5 Shows You Should Be Watching!

-
Hey Guys x

I'm just gonna start this off by saying that I don't have 'Netflix', so I have no idea whether these shows are on it or not (as that's how most people watch stuff).

However, I have a great love of TV, and I get so invested in TV shows it's insane!

So I thought that I'd share 5 of my favourite shows that I think deserve a lot of attention!

Gossip Girl

There's no way that I couldn't talk about Gossip Girl. I finished it at the end of last year and miss it so much! I'd love them to do an extra season just to see how everyone's been doing! But it's about a group of teenagers who live on the Upper East Side. They're ruthless, sordid and scandalous, but there's someone watching their every move. Someone who knows everything. XOXO Gossip Girl.

Family Guy

I have been watching Family Guy for so long, and it's honestly one of those shows that does get better and better as it goes on. I'm a firm believer that not every show has to be politically correct, and this certainly isn't! It jokes with everything and anything and the jokes are actually really funny! It's about a dysfunctional family and their talking dog living in Quahog, Rhode Island. Watch it!

Younger

I spoke about this show a lot last year, but as the air date for the next season has just been announced, now is the perfect time to bring it up again! Younger is about a woman called Liza Miller who is a 40 year old divorced single mother. However, to get a job in publishing (after she's been out of the game for 15 years) she pretends to be 26. I'd go so far as to say that this is the best show on right now. There are so many amazing elements to it, it has so many strong female characters, it has strong male characters, amazing actors, incredible scripts and storylines, everything just works. Catch up on the first 4 seasons before season 5 starts!

Psych

This is one of my favourite TV shows in the entire world. It's about a guy called Shawn Spencer who pretends to be psychic to get out of trouble with the police. However, due to his upbringing with a cop dad, he's hyper observant and is actually able to solve crimes that the police department have trouble with. Along with his best friend Gus, he joins the police department as their resident psychic. The show is hilarious and the movie of it should be coming out soon, if it hasn't already. Watch a few episodes and try not to fall in love with this show!

The Orville

This show was made my Seth MacFarlane, who is also the creator of family guy. I started watching it, not only for him, but also because it's based on (or lives in the same world as) Star Trek. It's about a man who is given the chance to captain his own ship - only to discover that his First Officer is his ex wife. However, that's only a small part of the show. What makes the show is the rest of the team and the different things that happen on their various missions, not to mention cameos from Rob Lowe, Liam Neeson and Charlize Theron! A definite must see for any sci-fi and comedy fan!

What shows would you add to this list?

Hot Frosty | Blogmas Day 17

  It's Blogmas day 17! When Cathy (Lacey Chabert) accidentally brings a snowman to life, she discovers the magic Jack the snowman (Dustin Milligan) brings to the town of Hope Springs. This is the third of four highly anticipated Netflix Christmas originals this year that I'm including in Blogmas. And while it's not the most original story, I've always loved the idea of Jack Frost, so I was excited to see it. Thankfully I liked this one - though maybe not as much as I wanted to. I really liked the character of Cathy. Not only was she really likeable, but because we get to know her so quickly, we can really root for her. I also loved the tone of the film. It didn't take itself seriously at all and made it clear to the audience that we're just there to have fun. All of the actors, main and supporting, were great. They were so much fun to watch and all played their characters really well. The chemistry between Cathy and Jack is great! You really want to see them tog...

Christmas Holidate | Blogmas Day 19

  It's Blogmas day 19! When Holly (Jasmine Burke) uses her company's app to find a date to bring home for the holidays, a glitch in the app causes more than one date to turn up. This film had an interesting premise because it seemed really original, and it looked like there would be a lot of chances for fun and humour. I didn't end up liking it as much as I wanted to. But one thing I liked was how much more modern it felt than most of the other movies I've watched for Blogmas this year. Even just the idea of her finding her date(s) through an app is original for a Christmas film. It's nice that the movie was family-focused, but the family it focuses on aren't that interesting and can't really carry the story. The main couple have chemistry and it was fun to watch them interact, but I never really cared about them one way or the other. And if for some reason they didn't end up together, it wouldn't have mattered to me. It took about 40 minutes for the...

Holiday for Hire | Blogmas Day 20

  It's Blogmas day 20! After getting dumped right before going home for the holidays, Katie (Christie Leverette) hires a man to pretend to be her boyfriend in front of her family. Finally a fake dating trope! A couple of the films this year have played with the theme, but this one really goes for it and I love that! But as much as I loved the premise, the film didn't really live up to it. However, one thing I loved as much as I loved the premise was Katie. Right from the beginning she was a character I could get behind and really root for. I also really loved Katie's roommate Sarah (Jeanne Lau) and I wish she had been given more to do, and more of a story. Why is she spending Christmas alone?? I tried not to look at the film from a point of realism, as this is a Christmas movie after all, but where was the sense of safety? The main couple are complete strangers at the start and it felt weird to see how quickly they trusted each other. And while I liked the characters intera...

A Christmas Proposal | Blogmas Day 16

-
Image
  It's Blogmas day 16! When Jason (Joshua T. Shipman) is forced to move for work, and his girlfriend cannot go with him because they are not married, he creates an elaborate plan to propose by Christmas. So apparently there are two films with the same name, made in the same year, and it looks like I picked the worst of the two! From the very beginning, the tone of the film is really odd. It was taking itself way too seriously for what is supposed to be a light Christmas movie. The plot didn't really make much sense. A few times throughout the film there was a point made that the character didn't want to be with his girlfriend, and had actually requested a be transferred to get away from her. So why are we watching him plan a proposal? Why is he planning a proposal in the first place? There were really weird moments throughout the film where the sound quality would drastically change when a character was speaking but not on camera, despite supposedly being in the same room. ...

Christmas on Ice | Blogmas Day 21

  It's Blogmas day 21! Former figure skater Courtney (Abigail Klein) teams up with former hockey player Noah (Ryan Cooper) to save the local ice skating rink from closing. I picked this one because it just seemed so quintessentially rom-com-y that I had no choice! And it also seemed like it would be really Christmassy, which is always important for a Christmas film. Unfortunately this one wasn't as romantic as it could have been. But I will say the Christmas part holds up - is there anything more Christmassy than ice skating?? My main gripe with the film is that I completely fell in love with a couple and was willing to spent all my time and energy on them. The only problem was, it wasn't the main couple! It was the side couple who were given no time! If the main couple of this film had been Beth (Caroline Portu) and Trevor (Matthew Grimaldi) this could have been a great Christmas movie. I really liked what little I saw of them and wanted so much more than the film gave us....
