Long holiday weekends are the perfect time to sink into a new show on Netflix. Here are 25 series you could knock out in four days.
Friday traditionally marks the start of any and all holiday weekends. Although you may have to spend some time with family or friends this weekend, you may also have some time to yourself. Alternatively, you might flat out make some time, because sometimes handling family can be tough…especially this year, we suspect.
It seems rather likely that all of us will turn to Netflix at one point or another this weekend, whether it be to fill the hours between events, provide a topic of conversation other than awkward discussions about the weather outside and what you’ve done in the past year. However, it can be tough to pick one series to binge watch over an entire weekend.
One might even go so far as to say that time is of the essence. You don’t want to start a massive series like Supernatural or The X-Files only to know that you probably won’t get to more episodes until New Year’s weekend at the very earliest.
Enter this list. We’ve combed through Netflix to pick out 25 series that could conceivably been watched in a weekend, presented in no particular order. Some are long, and some are rather short, but all of them are well worth watching.
Shall we begin?
