The Crown

I never knew how fascinating the history of the British Royal Family was until I watched this show. If you’re a fan of Princess Diana and are interested in the Royal Family drama then you must watch this four-season series. The Crown portrays the life of Queen Elizabeth II starting from her childhood when she learns that her father, King George VI, is dying and she is next in line and quickly becomes Queen. By watching this story unfold, you will get a whole new perspective of what it’s like to be a Royal and how no matter what drama or crisis they face, the crown and their duty comes first. You’ll see everything Queen Elizabeth II had to face while getting a sneak peek into each Royal Member’s life like Princess Dianna and what she went through in her marriage. 

 

Dead to Me

If you love a good action-filled, dramatic, and highly suspenseful plot then this is the show for you! Dead to Me is about a friendship that blossoms between two ladies named Jen and Judy who meet at a therapy group for widows. Both ladies become instant best friends with hotheaded wild personalities. Jen is a real estate agent based in Laguna Beach, California, raising her children while searching for the hit-and-run driver who killed her husband. As the plot thickens, you will learn that someone in Jen’s life is not quite who she expected them to be.

Dream Home Makeover  

Dream Home Makeover is the best home-improvement series I’ve ever seen. This show just might be the escapist series you need right about now. This show is about the wholesome and affable couple Shea and Syd McGee, who own a design studio and online store called Studio McGee, @studiomcgee on Instagram. They have the most stunning interior designs you’ll ever see with a modern feel with whites and earthy modern tones. I wish this show could go on forever because I am so obsessed with how talented this down-to-earth couple is.

Wine Country

If you love comedy movies then you must watch this. I have never laughed so hard at a movie before in my life, just thinking about this movie makes me want to watch it again! The plot involves a group of longtime girlfriends who take a break from work life and family life to meet up for a wine-soaked birthday getaway in Napa Valley. However, their perfectly planned weekend turns messier by the minute. The movie stars the hilarious SNL alums Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, Ana Gasteyer, Paula Pell, and Emily Spivey. This is such an enjoyable movie to watch during a girl’s night or even by yourself, no matter what it’ll give you a good laugh. 

 

Million Dollar Beach House

If you too are obsessed with googling stunning luxurious homes on the internet when you’re bored and are interested in the world of Lux Real Estate, this is your show. This show is full of competition and fierce energy involving drama between a high-end real estate firm of young and hungry agents who are fighting to seal the deal on selling luxurious multi-million dollar listings in the Hamptons. We get an inside peek of what it’s like to work for one of the most high-end real estate firms in the northeast and how hard the group has to work to finally make that sale which can earn them millions.
