Any time you talk about Netflix with someone, they ALWAYS give you a show suggestion. If you’re like me, you already have seven shows you’re “watching” but keep adding more shows to your list, hoping one day you’ll watch them all. However, sometimes there's a show that breaks this rule, and you have to stay awake for three days straight to finish the series. These five shows below will have you saying YES when Netflix asks, “Are you still watching?”
1. Stranger Things
This Netflix Original is filled with mystery, supernatural forces, and 80’s nostalgia. ALSO, the cast is INCREDIBLE.

There are currently two seasons on Netflix, with season three in the works.
