Fall is officially here and as school picks up, what is one great thing you can do during your down time? Watch Netflix.

Netflix is one of my favorite pastimes. I love watching it when I’m not busy, so it is only fitting that I would give you my top five recommendations of what to watch.

  • Gossip Girl: This show is one of all my all-time favorites. I love it so much. Who wouldn’t want to be Blair Waldorf? The show is filled with drama and it is so interesting to watch. People who believe this show is boring haven’t watched all of the episodes yet.
  • Degrassi Next Class: This show is a continuation of Degrassi that was on TeenNick. If you grew up watching the show like me, this is definitely the show to watch.
  • The Secret Life of the American Teenager: This show was controversial when it first aired because it showed a depiction of teenage pregnancy. However, it didn’t glamorize teen pregnancy. It made it realistic and that is why I recommend everyone watch this show.
  • Friends: This show is probably one of the most relatable shows. It shows a group of friends going through life as they become more mature adults. Given that the majority of us are college-aged, it makes us take a look at what life might be like when we get out of college while adding humor.
  • Grey’s Anatomy: This show made me cry. It’s that good. It is a depiction of hospital life and if you like emotion, this is the show to go to

While I can give hundreds of shows for you to watch, these are my top five. I hope you watch at least one of the shows and I hope you have a productive semester!
