Life can get hectic and with three kids, it can be hard to get out of the house for some “me time”. I have discovered that I don’t have to leave the house and can create some time for myself right at home. With Netflix, it’s handled. Below are my 5 favorite shows that I like to watch on Netflix when I’m looking for some time to myself.
1. Scandal
Scandal is the first show that I binge-watched on Netflix. I was pregnant with my twins and was on a modified bed rest, so I would lay in bed and watch Scandal. I was instantly hooked and was able to catch up on the first two seasons and then watch the third season live. If you’re looking to watch Scandal season 4 this fall, you can binge-watch the first three seasons of Scandal on Netflix now. It’s handled.
2. Parenthood
Parenthood is my FAVORITE SHOW EVER!!!! If you’re not watching this show, you must. Unfortunately, this fall will be the last season {unless a miracle happens} but luckily you can catch up on the past 4 seasons on Netflix. This is a show I love to re-watch on Netflix….everyone wants to be a Braverman, right?
3. Gossip Girl
Gossip Girl is the show that I binge-watched after Scandal. This show is probably one of my BIGGEST guilty pleasures- and now you know. There’s 6 seasons to watch and you’ll love getting invested in these drama filled lives.
4. Drop Dead Diva
This is a show that I started watch on Lifetime a few years ago. It took me a few episodes to get into it and it’s definitely a fun and enjoyable show. The season 6 series finals just premiered but you can watch the previous 5 seasons on Netflix and I’m betting season 6 will be available later this year.

5. Orange is the New Black
Okay, shockingly I have NEVER seen Orange is the New Black but all my Mom friends are telling me that I need to watch the show ASAP. It’s definitely next on my list to watch!

What show do YOU like to watch on Netflix?
Disclosure: I am part of the Netflix Stream team and compensation has been received. However, we have loved Netflix for years. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I’m currently exposing myself to Orange is the New Black. It’s….different, for sure!
I wish I had good enough internet service to watch Netflix. I would watch so manyt things.
MADMEN!!! Ohhhh Don Draper… how I love you….
Scandal is my fav! I’ve never seen “Parenthood”. I’ll have to check that out tonight!
Lately I have watched:
A Gifted Man
Heartland
The Glades
I do like Drop Dead Diva though!
There are so many great shows to watch on Netflix for a Mom to watch. I have heard many good things about OITNB, but it has many shocking details to it for sure.
I’m a 24 junkie. I also love Burn Notice!
Orange is the New Black is such a gripping show. Not many people give the views of just a female prison and its a really interesting take on it.
Totally obsessed with OITNB. Binge watched it in 2 days. Bad things is now I have to wait for the next season. LOL
I’m going to make some time tonight… shut the door and watch some flix 🙂
I’ve started watching Orange is the New Black and it’s awesome!
At first #OITNB was too much for me. I’m much too prudish LOL. But I gave it another shot and LOVE LOVE LOVE it.
You have GREAT taste in shows- I have been watching Drop Dead Diva on TV since day 1, started watching Scandal and Parenthood on TV after watching them on Netflix, binge watched season 2 of Orange when it came out & just last night finished watching the entire Gossip Girl series {which took me a couple of months, of course}. Great choices- LOVE Netflix!
i watched most of these over the long weekend. thanks for the list. i loved a majority of the series.
Chris and I really like Orange is the New Black. I will have to check out these others, thank you for posting!
