8 Series To Watch This Winter
Winter is almost here, the days are shorter, and you may spend more time indoors and at home. On a chilly day, there is nothing better than curling up with a good book or a binge-worthy show. Of course, there are tons of options of things to watch but choosing can prove tedious and frustrating. Well, I have some pretty good suggestions for you in this blog and I have something for everyone on my list.
I enjoyed and was entertained by the series on this list and think you may also enjoy one or all of them. These shows can be found on Netflix, Hulu, Disney Plus or Apple TV. So here is my list of the five series to watch this fall.
8 Shows To Stream This Winter
Cross
Series adaptation of James Patterson novels about the complicated and brilliant detective, Alex Cross. - IMDB
There are more than 30 books in the Alex Cross series and I think I have read them all. This new series is fantastic and does them justice. It’s exciting and much like the books, a page-turner. Great characters and great acting.
You can currently watch the series on Amazon Prime.
Agatha All Along
A spell-bound Agatha Harkness regains freedom thanks to a teen's help. Intrigued by his plea, she embarks on the Witches' Road trials to reclaim her powers and discover the teen's motivations. - IMDB
This was a fun, witchy watch. Although it is Marvel, it doesn’t feel like it, which was nice. It is dark and suspenseful and keeps you asking “what is she up to?”.
You can watch Agatha All Along on Disney+ or Hulu.
Rivals
Follows Rupert Campbell-Black and Tony Baddingham as they have a longstanding rivalry that comes to a head. - IMDB
I have to be honest, the IMDB description does not do this series justice. Rivals is based on very popular books and is spicy. There is lots of nudity and sex but plenty of plot and intrigue as well. The ending of season one shocked me and I cannot wait for more.
Rivals will return for a second season on Hulu.
Shrinking
A grieving therapist starts to tell his clients exactly what he thinks. Ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making huge changes to people's lives - including his own.- IMDB
Shrinking is a great show. It deals with friendships, relationships, and parenting after the loss of a parent. It is funny, sad, and relatable in so many ways. Season two is currently premiering on Apple TV.
The Lincoln Lawyer
Need a lawyer? Call Mickey Haller. He runs his law practice out of his Lincoln, and he's ready to hit the gas. Moving through Los Angeles, he takes cases while balancing a private life that includes being a father and having two ex-wives. - IMDB
The Lincoln Lawyer is a great legal drama from the defense perspective, which we rarely get to see. Each season follows multiple cases Mickey is working on as well as his personal and professional drama. Season 3 recently premiered and ended with a big cliffhanger.
You can watch all three seasons right now on Netflix.
Nobody Wants This
An agnostic sex podcaster and a newly single rabbi fall in love; discovering if their relationship survives their wildly different lives and meddling families. - IMDB
Nobody Wants This is a cute romantic comedy that is easily binge-worthy. You can watch season 1 on Netflix now and it has been picked up for a second season.
Silo
Men and women live in a giant silo underground with several regulations which they believe are in place to protect them from the toxic and ruined world on the surface. - IMDB
Silo has become one of my favorite science fiction series. It has layers and layers of mystery. The cast is great and the visuals of the massive silo are breathtaking.
Season 2 is currently showing on Apple TV.
Virgin River
Seeking a fresh start, nurse practitioner Melinda Monroe moves from Los Angeles to a remote Northern California town and is surprised by what and who she finds. - IMDB
Virgin River is a little Hallmark-y but it is nice to watch. There is romance and intrigue and sweet wholesome stories set in the picturesque Northern California. The show is very popular but don’t let that stop you from giving it a try.
Season 6 premieres on December 19th.
You now have plenty of options to choose from for your next binge-worthy show. Any recommendations for me? Let me know. Enjoy!
