Dear Friends,
I hope you are all doing well. It's been a hectic couple of weeks for me at college with stress and work, but I am pushing through. Today I want to give you guys a couple suggestions for TV shows that I find enjoyable to watch. It's a wide variety of genres from animated to comedy shows. So without any wasting more time, turn on your streaming device and get ready for these TV show suggestions.
1. Rick and Morty
Rick and Morty is a cartoon made through Adult Swim, so it is a more mature cartoon show. This show follows an adolescent boy named Morty, and his crazy, drunk grandpa, Rick, as they travel through different dimensions and get themselves into some international galactic trouble. There are currently 3 seasons with about 30 episodes total. The newest season is coming out this November 10th, and can be streamed on Hulu! I highly suggest this show if you are into clever TV writing, and hilarious, crude humor. It's definitely not kids for younger ages, so parents keep that in mind. For all of you college kids who haven't seen this show yet, I highly suggest it.
2. Prison Break
Prison Break is a show from the early 2000's, and recently had a season revival in 2017. The show follows Michael Scofield, as he tries to break out his brother, Lincoln Burrows, from Fox River Prison. It is five seasons long, with over 3 days worth of episodes. It's very violent, yet super impressive with how the story is written. If you're into the classic "2005 year kind of shows" then you'll definitely enjoy this series. If you don't know what I mean about that, I guess you'll just have to see for yourself! This series is also available on Hulu.
3. Brooklyn 99
Brooklyn 99. The show that got canceled, but somehow got saved from various fans and celebrities complaining that this show should continue. Thank goodness they did, because this show is till releasing new episodes and is on the rise. This series follows a group of police officers at a precinct in New York, as they take on various different cases and "heists" throughout the show. I think of it as a newer version of The Office, and quite frankly the show is very entertaining. It has actors Andy Samberg and Terry Crews, as well as many other rememberable faces. This series, as well, is on Hulu.
4. SuperStore
Just to get this over with, this show is also on Hulu. If you don't have Hulu, I'm sorry this article must be a bust for you. Fear not though, as maybe I will make an edition for specifically Netflix. Anyways, SuperStore follows a group of coworkers at a local store called Cloud 9, as they try to deal with new ideas and issues revolving around their jobs. It is still currently making episodes, and it is a very different kind of comedic show. The episodes are very short, and easy to binge! I highly suggest this if you really have no other show to watch right now.
The Politician
The Politician is ONLY on Netflix, so there you go Netflix owners. This is a really new show that is about a kid played by Ben Platt, and his journey to becoming President of the United States. It is a very interesting dramedy-like show, and it's really fun to watch. There are only 8 episodes in the first season, but they are already in production for the second season, so soon more episodes will be available! If you're into famous singers and musical theatre actors being in a TV show, then this one is for you.
I hope you all find these suggestions helpful, as it is that time of year where no one wants to go outside with the cold weather, and the sun goes down super freaking early. If you have a day to yourself, you should definitely check some of these series out! I really enjoy all of them, and sometimes I go back to rewatch some episodes.
I hope everyone has a fantastic week, and I'll see you next time with a new article. Peace!
Your Friend,
Al
