Spring break is fast approaching, and most of us Buffs will be leaving campus for the week. Some of us are heading home for relaxation and home cooked meals, while others are traveling to Cabo and will be in need of a day in bed after a long night out. Either way, binge watching a new series is inevitable. To help you out, hereâs a list of some of the best options out there:
1. Girls
No matter what your opinion is of Lena Dunham, sheâs made a hilarious and relatable show about 20 somethings making their way through life in New York City. Itâs like Sex and the City, but far less glamorous, and way more entertaining, in my opinion.Â
2. Greyâs Anatomy
If you want to laugh, cry, and punch your laptop screen within an hour, this is your show. And if you donât know what âyour personâ means (AKA youâre way behind on the times), you need to get started on Greyâs immediately.
3. Scream Queens
Emma Roberts, Jamie Lee Curtis, Lea Michele, and Ariana Grande all in one show? It might sound like a hot mess, but itâs brilliantly clever and almost too easy to binge on.
4. The Vampire Diaries
Staring at the Salvatore brothers for an extended period of time is probably the most relaxing way to spend your break. Just look at those eyes (and ignore the meal still on Stefanâs face).
5. Chelsea Does
Fairly new to Netflix, Chelsea Handler documents her doing things (Marriage, Silicon Valley, Racism, Drugs). Literally, thatâs it. But itâs Chelsea Handler, so itâs inevitably hilarious, and surprisingly heartwarming.
6. Gilmore Girls
My mom and I reÂwatched a majority of this classic over winter break, and Iâm willing to bet weâll be doing the same despite the warmer weather. Lorelai and Rory are mother/daughter goals, and youâll have to watch to see why.
7. Broad City
Comedy Central gold. Itâs a little bit crude and a whole lot hilarious. Thatâs a lie, itâs sometimes painfully crude, and thatâs the beauty of it. If you want some secondÂhand embarrassment, watch Ilana and Abbi live their daily lives in the most absurd ways possible.
8. Gossip Girl
A classic, and a must if you havenât already seen it. The drama of the Upper East Side will make all your problems suddenly seem infinitesimal.
9. Game of Thrones
The Seven Kingdoms will give you some of the most exhilarating action youâve ever seen, and youâre lying if you donât cover your eyes every so often. And donât worry, the show comes back to HBO on April 24th for season six, so you have plenty of time to catch up.
10. Once Upon a Time
A grownÂup adaptation of our favorite childhood fairy tales, and with some added adventures and excitement thrown into the mix. Plus, just look at Captain Hook there, isnât he charming?
