Forged in Fire- Netflix
If seeing how blades are handmade sounds interesting to you, this is definitely your show. When I first watched this show, I didn’t even know I would be interested in it. Turns out, bladesmithing is super awesome, and takes a serious amount of skill.
Each season, there are competitors who go against each other to see who is the best bladesmith. You see step-by-step how blades are made, and you even learn the history behind each sword or knife the competitors are told to recreate!
If you’re bored and want something random to watch, turn this on!

Ink Master- Netflix
Have you been wanting a tattoo, but are too nervous to get that consultation? This show might make you reconsider. Ink Master, hosted by Dave Navarro, has been my favorite show since I was in middle school. After watching it, I knew I wanted to be covered in tattoos when I got older.
In this show, there are tattoo artists hailing from different tattoo shops around the world. Throughout the seasons, the artists are given different challenges, and tattoo people who volunteer to be their canvases. You learn about different tattoo styles, and what constitutes a good and bad tattoo.
And if you’re looking for a show led by women, there is Ink Master: Angels. The women hosting this show were on previous seasons of Ink Master.
