TV Shows To Binge Watch Over Thanksgiving Break
Thought Catalog

Thanksgiving – the time for overeating and awkward family gatherings. In between stuffing your face with turkey and spending time with family and friends, Thanksgiving break is the best time to catch up on your shows or start a new one!

1. For People Who Love Rom-Coms: Jane the Virgin


This parody of a telenovela follows Jane after being artificially inseminated and the crazy series of events that ensues. If that isn't reason enough to make you want to watch it, there is also a steamy love triangle to get you emotionally invested.

First 2 seasons are on Netflix

2. For Comedy Lovers: The Office


If you have a little bit more time on your hands, The Office is for you. Between the quirky boss and hilarious employees, you're bound to find at least one character you like. It's not just a funny sitcom, but it also has a few office romances to keep the story fresh and exciting.

All 9 seasons on Netflix

3. For Thrill-Seekers: Scream


This show is for those of you not ready to accept that Halloween is over or those who have watched (and loved) the original Scream movies. This MTV original series is loosely based off of the movies, but still has that same perfect balance between dark humor and, of course, suspense.

First 2 seasons on Netflix

4. For Drama Diehards: The Crown


If you love anything that has to do with royal drama, then this Netflix Original is your tv show. It follows Queen Elizabeth II and her ascension to the throne after her father, King George VI, dies. As romances and rivalries develop, you're bound to get emotionally invested real quick.

First season on Netflix

5. For Foodies: Kids Baking Championships


This show is perfect to get you in the holiday baking spirit. Not only does it have delicious desserts that will most definitely make you hungry but it also has adorable children baking the them. If you're ready to get baking (or more like watch others bake), then get comfy and enjoy the show.

First season on Netflix


Now's the perfect time to give thanks to that friend whose Netflix account you've been using . . .

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.

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.
