Since my family got Netflix years ago, I've entertained myself by watching many of the shows it has to offer. I know how tedious it can be to choose what you want to watch next, so I'm here to help. I've given each show I've seen (excluding reality tv) a score out of 10 along with some additional information. Hopefully this may help ease your Netflix viewing woes. (Update: I have tried my best to include trigger warnings for shows I remember deal with sensitive topics at some point. I'm sure I forgot some though, so please make sure to look them up if you are concerned before watching)
