7 Netflix Shows and Series to Consider Watching

This is a response to Films In The Spirit Of Summer.

As an avid reader and viewer of film and television, I love watching television shows and films. Being able to analyze the context and setting of my favorite show and understanding the relation between social constructs of today’s society is intriguing to me. Being able to access the digital libraries of popular film hubs can give viewers cinematic experiences from the comfort of their own homes. We can watch new shows and films or take to nostalgic tendencies of familiarized cinema.

I will not go into depth on my list of television shows, because I feel like I could give a never-ending list or description as to why I love these shows. But let us get started with a list of show recommendations from Netflix.

“Suits”

Looks at a Manhattan corporate firm, following attorney Harvey Spector and his prodigy associate Mike Ross.


“Emily in Paris”

Follows Chicago marketing executive Emily Cooper embracing a new job and potential promotion as she travels to Paris.


“Stranger Things”

The show follows a group of individuals in a small town in Indiana uncovering supernatural activities and government exploitation. With season 5 to come out, **hopefully soon**, this show will be on anyone's recommended list.


“The Maid”

Follows a young mother seeking refuge from an abusive relationship while trying to support her and her child's life to build a better future. This show gives the viewers insights on a true story of a mother's life and can allow viewers to better understand these sorts of situations.


“The Rain”

Follows young survivors of a rain-borne virus seeking safety and figuring out the truth behind government doors. I am really intrigued by this show, and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.


“Trinkets”

This follows the friendship of three young women in high school as they attend a Shoplifters Anonymous group.


“Bridgerton”

A romance story following the lives of siblings in the Bridgerton family trying to find love. During the Regency era, a sub-period of the longer Georgian Era, which dated the years of 1811 to 1820. This era is noted for well-known authors, styles of art, and fashions. The gestures of romance, yet betrayals played out by characters are so intriguing.


All these shows are on Netflix currently, I totally recommend watching all of them. But I cannot just stop at Netflix, right? We all have our favorite shows not just constricted to on platform. Other amazing shows not on Netflix to consider are “Survivor,” “Only Murders in the Building,” “Pretty Little Liars,” and “The Bold Type.”

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

Obsessive Thoughts Keep My Brain Stuck On A Loop And Me Stuck On My Couch

Sometimes my brain just starts turning on an idea and it doesn't want to stop.

I don't know if it is related to my anxiety, perfectionism or depression. I don't know why it happens. It's frustrating, it's painful and it stops me from functioning.

girl with a hat

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.
