I pride myself on being a Netflix enthusiast.
I feel like it's central to the identity of any a college student. Whether I'm binge-watching a show, discovering new movies, or rewatching old favorites, Netflix is always there for all of my television needs.
Although everyone has different tastes, Netflix's wide selection typically caters to whatever you're in the mood for. So next time you are browsing for something to watch, here are five of the things that I personally have enjoyed watching on Netflix recently.
1. "Gilmore Girls"
As someone who never watched Gilmore Girls growing up, I can honestly say that binging this classic show has been a blast. Mother/daughter duo Lorelei and Rory are the perfect leading pair. Funny and charming, the show and its dialogue have held up over the years. As a new fan, I cannot wait for the upcoming Netflix revival.
2. "Adult Beginners"
I came across this movie on my feed a few weeks ago, and I absolutely loved it. I have never heard anyone talk about it before, so it took me by surprise. After a failed business endeavor, Jake moves in with his sister's family to be a temporary nanny for his nephew. Brilliantly witty, this endearing story will certainly entertain you.
3. "Short Term 12"
Prior to her Oscar fame, Brie Larson graced the screen of this wonderful film. With being centered around a group foster home and its employees, this movie will surely pull on your heartstrings. If you feel like having a good cry or experiencing a moving story, check out Short Term 12.
4. "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants"
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants is as solid throwback movie for any mood. Highlighting a great 4-way female friendship, this film is a great rewatch. The inseparable bond that exists between the four leads is nothing short of charming and fun to experience all over again.
5. "Friends" (Thanksgiving Episodes)
If you have not watched Friends at all, stop what you are doing right now and binge the entire series!
However, if you are in the mood for a shorter marathon, watching all of the Thanksgiving episodes is always a good idea. If you are a fellow Friends fan, you understand the particular amazingness that is a classic Friends holiday episode.
