7 Netflix Shows Every Girl Needs To Watch
K-Zap

I just feel like there is never a bad time to do some binge watching on Netflix (or Hulu if that's the way you roll). I've had Netflix for only about a year, but it's truly my saving grace. I've watched so many different TV series, and I just really felt the need to share those with you. So here's a list of my top seven favorite series.

7. "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"

"Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" is a cute, quirky show. It centers around a girl named none other than, Kimmy Schmidt. She was kidnapped and held hostage for 15 years. She's finally released and the whole show is about Kimmy trying to adjust to a totally new world. It's so funny and each and every character adds something to the show. It has two seasons and as far as I know there are more on the way.

6. "New Girl"

"New Girl" was one of my favorites. In the beginning I was a little weary because I didn't care much for how ditsy Zooey Deschanel's character was. But, I stuck it out and ended up falling in love. The show focuses on a school teacher named Jessica Day who discovers her boyfriend is cheating on her and ends up moving into an apartment with three other guys. Long story short, she ends up developing a very interesting friendship with them. The show is hilarious and I couldn't help but binge watch this one. There are four seasons currently on Netflix.

5. "How I Met Your Mother"

I had seen several episodes of "How I Met Your Mother" but I had never actually watched it from start to finish, so I made that my goal last winter and I accomplished that goal. The show is amazing. It has everything you can possibly want in a TV show; it made you cry, laugh and sometimes scream. And let's not even begin to talk about the ending of the series. I still have mixed emotions whenever I think about it. This show had nine seasons, and has sadly ended.

4. "Jane the Virgin"

This show was fabulous on so many levels. Jane is a Catholic who made a promise to her grandmother and God to not have sex until marriage. She kept that promise, but end up being accidentally artificially inseminated. This show has everything. A love triangle, a telenovela, action, drama, a cute baby, and not to mention a very hunky male cast. I can't tell you much because that would totally be spoiling the show for you. Right now there are two seasons on Netflix, and a third season coming soon to The CW.

3. "The Fosters"

This show was one I was never really interested in, but I was bored one weekend and decided to give it a shot. It was definitely one of the best ideas I've ever had. Callie and her little brother Jude have been in the foster system for several years after their mom is killed in a drunk driving accident. The show is basically about the two of them and the new foster family they became a part of. Again, I'm going to stop there before I spoil anything. There are currently three seasons on Netflix. New episodes are coming sometime soon to Freeform (Formally ABC family).

2. "Stranger Things"

There is no easy way to explain "Stranger Things." It's literally a mixture of everything. I would place it under the science fiction genre, but there is tons of drama and even a little romance. I cannot think of a way to explain the plot without spoiling the entire show. So I'll just say it focuses on the disappearance of a young boy and the determination of his mom, brother and friends to find him. It's a Netflix original show with only one season so far. It was just announced season two will be happening but not until sometime in 2017.

And finally,

1. "One Tree Hill"


Okay, let's be real. Almost any teenage girl will tell you that One Tree Hill is the best show they've ever seen and I totally agree. The beginning will make you question what you're about to watch but from there on out you will become addicted, obsessed and breathe all things "One Tree Hill." Long story short, the show is about a boy who's father just ditched him and his mother. The funny part is they still live in the same town, however; he managed to stay out of the spotlight and keep everyone's eyes off him. That is until he joins the basketball team, threatening to take the role of the team all-star from his half brother Nathan, who spends the majority of the first season torturing him. The character transformation of main character Nathan will blow your mind. It's just an all together amazing show that actually focuses on some real issues throughout it's story line. The show had me crying, laughing and basically 100 percent obsessed with watching.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
