Binge Worthy Shows To Watch On Netflix

Are you in need of a new show to binge watch on Netflix? I am always seeing posts on Facebook and Twitter about people not knowing what show to watch next on Netflix. While we're all avoiding responsibilities and things that we probably should be doing, here's some shows to get hooked on:

(Note: These are my personal favorites)

1. Friends

If you're into comedy, this is the show to turn to. Friends debuted in 1994 and ended in 2004. There are 10 seasons of Friends, and it gets better and better as the years go by. I have watched all 10 seasons of Friends multiple times and still laugh my butt off at each episode! It's the ultimate feel-good show to give you a good laugh and hit you right in the feels. (Not to mention, Jennifer Aniston in the 90's! HOT!)

2. Grey's Anatomy

Grey's Anatomy has been around since 2005, and is still going strong. Grey's is currently on their thirteenth season, and still extremely popular. The setting is in Seattle and begins with Meredith Grey, the daughter of the famous surgeon Ellis Grey, beginning her internship to become a surgeon at Seattle Grace Hospital. It's obviously a hospital show, you will think that you're a certified surgeon after watching a couple of seasons. Totally addicting.

3. The Ranch


The Ranch is a new original series that Netflix released earlier this year, and viewers have been patiently awaiting Part 2 to be released (thankfully it was released on October 7th!). Ashton Kutcher stars as a former semi-pro football player who returns home to help run the family business. With Ashton Kutcher involved, you know it's going to be funny. The trials and tribulations that this family goes through when he returns home is not only heartwarming, but hilarious!

4. NCIS

If you're into crime shows, NCIS is the show to watch. NCIS stands for Naval Criminal Investigative Service and follows Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs and his journey through the Marines that led him to become the leader of his own criminal investigative team. NCIS began in 2003 and is currently in its 14th season.

5. Young and Hungry

If you remember Emily Osment on Hannah Montana, this is definitely not the same girl. Young and Hungry focuses on Gabi, an aspiring chef who gets hired by a wealthy tech entrepreneur Josh as a personal chef. Their relationship becomes much more than just work-related, and it's hilarious to go on the rollercoaster ride with Josh and Gabi! Ashley Tisdale, one of the stars of High School Musical, is the producer of the show!

6. Last Man Standing


If you're a fan of Tim Allen, this is the perfect show for you. Mark Baxter is a man's man, however, the last man standing in a house of four women! Tim Allen's sarcastic humor is bound to make you giggle!

7. The Vampire Diaries

The Vampire Diaries is based in Mystic Falls, where two very handsome brothers (who happen to be vampires) meet Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev) and she changes their lives forever. This is the perfect romance show, similar to Twilight. Are you Team Damon, or Team Stefan? I promise you that halfway through the show, you'll change teams.

8. Reign

Reign just so happens to be my latest favorite show. If you're into kings and queens from hundreds of years ago, Reign will hook you! Mary, Queen of Scotland is the main character in the show. She was arranged as a child to marry Prince Francis of France, to unite their countries. When she finally grows of age to marry Francis, there are many obstacles in her way. With Queen Elizabeth fighting to take over Scotland and France on top of ruling England, Mary has her work cut out for her to protect her country.


These are just a few of my favorite shows to binge watch on Netflix! I encourage you to watch a few episodes and see how you like it, if you get hooked.. I cant say I didn't warn you!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
