10 Must Watch Shows During Winter Break
Netflix

In This Article:

Now that the semester is over, you are probably wondering what your purpose of life is beside writing essays and constantly studying. Breaks give you time for some rest and relaxation, and what better way to relax than cuddling with some hot cocoa and some Netflix. Here is a list compiled of shows that must make it into your binge watching sessions, with the website in which you can find it. Enjoy!

Downton Abbey

If you have a refined style, this show is the one for you. It adds so many combinations of drama, romance, and British accents. This story line will have you hitting continue watching for days. Beware the need to speak in a British accent after watching five episodes in a row.

Pitch

This show is a home run (pun intended). It is aimed at both men and woman of any age. This is a story of the first female Major League Baseball player, with the drama that comes with the pressures of fame and stardom. The show is still on air, so that gives you enough time to get caught up with all ten episodes before is comes back for its spring season.

The Crown

This show is for the history buff. "The Crown" is the story of a young Queen Elizabeth II. It shows that pain of losing her father and the responsibility that comes with ruling a nation. The first season is already out with ten episodes, so you can watch the first season.

Gilmore Girls

I haven’t even fully watched this show to know that it is worthy of being on this list. When you get home from break, your mother is probably going to want to spend time with you like mine does. So this show is a perfect way to bond with your mother in a special way.

New Girl

I have not watched a show so fast in my life. The cast of this show is amazing, and Zoey Deschanel is so funny! There are so many catchphrases you will pick up from this show. If you want a quirky, light-hearted show that has fast episodes then this show is the one for you.

The Office

This show is a little lengthy season wise, but you won’t even notice as you are constantly clicking next episode. The cast is phenomenal and this will give you inside jokes to last a lifetime.

Parks and Recreation

This show is sort of like the office, but with a chubby Chris Pratt. This show will have you laughing for days, and finding the need every day to “Treat Yo Self.”

Glee (Netflix)

For the music lover, this show will be a perfect nostalgic trip. This isn’t your average musical with people randomly breaking out into song, but a show that has a plot and has you emotionally connected to this characters and singing along with them.

How I Met Your Mother

If you love a good story you will love this. The entire show is one great story of how a man met the mother of his children, hence the title. The show flashbacks to a single man trying to find the love of his life with the help of his four friends.

Friends (Netflix)

Possible one of the best comedies of the 90s, "Friends" is a rite of passage for the binge watcher. The show is long, but the hilarious misadventures of six friends and their adult lives make the show worth watching.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
