The weather hasn’t exactly been amazing so it’s good to have a Netflix standby list for when those outdoor activities are just not going to happen.
Here are some of the summer’s Netflix highlights:
For the Adults
Stranger Things: This is the one everyone is talking about, and I’m engrossed. It’s set in the 1980’s and is, well, a sci-fi horror. Think X-Files meets ET meets Goonies meets I don’t know what else. It’s just brilliant, watch it.
Stranger Things
Gilmore Girls: Perfect hangover TV, watch all the old episodes now in preparation for the NEW EPISODES coming in November as “Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life” which is four 90-minute chapters, each spanning one of the four seasons: Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. What happened next? We’re about to find out!
For the Kids
- Peppa Pig – what more could a three year old girl want?
- PAW Patrol – there’s an extra season now!
- Word Party – a new series for preschoolers
- Lego Ninjago- my boys can’t get enough of these, but are hoping for more seasons
- Voltron- nostalgia, I’ve found myself getting enthralled in these too
- H20 Mermaid Adventures: The three of them will all agree to watch this, the small girl likes the mermaids, the boys like the adventures and the environmental messages.
For the Family
- SHREK-TASTIC! Shrek 2, Shrek the Third, Shrek Forever After – ALL available NOW.
- Charlotte’s Web
- Chicken Run
- The Addams Family
What are you watching? And what will I watch next?
