Netflix and Quarantine.

Hello ladies and gentlemen. I hope as you stay home to help put out the fire (the pandemic) you are keeping sane. I have been using this time to get things done around the house as well as do things I have been putting off. and of course Netflixing!

Here is a list of Shows and Stand up comedies that will have you screaming (in laughter, shock, and amazement).

Let’s start with some shows

Shows

• YOU
  There are 2 seasons and if you haven’t started it, you are missing out. It isn’t a show I would watch with my mom and dad though, a lot of sexual scenes (but nothing like Game of Thrones). It is definitely going to keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time. Actually, during season 2, at first I was like — the hell is this, BUT KEEP WATCHING. The writers did SUCH AN INCREDIBLE JOB. I was guessing some of the things but it had such a plot twist that I did not see coming!! I was literally screaming OMGOSH as I had my headphones in and everyone around me confused. MUST WATCH.
  
• New Girl
  You most likely have seen this already. I started watching this earlier this year for the first time and my gosh it is HILARIOUS. Nick is my favorite, well Schmitt is pretty hilarious too. Hmm, then again so is Jess. I really can’t decide who I love most, but as I am watching it again, I think Nick is by far my most favorite with all of his puns!! If you want a good laugh, watch New Girl! It is super witty and comical. There are a lot of sexual references, so I wouldn’t watch it with my parents or even siblings.
  
• Black Mirror
  This is an insane series involving futuristic technology. The idea behind it makes you nervous and scared. I have only watched a handful of them. You do not need to watch it in sequence. I was pretty invested in a few of the episodes:
  Season 4 Episode 2 – Arkangel.
  Season 4, Episode 6 – Black Museum.
  Season 3, Episode 3 – Shut up and Dance.
  
• Love is Blind
  It is quite interesting. It is a reality TV show, and it is one that you can’t help yourself but get invested in. I talked about this in my story before. It is just one of those shows that you feel silly for watching, but you can’t help it.
  
• The Haunting of Hill House
  This is SUCH A GREAT SHOW! The writers did an excellent job. You HAVE to pay close attention because you miss out on important information if you don’t. It is creepy and fair warning you will get scared if you are watching it by yourself. I encourage watching it with family members that also like thriller/horror. It is NOT gorry. Definitely one I would watch with my mom.
  
• The 100
  I was in love with season 1 and 2 but it died out for me season 3, to be honest. However, it is SO, SO, SO GOOD! I watched this a while ago, but one I always recommend. Their acting skills = ON POINT. I don’t think there is even one that does an average job. Actually all of these shows, their acting skills are absolutely incredible. You won’t be disappointed.
  
• Gotham
  This is another series that I watched the first and second, but never got back into it. MY GOSH, the production of this show. They are all so fantastic. It keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time. I LOVE Penguin, although a bad guy, the person that plays him really does a fantastic job. All of them do really. This is also one I could watch with family. It is a little intense here and there, but nothing too major.
  
• Anne with an E
  This is one of the CUTEST shows I have seen since Gilmore Girls. The setting is in the late 19 century in Canada. It is just so… I can’t describe the excitement I get watching it. It gives you this sense of realization about life now and then — how simple things were back then and how different. It is super cute.

Stand-up Comedy

You guys, if you have not seen the following, you are MISSING OUT! They are HILARIOUS! I was laughing from the start to the end. There are so many stand-up comedy acts now on Netflix, but these ones are A MUST-WATCH! I love Hasan Minhaj, he is one of my favorites. His Patriot Act show is also amazing! I actually watched Ronny Chieng after seeing him open up for Hasan Minhaj live. Ronny Chieng is SO DAMN FUNNY.

• Ricky Gervais Humanity
• Asian Comedian Destroys America (Ronny Chieng)
• Aziz Ansari Right now
• Hasan Minhaj Homecoming king
• Kevin Hart Irresponsible
