5 Underrated Netflix Shows
Strategies In Language Learning

Sometimes, we get into a little bit of a Netflix rut. We watch the same old things every time, rewatch the same episodes of Breaking Bad or Narcos until we can quote them from memory. However, Netflix has some hidden gems just waiting to reach mainstream popularity. Here're five TV shows that will help get you out of your Netflix rut and binge watching your way through finals.

1. Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot

Even though Netflix doesn't have all the season, the ones they do have are amazing. This is nothing like the crime shows on TV today, the plots are all new and different from each other. Can you find the killer before Hercule Poirot? Watch and find out.

2. Love

This Netflix original series pretty much describes the millennial dating scene. Awkward, uncomfortable and everyone is looking for the right one, it's hard to get out there and date. Follow Mickey and Gus as they explore their relationships with the world, their friends, their jobs and each other.

3. Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries

I know, I know, another mystery show. But I promise this one is also well-worth the watch. It's funny, entertaining, well written and talks about different social issues without being overly preachy.

4. Grace and Frankie

This humorous show follows two women whose husbands were once business partners and now have revealed themselves to be a gay couple. The women, who once didn't get along, are now living together in a beach house purchased when they were still married. Watch as they learn to love themselves and their new lives.

5. Peaky Blinders

Full of twists and turns, this historical drama set in the UK will have you on the edge of your seat.You'll quickly want to devour every episode — but beware, no one is who they seem to be.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
