Netflix: Everyone’s favorite pastime. Where would we be without Netflix? With all the movies, T.V shows, and comedy acts, there’s almost nothing else you would want to do. Think of every single season of every single series ever, and let’s not forget about the Netflix Originals! Whether you’re at a sleepover watching movies, keeping up with a show with all your roommates, or just binge-watching while you’re laying in bed, it’s all because of Netflix. I personally don’t know how I ever lived without it. There are so many great shows that I’ve never seen on TV.
I never watched "Gossip Girl" until I got Netflix, and I never watched "Gilmore Girls" either. Now, those are two of my favorite shows! Netflix is one of the greatest investments anyone could ever make. There’s only one problem: the funk you enter after finishing a show. That's me right now. I’ve currently been watching "Weeds" and I’m absolutely obsessed with it, but recently, that show ended. We all struggle with what to do with our lives after our show is over. I remember when I finished "Orange Is The New Black," I had no idea what to do with my free time. Finishing a show is almost like breaking up with an ex-boyfriend. You don’t really know what to do afterward. We all go through a few things in order to get back to a good routine, but it’s all worth it once we find that next perfect show for us.
You take your time watching those last few episodes, simply because you don’t want the show to end.
