It is so often we find ourselves saying “there is absolutely nothing to watch”, well you’re in luck because we've got your back. You are really missing out on laughs, cries, and great content if you still haven't watched any of these 8 series. Have fun exploring!


1) Friends- ‘Friends’ is one of our all-time favourite shows. With the perfect amount of laughs and cries we assure you that with this series, you will never get bored. ‘Friends’, is an American television sitcom about 6 best friends, Chandler, Joey, Monica, Phoebe, Rachel, and Ross, and their lives together. With an outstanding storyline that never gets monotonous, an incredibly talented cast, and amazing guest appearances, ‘Friends’ is an absolute treat. So many jokes, so much comedy, so many surprises and squeals of live-studio audience excitement, these ten seasons and 236 episodes are hilariously relatable and a joy to watch, and we promise you, you won't regret it.


2) Suits- Looking for a great legal drama television series? ‘Suits’ is for you. The show is set in one of New York’s top law firms and the storyline as well as the cast take a complete flip between seasons 1 and 9. There is immense variety in the personas of all the characters portrayed and the series touches upon the solving of cases as well as politics inside the firm itself. ‘Suits’ is extremely gripping and it is the perfect “just one more episode” kind of series. It’s smart, intellectual, sophisticated yet so entertaining at the same time.


3) Brooklyn 99- ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ is a police tv series with an ensemble comedy about a talented but-carefree detective, a by-the-book police captain, and their colleagues at the 99th precinct in the NYPD. While based in the workplace, the series is not really about the job – it's about the men and women behind the badge. It manages to be funny while simultaneously touching on sensitive social issues in a genuinely tasteful way too. You'll laugh, you'll cry, but mostly you'll laugh - and on certain episodes, you'll feel your heart grow three sizes that day. It has earned multiple awards including Golden Globes, and it well deserves them. If you're looking for a light comedy and something to binge this is the show for you.


4) Grey’s Anatomy- Nothing replaces the feeling of watching a show age in real-time and ‘Grey's Anatomy’ has held this up remarkably. ‘Grey’s Anatomy' is a medical-based drama that revolves around the life of Dr. Meredith Grey, the surgical interns, and their supervisors who embark on a medical journey where they become part of heart-wrenching stories and make life-changing decisions to become the finest doctors. This series never flags in binding together the personal and professional aspects. 17 seasons of the same series can often get monotonous and make you lose interest, luckily ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ isn't anywhere near that category. It is so engaging and every episode comes with a new thrill and often tears too.


5) Alexa and Katie- ‘Alexa and Katie’ is by far one of the best series we’ve seen about friendship, especially from a younger audience’s perspective. The story is based on teenage best friends trying to survive high school, but unlike every other teenager, Alexa is battling cancer. The story depicts her beautiful journey which would be incomplete without her best friend Katie’s love and support. Whether they're at school, home, or the hospital, the girls are always by each other's side through thick and thin. These four seasons will walk you through their growth and absolutely heartwarming relationship with each other.


6) S.W.A.T - ‘S.W.A.T.’ is a crime action drama television series, based on the 1975 television series of the same name. The plot revolves around Sergeant Daniel Harrelson and his team of officers in the Los Angeles police department fighting criminals and striving to protect the public from danger. The series shines light upon diversity and real-time problems through the cases portrayed and a sneak peeks into the officers’ personal lives, ‘S.W.A.T’ is filled with action-packed excitement.


7) Homeland- ‘Homeland’ is an American spy thriller television series which is based on the Israeli series ‘Prisoners of War’. The show gives an edge-of-your-seat sensation to its viewers. This perfect serial/spy fiction tells the story of CIA officer Carrie Mathison. The show has also received a Golden Globe and three Primetime Emmy Awards. If you are looking for 8 seasons worth of great content and storyline of a Psychological and Political thriller ‘Homeland’ is a must-watch.


8) The Mentalist- ‘The Mentalist’ is a drama television series broadcasting 151 episodes over seven seasons. The series is based around the character Patrick Jane who serves as an independent consultant for the California Bureau of Investigation (CBI), using unusual psychological methods to solve crimes. He uses his relationship with the Bureau to try and track down the serial killer who murdered his family alongside solving a variety of other cases too. ‘The Mentalist’ is hands down a great show and a definite must-watch.


Trust me you won’t regret watching any of these series.
