Bored out of your mind but can’t find anything interesting on your OTT platforms? Save yourself from the frustration and the hours of finding something worth your time. Here’s a list of serials that will definitely keep you hitched and entertained during quarantine.
1. Gilmore Girls (Netflix) – This series beautifully traces the journey of Lorelai and her daughter Rory. Through all the ups and downs, the failed relationships, the financial troubles, the mother-daughter duo remains strong and inseparable. With no superfluous drama, Gilmore Girls is sweet and light to watch.
2. Jane the Virgin (Netflix) – What more can we ask for than a rom-com thriller? Jane The Virgin is the perfect three-in-one package. Being a telenovela, it is high on melodrama but that makes it all the more fun. Every episode is a cliffhanger, besides being totally entertaining. The plot is unique and not something we watch every day. There is never a dull moment and the series keeps you gripped till its very last episode.
3. Game of Thrones (Hotstar) – It is safe to say that there is no other serial like GOT. It is unparalleled in every sense of the word. With its strong ensemble cast, the multiple interesting plots, the cinematography, it is a fantasy drama that you won’t be able to stop watching once started. Now is the perfect time to pursue this eight season series. There’s bloodshed, incest, nudity and if you’re prepared for all things bold, go for this one!
4. Money Heist (Netflix) – The show that people cannot stop raving about! Its strength lies in its intricate and well-crafted plot and its powerful cast. The fourth season was dropped recently and viewers are already yearning for more. It’s time to tick this Spanish crime drama off your list.
5. The Vampire Diaries (Netflix) – If you’re craving some romance, fantasy and supernatural drama, then TVD is a must watch. The plot is beyond interesting, the chemistry between the onscreen couples electrifying and the entire cast a delight to the eyes. The predominant love triangle gives you all sorts of feels. Each season has a different evil that the protagonists have to fight off, yet the storyline is not disjointed, glued together as it is with the idea of family and love. This one is an all-time favourite!
6. Friends (Netflix) – If it hasn’t been your day, your week or your month, or even your year (or even if it has been), you HAVE to watch Friends! It is exactly what you need to escape from the monotony that is life these days. A timeless series that can be watched by audience of any age at any time of the day, it is indeed an instant mood lifter.
Binge-watch away, people!
