10 Shows To Binge-Watch If You're The TV > Movies Girl
ABC

I am a "TV show > movie" person all the way.

I love tv shows because each half-hour or hour show is a totally different story with the same characters you love. AKA, Netflix is gold for me.

I've wrapped up a list of perfect shows to curl up on the couch with a snack and binge all weekend long.

1. Law and Order- original, SVU, or Criminal Intent

While only a few seasons of "SVU" is on Netflix, "Law and Order" is playing on some channel at any time of the day. My roommates will tell you that I'm literally OBSESSED with this crime-solving tv show that has been on for nearly 20 years.

2. Gossip Girl

Pretty sure every girl alive has watched "Gossip Girl" at this point, but if you haven't, carve out a full day and binge till your heart's content

3. Parks and Recreation

Amy Poehler, Rashida Jones, and Aubrey Plaza? Honestly cannot get much better than that. The episodes are only 30 minutes long which made me feel better about finishing the entire series in about a week and a half. Like to laugh and think Chris Pratt is yummmmmmmm, check it out.

4. The Office

TBH I haven't watched this show (I know, I know) but I've heard great things as I'm sure you have. Maybe my next weekend binge? We'll see.

5. Grey's Anatomy

CLASSIC. Love, blood, drama, what could be better?

6. Scandal

All the love and drama and "Grey's" but throw in POTUS and an underground program run by a killer father? A+ work, Shonda.

7. Girlfriends Guide to Divorce

Not gonna lie, this show's kinda silly, BUT it's the kind of show you don't have to pay super close attention to so perfect when you need a new show but also need to do homework.

8. Stranger Things

Alright, y'all, even my dad has watched this. If you are behind and still haven't seen the two seasons of this addictive show, ya need to step up.

9. Gilmore Girls

Original and the new season. This show equals all of my childhood.

10. Criminal Minds

At least 12 seasons on Netflix gives me plenty to work with. One of my all-time favorite shows and have seen each episode at least 10 times. Word of advice: don't watch alone, at night, in the dark. I've warned you.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
