Romance | 6 Seasons
Sex and the City is a classic. The four main New York-based characters Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda get themselves into a myriad of dramatic and comedic situations that often end up a little romantic. And youâre bound to relate to them in one way or another. There are a total of six seasons and two movies for you to take on.

Comedy | 4 Seasons
I was born and raised in Toronto and live in Hong Kong now, but I do get homesick from time to time. Thatâs why when I discovered Kimâs Convenience, I was immediately hooked. Kim's Convenience tells the funny and heartfelt story of the Kim family. Mr and Mrs Kim are Korean Canadian convenience store owners who have worked hard to give their children, Janet and Jung, a better life in Toronto, Canada. Of course, you donât have to be Canadian to enjoy the show, the storyline is super charming and unique.

Comedy-drama | Movie
Iâll admit, I havenât seen Once Upon A Time in Hollywood yet, but it's on my list. Iâve heard nothing but good things about the movie. Plus, over the past award season, it won numerous awards. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is a 2019 comedy-drama film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. It features a star-studded cast led by Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, and Margot Robbie. Set in 1969 Los Angeles, the film follows an actor and his stunt double, as they navigate the changing film industry, and features multiple storylines in a modern fairy tale tribute to the final moments of Hollywood's golden age. There's also news that the film may be repackaged as a Netflix miniseries.

Comedy-drama | 3 seasons
Season 4 of Insecure is about to premiere and I am beyond excited. Insecure is one of those shows where, from the start, you immediately relate to what the characters are going through. The show follows Issa and her friends as they navigate their career and relationship experiences while living in Los Angeles, California.Â

Master of None is one of those shows that the majority of millennials and Generation X-ers can relate to. The series was created by Aziz Ansari and Alan Yang, and stars Ansari in the lead role of Dev Shah. His character is a 30-year-old actor, and the series mostly follows his romantic, professional, and personal experiences. The show has won three Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe so far.

Reality | 1 Season
Netflix recently sent the whole world down a rabbit hole of reality TV chaos when they released the first few episodes of Love Is Blind, and it quickly became the show that everyone was talking about. The concept behind the show is simple (and a little cringe-worthy). It follows 30 single men and women who are hoping to marry. For 10 days, the singles hunt for their forever loves without ever seeing each other, and only speaking to one another in pods separated by a thin wall. At the end of the experience, they are given the chance to propose to the love of their life so they can live happily ever after(?).
