The summer is basically here and the weather outside has gotten dramatically better. What better way to spend your summer than by watching Netflix inside for hours and hours? Netflix has released some great new TV shows and movies, but I decided to shorten down my favorites into a list of five shows and movies that I have to watch by the end of this summer. Beware: I have a weird taste in television and movies, and not everyone may enjoy these shows. Here's my Netflix Bucket List for this summer
1. Chelsea Does...
"Chelsea Does..." is a brand new Netflix original series that highlights the shenanigans of Chelsea Handler. I was raised to love Chelsea Handler in her nightly show, "Chelsea Lately." "Chelsea Does..." is a very funny show that tackles a few issues in our society. I am definitely going to finish watching this new series, and I can't wait to see what else Handler has to offer.
2. Trailer Park Boys
"Trailer Park Boys" is one of the funniest shows I've ever seen. I haven't seen the new season of "Trailer Park Boys" yet, but this season is definitely on my bucket list. My favorite character would have to be Bubbles. This show is honestly so damn funny. It's hard to imagine a summer without the "Trailer Park Boys" on repeat!
3. Chef's Table
"Chef's Table" has some of the best photography and cinematography of any show I've seen on Netflix. This show follows a new chef every episode and tells their story. The first and only episode I've seen is the Chicagoan chef. All chefs and their restaurants are outstanding, and the show does a great job in capturing your attention through the use of stunning filming wherever they happen to be.
4. Border Security: Australia's Frontline
This show kind of reminded me of "Cops," but an Australian version. The show is centered around the lives of the Australian Border Security at one of the nation's airports. At times, the show can be kind of funny and bizarre. At other times, it can get a little serious. But all in all, I would have to add this show to my Netflix bucket list. "Australia's Border Security" isn't really new, since it's been on air since 2004. But it seems like a good show to watch when there's not much to do.
5. Janis: Little Girl Blue
My obsession with Janis Joplin just got a lot more intense. This brand new documentary about the singer's turbulent life delves into the personal writings and journals of Janis in the 1960s. This documentary seems like a great way to spend a rainy day or a day when you call in sick to work. The documentary seems to have a lot of real footage from Janis's life and adventures, and I hope it lives up to its reputation!
