20 Netflix shows that will help you pass the time:
Here’s what’s worth watching
With many of us staying home these days, finding things to do is crucial to passing the time. In today’s post, I am going to be sharing 20 Netflix shows to binge-watch while you’re stuck at home.
Social distancing, self-isolation, and quarantine are three terms that we all are using these days.
Many of us have already decluttered our entire home (or at least put that on our “to-do while in pandemic” list), tried so many new recipes that we consider ourselves top chefts now, and read the pile of books we’d been meaning to get to since 2015.
If there is one excuse to binge-watch a new show without any interruptions, the COVID-19 situation is it.
Hopefully, sooner than later, we will be able to un-glue ourselves from Netflix and go and do the normal stuff. Like taking a walk without worrying about the 6 feet distance rule. Good times!
So, as we wait for the world to heal itself from the pandemic we are in, Netflix is going to be keeping many of us company.
While normally I’d be watching Friends for the 6th time (true story, btw), I’m ready for a new show to get completely immersed in.
If you’re looking for something new to stream on Netflix, consider adding these binge-worthy shows to your list.

Grace and Frankie is such a good show! You definitely will enjoy it.
Oh my god I started watching Jane the Virgin last week and it’s so so good!! Great post, thank you for sharing!
I love it!
I’m running out of shows to watch so thank you for making this list! I think I’m going to start Schitt’s Creek next!

That’s a good show, enjoy!
There’s no way I’m getting to all of these but I’m almost done with season 3 of Ozark and then will watch the Tiger King.
Tiger King is a crazy show. You’ll love it!
Thank you for sharing. I felt like I was running out of shows to binge on Netflix but you’ve inspired me to watch so much more.

Happy you found something from this list! 😊
I love so many of these! I’m currently working my way through Desperate Housewives again – luckily I have the boxset!
I miss Desperate Housewives! Such a good show!
Great list. Ozark would be my favourite but you’ve given me more to look at. I’m watching “The Valhalla Murders” right now, I highly recommend. Thanks for sharing,
Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll check it out.
So many good recommendations! Schitts Creek is easily one of my favorite shows ever! So damn funny! I’ve watched a lot of these and I’ve been thinking of checking out Cheer!
Thanks for sharing!
I really enjoyed Cheer, it’s so good!
There are so many great shows here! Love Is Blind and The Stranger are my most recent favourites. I’m always looking for new series to watch on Netflix and this post has given me a lot of inspiration – thank you for sharing, fab post! <3 xx

How good was The Stranger?! Loved it. Glad this post could help! ☺️
This is such a great list! I just finished binge watching Tiger King and I am almost done with season 3 of Ozark. I also love Schitt’s Creek; it’s so funny! I will try out some others on this list now since I am looking for some other ideas once I am done with Ozark. Thanks for sharing!
How crazy is Tiger King? 😳 My pleasure, I hope you find something you enjoy!
Haven’t seen any of these yet. We’ll have to give them a shot.
Awesome!
Oooh there are some amazing shows here! Definitely going to give them a go!
Love, Amie ❤
The Curvaceous Vegan
Definitely do!
Off this list, I have probably only watched The Good Place. I have been looking for some new shows to watch though, so this is perfect timing! think I may start with Scandal and that hunting an internet killer docuseries seem interesting too!
Scandal is SO GOOD! You’re going to love it!
I love that you linked all the trailers! I want to watch Cheer now. 🙂
I am waiting on the final season for Grace and Frankie; I love that show, and Schitt’s Creek is not far behind it!
I really enjoyed Cheer! So well done!
I watched the first ep of Cheer and loved it but never carried on as I kept forgetting! I need to catch up for sure x
Definitely do, it’s a great show!
Our planet and stranger are the two I am aiming to watch when the kids are asleep. The murder and mayhem one looks interesting too.
All are such good shows! I’m sure you’ll enjoy them.
This list is GOLD 🙌🏼
I’m starting Ozark next!
Ozark is so good! I’m still on the first season but I’m loving it!
Thanks for sharing. This will carry through the lock down
My pleasure!
Thank you for this list. I am watching FRIENDS everyday and just finished watching FrozenII. Now I can add these too. 😊
Friends is always a great choice!
Wow I love all of these suggestions. For me, the good place and Jane the virgin are my ultimate guilty pleasures. B x

