A bit of a random post today! I myself, love a good series. I'm always looking out for newly top rated ones on IMDb and I have a list of ones I want to watch! Finding the time however is another story! So I've put together a top 10 list and hopefully it might give one of you a new series to love!
10. Sherlock
Sherlock is just brilliant. The whole concept of how Sherlock reads people is just ingenious! The plots always keep me on the edge of my seat and you can never guess the next twist. Benedict Cumberbatch is an amazing actor too and I love how he portrays Sherlock! Great for those of you that like a thriller with lots of humour thrown in there too.
9. True Detective
This was one of my finds whilst browsing IMDb! Only one series has aired so far, but oh my god it was so good! It's an in depth thriller about a serial killer. It gets really dark at times as the characters are battling their own demons, but it really is a great watch and I got very attatched to the main characters! I'd recommend if you like a gritty thriller with a great plot. The opening credits are also the coolest I've ever seen..
8. I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here
Bit of a random one here! I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here is a reality TV show and I'm sure those of you from the UK will have heard of it! Basically I just love Ant and Dec, I think they are hilarious! And the whole programme is just really funny and it doesn't take itself too seriously.
7. The Originals
The Originals is a spin off from The Vampire Diaries (hint for what's coming up!) I didn't think I'd like this at first but I really do! It's set in New Orleans which is such a cool place and when I visited New Orleans this summer I was on the lookout for notable places (and possibly notable vamps..) It's a really good series and definitely worth a watch if you're into the supernatural like I am!
6. Made in Chelsea
Ahh there had to be one of those reality shows in there somewhere! Fortunately this is the only one I watch! I am obsessed though, I can never wait for my weekly dose of MIC! I like to see how the other half live and their dramas just entertain me! Great for a bit of lighthearted, real life drama.
5. Frozen Planet
If you haven't watched this, you need to! I don't just love Frozen Planet, I love all of the David Attenborough nature programmes! But I didn't want this list to just be all of them, so I picked my favourite! Frozen Planet was just the one that really stuck with me and I couldn't wait to watch every week. Besides from the fact that I love penguins and polar bears, the moments the crew captured are just breathtaking. I admire the film crew so much!
4. Friends
Ahh Friends! No top 10 would be complete without this! I actually didn't get into friends until this year! Before I kept catching random episodes and not really knowing what was going on and I was too young to watch it when it originally aired, but I managed to catch them from the start and now I'm hooked! I watch them every single day now, at least 3 usually! They're always on in the background when I'm cooking dinner or whatever! Great as a pick me up, they never fail to make me laugh when I'm sad.
3. Game of Thrones
Just to give you an insight into my obsession with Game of Thrones, when I was working at camp this summer in America, the final aired and me and my friends had no way of watching it so we ended up streaming it off someones phone! It kept stopping to buffer and we could hardly hear it, but we watched it!! This series is put together great, it has followed the books closely so far down to every gory detail. Although the series is pretty out there, I would recommend it to anyone as it has drawn a diverse audience!
2. The Vampire Diaries
Well if you've read my blog before, you knew this one was coming! I watched The Vampire Diaries from the first day it aired in the UK and haven't stopped since! I don't even know why I love it, I just do! I can't get enough of all the love triangles, supernatural twists and of course, Damon Salvatore!!
1. One Tree Hill
I think One Tree Hill will always have a place in my heart. It's the one I always come back to. I do prefer the earlier series' when Peyton and Lucas are still in it, but all the series' are great. It's really well written and and I love how inspiring all the characters are. If you're looking for a great series to watch that you can really get into, I'd definitely give One Tree Hill a go.
This post was meant to be a quick one but it actually ended up taking me hours! It was hard to decide on my top 10 and then I struggled to put what I love about each one into words!
What is your favourite series? Anything I should watch?
Oh my god I love Frozen Planet, and any documentaries like it! My favourite shows are Orange Is The New Black, Hemlock Grove, and American Horror Story. They're all like quite tense, but in a good way!
