You have no plans for the weekend, but you do have a nice comfy couch, blanket, and a fridge full of food and snacks, so what’s next? Binge-watching some amazing shows on Netflix, of course! What should you watch, though?
Orange Is the New Black (OITNB)
Chances are you may have seen Orange is the New Black since it ended in 2019, but if you haven’t, you should give it a watch, and even if you have seen it, it’s definitely a Netflix original show that you can watch again. Follow along for seven seasons of Piper, a corporate powerhouse turned female inmate, and the friendships and relationships she makes as she serves her sentence.
Stranger Things
Stranger Things is one of Netflix’s most popular shows to date with season 4 volume 2 premiering July 1, 2022. Stranger Things follows the story of a group of kids who accidentally stumble onto supernatural forces and the government’s exploits to hide them. The show is filmed a lot like an early 1980s science fiction or horror movie which contributes a lot to its cult-like following.
Chef’s Table
Are you a foodie at heart? Then sink your teeth right into the Netflix original series Chef’s Table. There is six seasons worth of this one to binge and each episode takes you into the kitchen of a world-renowned chef. Make sure the fridge is full or that you have your favorite food delivery service on speed dial before you start this one!
Sweet Tooth
Sweet Tooth is the post-apocalyptic tale that occurs ten years after a viral pandemic that led to hybrid babies being born with human and animal characteristics. The series follows Gus, a deer boy who leaves the forest he has called home in search of his mother. Season two for this one is coming soon!
The Haunting of Hill House
The Haunting of Hill House is a horror mini-series that moves between the past and present of the Hill House and the paranormal effects still felt by the five adult Craven children to this day. For Netflix, it is the first series in a Haunting anthology. The second series in the anthology is Bly Manor and it is also now available for streaming (or binge-watching) on Netflix.
Bridgerton
If you are a Shonda Rhimes fan (Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal), or you really enjoy steamy historical romances, then Bridgerton is the show for you. Note, there is a fair amount of nudity and intimacy in this one so it’s not for when the kids are around.
Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story
This Bridgerton prequel was a huge hit for Bridgerton fans and haters alike. While the story exists in the Bridgerton-verse, it had a very different tone from the other two seasons, becoming more dark and gritty as opposed to the cotton-candy love story the original Bridgerton story shows. Even if you weren’t a fan of the original series, checking out the new show is a must!
The Crown
Are you a fan of British royalty? Then The Crown on Netflix might be your weekend binge-watching go-to. This show follows the reign of Queen Elizabeth II from her marriage to Prince Philip and coronation to more modern times. There are four seasons available for streaming now with a 5th anticipated in the Fall of 2022.

With the 4th and final season now aired you can binge watch this one from start to finish.
The Witcher
Looking for a fantastical science fiction series to binge this weekend? The Witcher might be the perfect show for you then. Starring Henry Cavill as a monster hunter named Geralt, the series is based on the book and the video games, but there are plenty of twists and turns to keep you watching even if you have read or played them.
F Is for Family
F is for Family is an irreverent animated comedy written by and starring comedian Bill Burr. Set in the 1970s and based on the childhood experiences of Burr growing up in Massachusetts, this one is definitely worth a watch if you are a Bill Burr fan, and if you aren’t you just might become one.
Fuller House
Did you grow up watching Full House? If so, and even if you didn’t you might enjoy Fuller House on Netflix, a feel-good family-friendly sitcom that gives you a look at the adult lives of the children from Full House. All grown-up now, and with children of their own, this show is a binge-able treat for the whole family.
Bloodline
Looking for a show to binge that will keep you on the edge of your seat? Try Bloodline, a Netflix original with an amazing cast full of recognizable faces about a well-respected family living in the Florida Keys. The past and its secrets always find a way to resurface and this is true for the Rayburn family as well.
Santa Clarita Diet
If zombies are your thing then this is the Netflix streaming binge for you. Starring Timothy Olyphant and Drew Barrymore as married realtors living a normal life raising their teenage daughter, until Sheila (Barrymore) dies and comes back to life as a zombie. If you are looking for laughs and gore then the three seasons of this show are a must-watch for you.
