Here at Her Campus George Mason this week, it’s been all about finding your #GirlGang. But once you’ve found them, you’re going to need some activities to do. What’s better than sitting with your #GirlGang and watching some great shows on Netflix? Here are 7 Netflix originals that would be great to binge watch with your #GirlGang:
1. Big Mouth
Big Mouth is a show about a group of preteens and their coming of age stories. This animated series examines puberty, what Americans consider sexual education and fictitious hormone monsters that are actually super relatable.
