As a Netflix regular, I live off of recommendations from my friends and really anyone for a good tear-jerking movie or amazing television series. Here are my favorites and why you should binge-watch these series on Netflix!
1. Friday Night Lights
Set in Dillon, Texas, Dillon High is a nationally ranked high school football program. In the season opener of the team's season, the star quarterback goes in for a rough tackle and ends up paralyzed. His only hope is to walk again, but he soon learns that the chances would be slim to none. With strength, courage and determination, the team and town of Dillon unifies amidst relationships, tragedy, and celebration.
2. One Tree Hill
A basketball star at Tree Hill High School, Nathan Scott faces pressure from his father and peers as he continuously leads his team to victory, game after game. He learns that he has a half-brother named Lucas. The brothers are in two different worlds; Nathan lights up the high school gym with his buzzer beaters and Lucas plays 3-on-3 basketball at the river courts. Basketball, relationships, and hardships bring the two brothers together as they tackle high school, college, and beyond.
After starting these shows that capture the essence of high school and hardship, all you'll want to do is curl up in bed with popcorn and binge-watch these Netflix series!
