Hi everyone! I think we can all agree, Netflix has been a life saver these last few weeks during lock-down! So I thought I’d share with you what I’ve been binge watching while being off work.
TV series
The Vampire Diaries
One programme I watch over and over again is The Vampire diaries. I love this show, and I’ve seen it so many times I don’t have to concentrate on it so it’s the perfect thing to have on in the background.
The Big Bang Theory
Another show I love having on in the background is The Big Bang Theory. Again, it’s not something I need to focus on so it’s great for when I’m doing other things. I recently restarted it from the beginning.
Dr Who (removed 2021)
Aaron and I have started watching Dr Who from the start of the Christopher Eccleston series, and so far we’re really enjoying it. I used be obsessed with it when I was younger and it’s been really great watching it in the evenings, it brings back so many memories.
Films
Easy A
One film I’ve discovered and been completely obsessed with is Easy A. I absolutely love it and have watched it multiple times over the last few weeks. For some reason I find it very relatable.
I Fell Pretty (removed 2021)
I saw this in the cinema when it came out and loved it, so ever since it was put onto Netflix I’ve watched it numerous times. It’s such a feel good film with a great message behind it.
Just go with it
Lastly, another film I watch all the time is Just Go With It. It’s such a random film but i really love watching it – it’s really funny and I love both Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston.
I seem to get myself stuck in a rut with series and films and watch the same ones over and over again. I think it’s because I’m always doing something else so I like to have things on in the background that I don’t actually have to concentrate on. I would like to watch the second season of YOU over the next few weeks, as I loved the first season!
Anyway, that’s what I’ve been watching on Netflix recently! Let me know what you guys have been watching, and anything you’d recommend!
Until next time!

I love The Vampire Diaries too but haven’t watched it in ages! I’m watching Once Upon A Time with my husband at the moment, I’ve seen them all before and he hasn’t so it’s fun watching them all over again. I also love Stranger Things, Sons of Anarchy, 13 Reasons Why and The Umbrella Academy. It’s the perfect time to watch The Umbrella Academy too because season 2 is coming in July! Great post

You’ve got some great options here, I LOVED I Feel Pretty. We recently watched The Wrong Missy which had me cracking up. I’ve also been rewatching past seasons of RuPaul’s Drag Race which always make me smile. That’s quickly become my go to background show when I’m blogging or working on something else.

Oh man, I love everything Adam Sandler. He is such a funny guy, and some of his movies are simply hilarious while offering some deep thinking as well.
My family loved Easy A; that girl has an attitude! But in a good way. Since my sisters watched all of Vampire Diaries; a long task, I think the only thing I have not seen from this list is I Feel Pretty, so I have to check that out!

When I was younger, I went through a phase where I was OBSESSED with the film Just Go With It. I don’t know why, but I literally watched it like 3x in one week because I found it so funny. I haven’t seen it in ages, but your post has reminded me that I should definitely give it a rewatch!
Great post 😊 and definitely give You season 2 a go – it’s great!
