5 Binge Worthy Shows To Stream In The New Year
Winter is now upon us and the quarantine and pandemic precautions continue for many of us around the world. As we stay inside to stay warm and to stay healthy, we need something to occupy our time. I am all about a good book, but I am also all about a great Netflix and Amazon Prime Video binge.
Here’s what worth a watch this new year on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.
The Expanse
In the 24th century, a disparate band of antiheroes unravels a vast conspiracy that threatens the Solar System's fragile state of cold war.
The Expanse is one of my favorite shows and on December 16th the series is back for its fifth season. There are 10 episodes this season but unlike last season where all 10 episodes were dropped at once, only the first 3 episodes are available immediately and the rest will premiere each Wednesday. Although not a total binge for the current season, there are four other seasons to catch up on.
The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Part 4
As her 16th birthday nears, Sabrina must choose between the witch world of her family and the human world of her friends. Based on the Archie comic.
The fourth and final season of the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina returns on December 31st. This is a fun, dark show that is sure to send some chills and thrills your way this winter.
Lucifer
Lucifer Morningstar has decided he's had enough of being the dutiful servant in Hell and decides to spend some time on Earth to better understand humanity. He settles in Los Angeles - the City of Angels.
I came late to the Lucifer fandom. I never watched it on network television, but once it was recommended to me on Netflix I gave it a try and was lured in by Lucifer’s cheeky charm. The second half of season 5, part 2, is returning to Netflix soon, but until that time all 5 1/2 seasons are currently available for binging.
Bridgerton
Wealth, lust, and betrayal set in the backdrop of Regency-era England, seen through the eyes of the powerful Bridgerton family.
I am a sucker for a period piece and I love a great romance, especially Regency. Bridgerton is new from Shonda Rhimes and it’s based on Julia Quinn's novels with the popular anonymous gossip columnist Lady Whistledown. I read all of these books well over a decade ago, but never forgot them.
Watch the Bridgerton series bring Julia Quinn’s novels to life with a Shonda Rhimes twist on Netflix beginning December 25th.
The Boys
A group of vigilantes set out to take down corrupt superheroes who abuse their superpowers.
The Boys is an Amazon Prime Video original. If violence, sex, action, and foul language is your thing, then this is the show for you. One of the best lines and takeaways from this show is “don’t mistake nice for good”. Life lessons in the harshest way possible is what this show offers, in a fun, action-packed, kick-ass way.
Two seasons are currently available to watch. So binge-worthy!
All of the above shows are perfect for an anytime binge watch. You cannot go wrong with any of these so pick one to start watching. I do no think you will be disappointed.
