far as to threaten cancelling her Prime subscription entirely if the show isn’t renewed for season two.
@AGeorge43838 tagged Amazon’s official MGM Studios account and wrote: ‘I swear you better have a season 2 of Motorheads. Ryan Phillippe and crew have hit GOLD. The show is awesome.
‘Also, if there isn’t a season 2 I’m cancelling my prime!’
Many said the finale cliffhanger had left them desperate for more of the drama. @JMorgynWhite wrote: ‘My god the cliffhanger on Motorheads was unacceptable without a Season 2 on the track – there is a Season 2 coming, right Prime Video?? Repeat after me 100% binge worthy.’
@SaishaStar tweeted: ‘Please let there be a Season 2 that was a crazy cliffhanger and I need some answers on the backstory of Christian Maddox. So many Questions!’
@Riss286 demanded: ‘RENEW Motorheads FOR SEASON 2 PLEASE!!!’
Motorheads is available to stream on Prime Video.
