A Beginner’s Guide to the Perfect Netflix Binge

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Lancaster chapter.

It’s officially binge-watching season. But is it really possible to start a Netflix series if it doesn’t have at least three seasons available? The short answer is no (with the slight exception of You) – a season has to be binge-able to be binge-worthy, and that starts with having an endless supply of episodes.

Below are 10 Netflix shows that I recommend watching. I warn you now: you will get hooked.