It’s so good, isn’t it?
These are really great suggestions! I’ve watched a few like Good Girls which I loved and Grace and Frankie which is hilarious. My boyfriend and I really want to watch Tiger King, I’ve heard such good things about it!
Tiger King is absolutely crazy, you’ll get hooked instantly!
I’ve really fallen in love with nature documentaries. They make for a lovely background noise and also stunning break material when I feel like I need to look at something else than my laptop screen for a while. I’m sure I’m also subconsciously absorbing all the information from them while pretending to be concentrating on work ;D xx

Oh, that’s actually very smart!
This is a great list.
I would add Nailed it. It’s so weird,strange and just ridiculous that I can’t stop watching it.
The perfect “no need to think at all” tv show lol
I hadn’t heard of this before, I’ll have to give it a try!
This has reminded me I need to start watching Scandal. I love HTGAWM so feel I might like Scandal too!
https://meganelizabethlifestyle.com/
You will LOVE Scandal. Such a good show!!
I don’t really watch TV but I’ve heard good things about some of these… Our Planet would be my choice here, I reckon!
Our Planet has STUNNING visuals! It’s so well-done.
I’ve just bookmarked this post! I loved watching Bodyguard and Love Is Blind from your list, thanks for sharing 🙂 xx
My pleasure! 😊
So many good options in this list! I see everyone raving about Tiger King lately, that might be where we start
Your mind will be blown, haha. This show is so sad and so crazy at the same time.
Watched and loved so many of these! Good girls is by far my fav! Great list!!!!!!
Thanks girl! 💕
I’ve been meaning to watch ‘Cheer” and I think now is the perfect time to do so!! Thank you for the suggestions! Adding all to my watch list as I type!

Awesome, enjoy!
Such a great list, I am always looking for something new to watch I think I am going to watch Good Girls next. – Thanks 😉
You’ll love it! It’s one of my favorites for sure! 😊
So many great suggestions. Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure! 🙂
Love this list!! Seen a lot already 🙂 love the good place! We’re currently binging Brooklyn Nine Nine
Another good show! Enjoy!
Love, love Grace & Frankie and Schitt’s Creek. Perfect uplifting binge shows to replace the news.
Absolutely!
So many great shows on here!! The Good Place and Grace & Frankie are two of my favs! Although a bit on the older side, Dexter also had me sucked in from the very beginning. Breaking Bad was also very binge-worthy! The Crown is another of my favorites – it’s so addicting! Great post!
I love Dexter and Breaking Bad! Such classics. I should watch The Crown, I never got into it.
Really awesome list. I have been trying to find something to binge on. Definitely looking into your recommendations
Good to hear! 🙂
Good list. Schitt’s Creek is the best. Almost finished with Ozarks. Probably watched half of these so far.
Oh cool! I’m still on season one of Ozark and I’m really enjoying it!
Thanks for compiling this great list! I’ve watched a few of these and enjoyed them. I keep hearing about Tiger King but I’m reluctant to watch it. Maybe when I’ve run out of options?!
It’s an insane show for sure, haha!
Thank you so much for this post, I was running our of things to watch!
Happy to help!
Great suggestions! I’ve been hearing a lot about the Tiger show so I’ll try that tonight! Thanks so much for posting this! Take care and be safe!
Thank you Michelle, you too!
Thanks for the amazing list after reading all the comments am watching tiger king and jane the virgin! :))
I think you’ll enjoy them both!
This is great; and just what I need! I want to start Grace & Frankie so badly; I’ve seen so much hype about it recently. I haven’t seen Tiger King yet, but I think I’m going to give into that hype too, this weekend more than likely!
Both are really good shows, enjoy! 😊
Yes, thank goodness for this post, I’ve added loads of these to my list. I recently fell down a Dexter shaped hole and watched the entire first season in a week!
Rosie
Ahh Dexter is so good! Definitely a good show to rewatch!
There are SO many options on this list that I’ve never seen, I’d need a decade to catch up with them all haha! I did watch Tiger King though, what a mad story that is! And The Bodyguard was pretty good – although that may have had more to do with Richard Madden than anything else haha…
I still can’t get over Tiger King, haha. And YES, I completely agree about Richard Madden making the show even more watch-worthy! A little eye candy never hurts!
