Netflix Recommendations #2

As it's now the holidays, for some of us that means a lot of time with the tv/ Netflix!
I personally watch Netflix a lot throughout the year. However if you're looking for some prime watching here is my list of netflix recommendations.

Orange is the New Black

I know I'm late to this one, but if you're looking for a funny & witty series to get into this will be perfect for you. I will warn you that this programme has quite a lot of sexual content, so it's definitely not for children. The first series was so good I ended up binge watching it. I'm not that into the second series at the moment though.

Scream

Another Netflix exclusive I believe. This series is exactly was I love about AHS (American Horror Story), they have approximately 13 hours to create a story & scare the shit out of you. This series is obviously based off the Scream movies, however there are some differences. They have also left it VERY open for the second series too! Even my mom, who isn't into horror, enjoyed this for its crime & 'who done it' elements.

Louis Theroux - Extreme Love: Autism

I wanted to go with something a little different as my last recommendation, a documentary. Netflix actually have a great/ vast section of documentaries & I love a good documentary! I happened to just find this very insightful one in the Louis Theroux series. This episode focuses on children with Autism. Personally I think this is something everyone could do with learning more about! I have already studied autism in A level Psychology, but this documentary really hits you & allows you an insight into how complex autism is.

Netflix Recommendations #1

I love Netflix!
I'm sure most of you guys do too, so here are some of my current recommendations on what to watch.

This list is going to be pretty varied, but I figure that way there should be something for everyone!


1. Lie To Me



















I loved this show when it first aired back in 2009! I have to say that it certainly hasn't aged, which is great. It would probably be classed as a Crime Drama series. However it's a little different from the usual, as it's not about the physical evidence. It's bases on Tim Roth's character (Cal Lightman) reading people's faces & body language. At first that sounds a bit silly but they actually make it very scientific in the series.

2. American Horror Story



















Firstly if you haven't heard of this show.. where have you been?!
The first three series are available on Netflix & they've not long finished airing the fourth on tv. If you like horror you'll love this! Even if you don't like horror though you should give this one a go! It's creepy I'll give you that, but they have a whole series to scare you so it's not quite the same as a 90 minute horror flick of intense fear & gore. It's quite sexually explicit too, so not exactly suitable for younger viewers.

3. Friday Night Dinner



















If you love English comedy shows you'll love this. It's a similar vain to The Inbetweeners, featuring Simon Bird who played Will in the show. It's based on a Jewish family who get together every Friday night to have dinner, however it's never that simple! Everything that could go wrong does and it's full of those 'oh god no' cringe moments. The first two series are on Netflix & the third is still available on 4OD if you love it that much.

I hope you guys found this helpful!
