It's getting colder outside and is becoming prime binging time of year. Speaking of prime *wink wink*, I've watched numerous shows and movies that are either Amazon Prime originals or Amazon Studios films (which are pretty much the same thing), so I'm here to give scores and summaries, so you know exactly what you should watch next. (Update: I've tried my best to add trigger warnings to all the shows & movies that I remember deal with sensitive topics at some point. I'm sure I forgot some though, so please make sure to look the movies/shows up if you're concerned before watching)
1. Good Girls Revolt (starting off with tv shows)

https://twitter.com/AshleyAlvarado/status/1202274654859059201/photo/1
This series chronicles the lives of the women that work at a major newspaper in the late 1960s.
Number of seasons so far: 1
Score: 7/10- The fact that the same problems popping up in the 1960s are still relevant today makes me sad, but this show sure doesn't.

(Trigger Warning: sexual assault) Superheroes save the day, but they're also terrible people.
Number of seasons so far: 2
Score: 9/10- A superhero show that is unlike any other and likes Billy Joel as much as I do.
3. Hunters

https://twitter.com/CBR/status/1236792973112807426/photo/1

5. Fleabag

https://twitter.com/lizo_mzimba/status/1176536533408669696/photo/1
(Trigger Warning: suicide) Things constantly go wrong in Fleabag's painfully realistic life, whether it be romance, family relationships, or much, much more.

Score: 8/10- I am highly aware of how much critical acclaim is attached to this show; I just think it's not quite my type of humor.

https://twitter.com/RED_Cinema/status/1185227790368460801/photo/1
Each episode captures a different kind of love story of all kinds of people who live in New York City together and are all connected.

In this future world, when people die they can pay to be uploaded and live new, strange lives.

https://twitter.com/hellogiggles/status/895156710675021824/photo/1
A recent college graduate discovers his father is having an affair and develops an interesting relationship with his mistress.
Score: 5/10- I sorted of got distracted and missed parts of the movie, but a better film would have kept my attention.
10. Life Itself

https://twitter.com/EW/status/1018534425754300417/photo/1
A slew of stories about different people interweave to show how they're all connected.
Score: 5/10- I knew going into this movie that it wasn't well-received and now I understand why. This is a good case of in theory it's an interesting story but when actually done (and not done well enough) it's confusing.
11. The Big Sick

https://twitter.com/THR/status/823179857978912768/photo/1
An unconventional love story where one of the main characters suddenly becomes ill and the other must deal with it all, including her parents.

Score: 8/10- This movie actually sort of motivated me to get off my butt and work out more, and that's saying something (it didn't last very long though).
14. Troop Zero

https://twitter.com/girlscouts/status/1218279043272933376/photo/1
A ragtag group of Birdie Scouts come together to compete at the national competition.

One fancy boarding school is made up of 5 factions, and Selah is right smack-dab in the middle of it all.

19. My Spy

https://twitter.com/DEADLINE/status/1247933248669249538/photo/1
A 9-year-old girl befriends a CIA operative.
Score: 7/10- I feel like everything about it was sort of expected, but that doesn't mean it wasn't still good.
20. Chemical Hearts
