I’m having another day stuck in bed. Nothing sexy - extremely sore and sick.

And I’m bored. Fed up of being sore, fed up of being stuck in bed.

So. I have Netflix (well, my dad does and I sponge from him). What does everyone recommend I watch?

I don’t usually watch new things, I get really anxious and just watch the same things over and over and over again. But I’m THAT bored.

I watched Insatiable (more of a teen serious but if anyone watched it - how good was it?!) and a few teen romcoms a few weeks ago, but I like darker stuff usually. I’ve possibly watched ever serial killer series/documentary there is too offer on Netflix. (Probably not, but I’ve warched a fair few).

Any recommendations?

Generation War is a good one currently on Netflix, it's about five naive young German friends in WW2 and follows their different paths from the early German victories to the crushing defeats towards the end of the war. Subtitled but well worth a watch

Nope, haven’t watched it! Honestly my anxiety is so bad that I HATE watching new things (yes, I’m aware it’s a couple of years old now).

I do need to give it a watch though!

Judd Apatow’s series Love Ian my favourite thing on Netflix. Gus can be a bit annoying, but I love Mickey. Gillian Jacobs who plays her is incredible.

And Master of None, Aziz Ansari from Parks and Rec’s own series is absolutely brilliant.

I tend to steer away from the heavy or darker stuff cos my attention span for TV is minimal.

If you want easier things to watch then the end of the fucking world and atypical are both great (they are the only 2 boxsets I've actually watched to the end!)

A series of unfortunate events is good too.

It starts about an English nurse just

after WW2 who goes on honeymoon to

Scotland with her new husband but some

thing happens during a visit to some

sort of stone hendge type monument and

she ends up being transported back in

time to the 1740's and the Jacobyte revolution against Brits in Highlands.
