Netflix is more than a simple paid website/app to watch movies and shows, it’s also a lifestyle (hello, introverts!). Finals are over and soon grades will be stamped in the Netstudent system, but while you wait for it, or you have already scored enough to pass and consider yourself on vacation mode, there’s a bunch of shows you can press play on Netflix.
If you enjoy spys, detectives and crimes…
SHERLOCK – Of course
Following a modern day Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch <3) and his partner John Watson (Martin Freeman, yeah, the Hobbit). Most episodes are quite long, but totally worth it. Book fans will be ver thrilled on how the cases are adapted for television and contemporary London.
