Sometimes, life gets you down and you just need to grab a snack and binge watch some TV shows. As of October 23rd, 2017, here are eleven shows to help you unwind and lift your spirits.
1. Parks and Recreation
This is currently my favorite show, and it's perfect to binge. Everyone I know who has watched Parks and Rec has loved it. With a huge cast of characters, endless jokes, and hilariously awkward situations, there is something for everyone.
2. America's Funniest Home Videos
There are a few different versions of AFV on Netflix, all guaranteed to make you laugh. While the full series isn't on there, it's enough to get you in better spirits.
3. Bill Nye the Science Guy
Relieve your childhood and learn something along the way! No matter how upset you feel, hearing "Bill! Bill! Bill! Bill!" will get you hyped.
4. Bob Ross
Like AFV, there are a few different Bob Ross episodes. If relaxation is what you're looking for, he's the perfect man to watch. How can you be sad while listening to his soothing voice and endless optimism?
5. Friends
An absolute classic, it's no wonder that everyone freaked out when Netflix finally decided to add it. It has held up for a reason.
6. Futurama
While this show does have deeper messages, on the surface it's simply a great cartoon that draws you in with colorful animation, unique storylines, and witty pop culture references.
7. Mystery Science Theater 3000
If you're fascinated by older, B (and below) level films, then MST3K is right for you. The films themselves are bad enough to make you laugh, but the commentary from the characters is what makes this so good. Bonus: MST3K: The Return, is great too.
8. New Girl
It's nearly impossible to resist Jess and the boy's charm, and get invested in their strange yet lovable relationships with each other.
9. Ouran High School Host Club
I'm not really into anime, but I love this one. It's absurd, and worth paying attention to the subtitles for.
10. Phineas and Ferb
Another blast from the past. The brother's adventures are still fun to watch today even if it's to make fun of how crazy they are.
11. That 70's Show
Your regular teenage antics with a groovy setting. Easy to get lost in and unwind to.
Hopefully these shows will help you go from this...
to this!
