Don't Give Up On Netflix Just Yet

In This Article:

If you thought Netflix was headed towards their downfall- think again. The popular streaming site has released numerous new TV series and movies this summer, many of which gained massive amounts of attention from viewers.

Netflix is on the rise, yet again, and raising the quality of media produced.

If you don't believe me, keep reading to discover the best, newly released series on Netflix.


1. "Dead to Me"

Netflix's new series, "Dead to Me," is everything you want in a TV show and more. With constant drama, this murder-mystery will have your eyes glued to the screen. "Dead to Me" follows the friendship of a widowed woman and an optimistic stranger with monstrous secrets. Each episode captures their journey to find out who killed Jen's husband, while other drama unfolds along the way.

2. "Imposters"

If you enjoyed "Dead to Me," you will love Netflix's "Imposters." "Imposters" features the life of professional con-artist, Maddie, and the enemies she makes through her journey. This fast-paced show follows the scheming and mistrusting Maddie, who is constantly dodging the chaos which seems to follow her. Exciting and intense, you won't want to miss a second of this show.

3. "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce"

I urge you to overlook the cheesy title and give this realistic, drama-filled series a chance. "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce" focuses on the life of a self-made author, which comes crashing down when she finds her self navigating a divorce. Abby and her close friends will keep you laughing and make this binge-watch worth your while.

4. "Good Girls"

Starring "Park and Recreation's" beloved Retta, "Good Girls" has great acting, laughable moments, and intense drama. Three seemingly-innocent suburban moms are faced with financial troubles and will do almost anything to make ends meet. These once normal moms suddenly find themselves planning a robbery behind closed doors while trying to maintain their perfect reputations and marriages.

5. "Black Mirror"

If you haven't heard, now you have. "Black Mirror's" new season with Miley Cyrus is thought-provoking and strange, which may not be a surprise if you're familiar with this series. The new season though features realistic advances in video-gaming which are sure to make your jaw drop. If you enjoyed the previous seasons of "Black Mirror," the newest episodes will not disappoint your expectations!

6. "Friends From College"

If you're looking for a more light-hearted show, I recommend "Friends From College." This feel-good comedy surrounds the lives of a group of friends and their journey years after finishing college. Keegan-Michael Key stars in this series, so you can be assured you will laugh.

You no longer have to rewatch "Grey's Anatomy"- these six new shows will become your new go-to's. Sit back, relax, and enjoy my personal favorite, binge-worthy shows.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

One Book Made Me Question Existence In Its Entirety

"The Stranger" by Albert Campus touches upon many heavy elements... but not in the way you expect. Although it touches upon the aspects of death and love, it also deals with a hidden philosophy similar to that of nihilism.

The story follows the short life events of Meursault, a Frenchman whose carelessness for his actions eventually ends him in jail and dependent on a jury of people to judge the ethicality of his decision and the punishment that he deserves. He eventually gets the death penalty and all throughout he is nonchalant and almost apathetic towards his situation. He finally snaps when the prison sends a priest to him to absolve him of his sins and to cajole him in confessing to the lord.
