With the new semester starting, we all need something to take our mind off of the stress. These Netflix originals are funny, sad, and are binge-worthy... All at the same time. Although there are too many good ones to count, here is a list of five great Netflix shows/movies that are sure to take your stress away:
1. "You"
Even though this show originally aired on Lifetime, it took off once it hit Netflix. A psychological thriller that follows a charming, yet sketchy man through his intense crush on an aspiring writer that he met in a bookstore. The show quickly turns sinister as he becomes obsessed and follows this woman and stalks her through the internet. One episode into the first season and you'll understand why everybody is obsessing over this show recently.
2. "The Haunting of Hill House"
This is a horror series following a family who grew up in the house that was later named the most famous haunted house in America as they adventure into adulthood and are forced to face the demons of their past. With an Oscar-winning cast, this is the show that left the country talking about it for months after it was released.
3. "13 Reasons Why"
Two seasons that follow Clay Jensen through the uncovering of the mystery of why Hannah Baker committed suicide and why she left tapes to explain what was going on in her mind. A Netflix series that almost matches how incredible the book was, "13 Reasons Why" is a 10/10.
4. "To All The Boys I've Loved Before"
The most talked about Netflix movie of 2018, it seems. "To All The Boys I've Loved Before" is the perfect blend of funny and hopelessly cheesy, and it never gets old, even if you've watched it seven times in less than three months.
5. "Atypical"
This show that follows a teenager on the Autism spectrum as he navigates through dating and life. He learns independence and finds his own path. This show makes you laugh, makes you cry, and makes you feel.
