Although I feel very guilty when my Friday nights are now consumed by Netflix marathons, and relaxation was just turning on the television, instead of reading books. I would love to read more, and reading more is a personal goal I have for myself, especially over break. There are many books I want to read... we'll get to that in another post. ;)
I had to share my favorite Netflix picks of TV shows with you. Please let me know what you like, and any recommendations you have! I'm making a separate post about Netflix movies... if that says anything about my love for Netflix.
Gossip Girl: Started the show through Netflix, and thankfully finished in time to watch the final season live! It's my all time favorite show. I'm obsessed with Blair Waldorf's style, attitude and personality. I'd love to be Blair in another world. Don't even get me started on my love for Chuck Bass. Another reason why I'd love to be Queen B. Chuck Bass is the love of my life. Gossip Girl has a little bit of everything: drama, suspense, romance, scandal, and funny moments. And it's set in New York City, with real sites there. Romanticizing New York City in a TV show is an A+ in my book. AND the fashion, swoon. Gossip Girl is the perfect combination of everything I love the most. No wonder it's my favorite show.
The complete series of Gossip Girl is currently on Netflix. (Seasons 1-6)
The fashion in Gossip Girl is so beautiful; it makes me sad that I'm not a wealthy Upper East Sider with millions of dollars to spend.

Chuck and Blair: the dream couple. It's embarrassing how many times I've cried over Chuck and Blair scenes... especially the scenes I've seen hundreds of times... and still bawl at.

New Girl: Another favorite show. Jessica Day is me. The show is cute, quirky, upbeat, light, and always makes me laugh hysterically. Jess is awkward, cute, and almost every girl can relate to her in some way or another. The actress for Jess, Zooey Deschanel is gorgeous and adorable, and is the writer of the scripts for New Girl- so impressive! Jess is an elementary school teacher, who's cute, quirky, and different. She ends up moving in with 3 guys she met on the Internet, and it is the cutest show ever. Must watch!
Seasons 1 & 2 of New Girl are on Netflix. New Girl is currently on its 3rd season.

Who can't relate to this? Oh, and in this episode, Winston gets his man period. Intrigued yet?

White Collar: If Matt Bomer isn't a good enough excuse to watch White Collar, the intriguing storyline is. Matt Bomer plays Neal Caffrey, the suave, handsome con-man who has many talents. Neal helps a FBI agent catch other white-collar thieves by using the skills he would've used to commit the crime. In addition to helping out the FBI agent, Neal has an ulterior motive. The show is witty, fresh, exciting, and while each case is different, there is a story line throughout the season, that keeps you hooked. If the show's story line isn't enough... there's always the chance to watch Matt Bomer.
Seasons 1, 2 & 3 of White Collar are on Netflix. White Collar is currently on its 4th season.
How cute is he?!

Arrow: Every time I was texting my friend A, (which is quite often) she was watching Arrow. We have similar taste in TV shows, and Arrow looked really interesting. I started it, and instantly became hooked! If you like superhero and action & adventure movies, this show is made for you. If not, you'll still like it. Arrow has revenge, adventure, mystery, drama, suspense and plot twists all throughout the show. Who is good? Who is bad? You find out more about Arrow's mysterious past, his secret identity, and those associated with his past. Warning... season 1 ends on a total cliffhanger! And I am dying to know what happens next. I'm really hoping Netflix adds season 2 as soon as possible. (Oh, and did I mention the main character is not too bad to look at??)
Season 1 of Arrow is on Netflix. Arrow is currently on its 2nd season.

Seasons 1-6 of Psych are currently on Netflix. Psych is currently on its final season, its 8th.

How I Met Your Mother: Light, funny and cute. As Ted Mosby tells the story of how he meets his wife to his kids; there are many crazy adventures that lead up to meeting the mother, with his friends Marshall, Lily, Robin, and Barney. Like Gossip Girl, How I Met Your Mother is set in New York City. With creative episodes, like racing via different transportation modes, and finding the best hamburger in NYC... How I Met Your Mother is perfect for any time.
Seasons 1-8 of How I Met Your Mother are currently on Netflix. How I Met Your Mother is currently on its last season, its 9th.

Sherlock: British TV show. Shall I say more? So witty, creative, and who doesn't love a good mystery? Episodes are 90 minutes long, and keep you hooked til the very last minute. Sherlock and his friend Watson make quite the duo, and Sherlock himself is quite the character; mysterious, observant, intelligent and arrogant. It's hard not to fall under his spell. The story line is so crazy; the end of season 2 will have you begging for season 3. One of the best shows ever written. The storyline and episodes are phenomenal.
Seasons 1 & 2 of Sherlock are currently on Netflix. Sherlock is currently on its 3rd season.

Dexter: I haven't finished this show yet, but it's so different and so good! Dexter is different than everyone else, he enjoys killing. However, he is forced to act normal as much as he can, so people don't suspect him. He works for the police department along, and while the police department isn't the brightest- Dexter is. Dexter has an ulterior motive to take down the criminals, (not your typical stole money type, hurting innocent people, etc.) and make them suffer. Dexter shares his point of view in the show, and the storyline gets really interesting starting in the first episode with a man who knows about Dexter's secret... who is he? What does he want with Dexter? Well Dexter accepts this man wants to play a game with him, and Dexter is ready to play. Pretty morbid, highly addicting.
The entire series of Dexter is on Netflix. (Seasons 1-8)
His nickname? The avenging angel.

Seasons 1-5 of Mad Men are currently on Netflix. Season 7 of Mad Men (its last season) premieres this Spring.

One Tree Hill: While the first episode didn't hook me, after hearing everyone talk about their love for One Tree Hill; I decided to give it another shot. I'm so glad I did, this is the show I'm currently watching. And. It. Is. Good. Half brothers and basketball superstars Nathan and Lucas Scott rival on the basketball court, and off. Over time, you'll be shocked by how much the characters' personality have changed. Some of these personalities are enough to keep you hooked. And so much drama! I don't want to spoil it, but AH. You'll want to try this show out.
The complete series of One Tree Hill is on Netflix. (Seasons 1-9)
