As college students, we all have amazingly long winter breaks. They're great, but how do we fill the time? Get a job? Not a chance. Hang out with friends? No way. Go outside? Gross! We fill our time with Netflix, movies, and TV. I don't know about you guys, but I missed a lot of shows while I was at school because I didn't have cable. Coming home was the greatest thing all semester because you literally do nothing all day! There's all the time in the world to do whatever you want, and I have been spending a lot of my time doing nothing but watch Netflix. So in order to ring out the New Year and all the holiday spirit and now that things have calmed down, here are my top picks to watch on Netflix while we're all waiting to go back to school.

1. House of cards.

This show is amazing. First off, it's perfect timing for the upcoming inauguration. Secondly, not only is it wonderful acting wise, it's educational. I swear if I had watched this sophomore year I would've passed my AP Government test.

2. Friends.

This has nothing to do with education, it's just really funny. And it makes you wish you were one of their friends. Also if you haven't seen this by now, what are you doing?

3. The Office.

Also another one of these "if you haven't seen this by now, what are you doing?" And although the people of Dunder Mifflin Paper Co. seem miserable with doing work, this show makes you want to be a paper salesman. With Michael Scott as a boss, who wouldn't want to work there?!

4. Parks and Recreation.

It's understandable if you haven't seen this one yet, it took me a while to watch it too, but the people of Pawnee, Indiana — the fourth most obese city in the America— capture your hearts with their crazy problems, including the ongoing feud with their neighboring city, Eagleton.

5. Arrested Development.

With Michael Bluth taking over his father's companies financial troubles, and dealing with his spoiled and entitled siblings, there's no way you can't find this funny. Plus, who doesn't like Jason Bateman?

6. The Crown.

This one's for all the history buffs out there that love the royal family — like me — and would love to know more about Queen Elizabeth II's reign. This is your show.

7. Freaks and Geeks.

An oldie but a goodie. For all those that like to relive high school through a different view. This takes place in a high school stoner group and their adventures with each other. It also chronicles one of the girls' freshman brother and his geeky friends. Thus, Freaks and Geeks.

8. That 70's Show.

And lastly, behold! Yet another "if you haven't seen this by now, what are you doing?" Seriously we've all seen the memes and the gifs on various social media platforms, and you are seriously missing out if you have not seen this. Kind of a cross between friends and Freaks and Geeks to be honest.

Enjoy all you TV lovers!
