11 Netflix TV Shows To Binge Watch Over Winter Break

Winter break is the best break from college because it's a big enough time apart from everything going on in your college town but not long enough to where you start having withdrawals from your friends. Over summer you don't get to watch Netflix shows because you're constantly at the pool but during winter break it is the perfect time to cuddle under your favorite blanket with hot chocolate (& Baileys) as you binge watch every show on Netflix. Even though our parents may get mad at us for wanting to lock ourselves in our rooms for 12 hours straight but they need to understand this is needed in order to keep our sanity. Here are some shows that don't have too many seasons so they are actually do-able to watch completely during the month off from school:

Throughout the series they learn that they aren't the only ones on the island and some of the characters realize it wasn't just coincidence that they were all on the same plane together.
