Let's be real: 2020 is rough. So of course, Black Mirror was my favorite series to binge watch during quarantine. I watched all 5 seasons, and came up with a top 5 list of my favorites. See if you agree:

White Bear

This episode is a total plot twist. It starts out pretty confusing, but once the storyline is revealed your mind will be BLOWN. It's an episode that will have you hanging on to the edge of your seat and in constant suspense.

White Christmas

Amazon

This episode is multi-faceted, and dealt with a lot of interesting concepts. It had multiple storylines happening at once, and also had a lot of plot twists within the episode. Once everything is revealed at the end, you will be in shock.

Hang the DJ

Vulture

If you are a hopeless romantic, then this episode is for you. It concerns a dating device and the idea of a soulmate (swoon!). The episode is cute, fun, and also suspenseful at the same time. It makes for the perfect romantic thriller.

Black Museum

Wired

This episode is probably the most unique on this list. It kept me guessing throughout its entirety, and dabbled in many moral dilemmas. I would say that this episode definitely will make you feel many emotions, and might even leave you crying at the end.

Playtest

Hollywood Reporter

The final episode on my list is Playtest. This episode is a good mix between horror and a thriller. If you don't particularly like scary things, then this episode may not be for you. The entire episode you are left guessing about what is real and what is not, and it really gets you thinking. It is the perfect episode if you are looking for something spine-chilling.

These are my top 5 episodes throughout the 5 seasons of Black Mirror. They all are suspenseful, and each deals with important and relevant moral issues, and I really enjoyed watching them.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Why Blair Waldorf Is The Realest Bitch To Ever Live

XOXO, Gossip Girl.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!
