If your into the coming of age genre with a bit of genre and cute moments, I recommend Never Have I Ever. It's an amazing show. The trailer is very different than the movie, though, in a good way. The only downside of the show is the narration is very unnecessary.

If you like reality competition shows, you may want to check out Next in Fashion or Sugar Rush. The former is Netflix's answer to Project Runway but minus a lot of unnecessary and boring drama. The latter features bakers who specialize in fancy desserts.

I would say Locke & Key it is based on the comic book, this drama follows three siblings who return to their family home, only to realize that they have magical powers.

If you like action movies I recommend you to watch "The blindspot".
It is about a women with tattoo on all her body and she was cleared all her memories at the point that she doesn't even know what she real is by A group of people which was against government and they put her inside a closed bag and throw her at bus station and on the bag it was written that it who ever found that baggage send it to FBI.
It really a good one!

I recommend Sex Education. It is a very light-hearted, funny show about things that we all struggle with as teenagers. It's very progressive and opens doors to lots of conversations.

Fleabag if you’re into comedy especially dry humor

Dark for some seriously mind-bending storyline

I reccomend "Lucifer" for a more drama/action tv show, for a comedy series would say "Grace & Frankie".

All american is a good Netflix series. It's about a high school senior whose father left him, his brother turned out he wanted to be a footballer, was pretty good at it too. All depends on your likes tho

Heard of it and seen a few clips on YouTube I'd probably give a try!

If you like rom coms which have a looott of drama then you should watch Gossip Girls. If you like thrillers then you should watch Money Heist. If you like sad movies then 13 Reasons Why. If you like comedy then you should watch New Girl, Friends, Schitts Creek and That 70s Show.

If you are interested in mystery and fiction you should definitely watch Stranger Things. If you are interested in mystery or heists then you must watch money heist. And if you are into young adult then Riverdale is a good show.

Hey, I will highly recommend Kingdom on Netflix. It's a series. It deals with MMA fighting and family life. It was beautifully expressed. If I could give it a 10 out of 5 stars I would!!

It was just amazing. It was by no means just about fighting as so many issues are explored in it: family life, love, betrayal, drug abuse, homosexuality and the list goes on.

I urge you to give it a shot. You will not regret it. I was never even a Jonas Brother fan and now I can appreciate Nick Jonas. He is in it and my goodness he executed his role perfectly. There are 3 seasons and I find myself praying (almost literally) for there to be a Season 4!!
