Who doesn’t love stumbling upon a new binge-worthy series? Netflix is known for having thousands of episodes, movies and documentaries. One thing that some people sometimes overlook is the Netflix Originals list. This list is the home to dozens of shows and movies that you can’t watch anywhere else. Here’s just a few originals that you will not be able to stop watching!
Stranger Things
Even if you feel like you have heard everything you need to know through social media about this one, it is still so good! Even if you are usually not into fantasy or sci-fi shows, you will not be able to look away while watching. Stranger Things as of right now has two seasons and hopefully for the binge watchers, there will be a third season right around the corner!
Grace and Frankie
If you’re in need of a good laugh, Grace and Frankie will do the trick! Quick-witted humor and sarcasm are just two of the components of this show! This show comes with a bunch of unexpected twists and turns in the characters lives right from the start. One of the best parts about this series is that the episodes are only about a half hour so you can binge-watch twice as much as an hour-long show!
Black Mirror
The best thing about Black Mirror is that you are interested from the minute it begins; there is no need for an exciting lead up. Another great part about this series is that there is no story line to this show (Yes, I know that sounds strange). Each episode is about a different topic so if you don’t like one episode, you can skip right to the next episode. If you want to start watching this series and begin on Season 2 Episode 4, you can do just that!
Orange is the New Black
If you ever were curious about what it is like to live like a prison, this series will fill you right in (kind of). This fictional series takes you inside of a women’s prison and gives you a look into all of the stories of how each woman got to where they are now. This series involves corrupt officers, escaped prisoners and other illegal internal affairs – what more could you ask for?
13 Reasons Why
This series is not only binge-worthy but it is also eye-opening. Aside from entertainment, 13 Reasons Why uses fictional characters and events to show people what it’s like to go through peer pressure and bullying and how your actions affect others. You will not be able to resist pressing “Play Next Episode” and before you know it, you will be emotionally invested in the characters and their stories.
Even though Netflix is constantly changing up the shows that are available to watch, these five aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. These shows definitely live up to all the hype! Start watching as soon as possible, you won’t regret it!
