Winter break is a great season to spend quality time with your family, eat Christmas cookies, and hang out with friends. But you are bound to have a decent amount of down time to relax. In between Christmas movies and carols, Netflix has an endless number of shows to watch. If you are anything like me, after you end a great show, finding a new one you love just as much seems impossible. Here is a list of shows, comedic, dramatic, silly, or heartwarming. The list has everything from classics to more obscure dramas. Take your pick; you will not be disappointed with these shows.
1. Grey’s Anatomy.
A cult favorite. Everyone who sees this show, loves this show. It is dramatic, heartwarming, lovable, and (sort of) educational. You’ll feel like a surgeon after finishing one season. Push two of epi.
2. Drop Dead Diva.
This is one of the cheesiest shows that I have ever seen. It follows a model who died and is sent back to earth in the body of a lawyer… Yes, you read that right. Like I said, super cheesy but it is fun to follow the new cases each episode and the characters are endearing.
3. Shameless.
I cannot speak highly enough about this show. It is not for the faint of heart as it is definitely X rated, but it features some of the best characters in any show I have seen. The acting is phenomenal and the storylines will not disappoint. Follow a family with some serious dysfunction through the trials of life on the South Side of Chicago.
4. Vampire Diaries.
This one took me a few episodes to get into, but eventually the drama will take over you. Those of us who used to eat, sleep, and breath the Twilight Saga will notice quite a few similarities between the stories. But it is okay because the vampires in Vampire Diaries are much hotter (*swoon*).
5. Friends.
This one is a classic. Whether is it your first time watching it or your fiftieth, Friends is always an acceptable binge. From the laughable quotes, to the numerous romances, to the hilarious bromances, this show will never disappoint.
6.The Mysteries of Laura.
I found this show one day after ending a great series and I decided to give it a try. I instantly fell in love. It was cancelled after a short 3 seasons, which is way too soon in my opinion. It follows a murder investigator who is also a mother of two crazy twins. Each episode is a new investigation and I promise you, you will never be able to guess who the killer is.
7. New Girl.
I have never watched a show that makes me laugh out loud the way New Girl does. You will instantly feel like you are a part of this family of roommates. I’ve never met someone who does not love this show.
Binge at your own risk!
