You know how much we LOVE Netflix in our home!
There is such a great variety of shows to watch and I am so thankful to have them on in the background while I’m working on my blog (you can start your own blog with our 5-Day Free Course), or as a family during movie night. If you missed my first post of 10 Shows You Should Be Watching On Netflix be sure to check it out!
Here is the updated 10 (More) shows you should be watching on Netflix in 2021!
1. Virgin River- I am so thankful that there are now two seasons of this masterpiece so that we can sink deeper and deeper into the storyline. Teaser- heartbreak leads to new beginnings and a whole lot more!
1. October Faction- Supernatural family drama. The series features twins with powers and their supernatural fighting parents. Sounds simple, but it isn’t. Very entertaining!
1. Firefly Lane- Bestfriends from childhood sharing life’s twists and turns into their adulthood. There are equal parts heartbreak, hope, and love. It reminds me a lot of This is Us and Parenthood. A show that will leave a mark on your heart for a long time!
4. Bridgerton- A period piece featuring siblings living the high society life in London- looking for love, happiness, and good times! Maybe some scandals too?
5. The Umbrella Academy- This is a sci-fi series based on a comic book. Not something I ever thought I would find myself watching- yet here we are. It kept my attention and had some pretty cool filming elements. I’m not sure I took in all of it, as I was watching while working- but I would definitely keep watching future seasons.
6. Dead To Me- This is the story of a very unfortunate friendship. It is uncomfortable, funny, endearing in a strange way, and something you won’t be able to stop watching.
7. The Ripper- This will freak you out and intrigue you at the same time. All about the hunt to identify and hopefully capture the Yorkshire Ripper- the serial killer from the 1970s.
8. Peaky Blinders- I am always looking for shows that have multiple seasons (this one has 5 so far) so that I can get completely immersed in the characters. This timepiece set in 1919 Birmingham, England will do just that… as you feel like you are a part of the gang led by the infamous crime boss.
9. FATE: THE WINX SAGA- Teen/Young Adult series that is mindless fun watching for all ages. Follow an American girl who just found out she is a fairy and her new magical friends as they right the wrongs of the past?
10. Longmire- Set in Wyoming, this crime thriller follows the life of a sheriff who is rebuilding his life after the death of his wife.

I have to go to my Netflix account and watch Scandal.
Have been wanting to watch this for a few weeks already
We watched Scandal for a bit, and we loved it! You should definitely check it out!
I wish I had netflix to watch these shows! Though I’d probably become a real TV junkie if I had it 😛
Breaking Bad is my ultimate favorite show and OITNB is awesome too!
They are both great! But I swear BB is my all time fav! Nothing will ever beat it!
You forgot HOuse of Cards!
There are so many good shows on Netflix. Thanks for the list! I did miss some of these shows.
Love your choices! I’ll have to look into a few of them. If you haven’t watched Survivor I do suggest it.
Our family is a big Netflix user. They have so many great educational shows for my kids!
I love Netflix! This is a great list, and I’m gonna go back and check out your first one too, thank you! I’m currently watching Bones on Netflix, although I LOVE Scandal, too! I tried to watch Breaking Bad…when the dead body fell through the bathtub and the ceiling…along with all the blood and gore ad insides…I had had enough. LOL
There’s a lot on your list I haven’t seen, but I do agree about Damages! That first season is absolutely addicting! I couldn’t turn it off.
I have been watching Breaking Bad. I have 4 episodes left.
I have been looking for new shows to watch netflix. Thanks for the list.
Love your picks! Some of those are my favorite shows! Love Scandal and Royal Pains esp!
I love breaking bad, scandal, & SOA. The other shows you’ve listed I have never heard of those. Guess I need to get on that!
I love Haven and Breaking Bad. I haven’t seen the rest of the ones on this list. I am currently watching Falling Skies on Amazon Prime
These all look like good shows, I’ll def try them out. I LOVE Netflix!
I watched Scandal and gave Witches of East End a shot (the book is much better). I haven’t seen the others, though.
My daughter watches Netflix everyday. There are a few shows that she loves. I will share your list with her.
I don’t have Netflix so I haven’t seen any of these shows, but thanks for the recommendations
I am not really even familiar with the most of the names on this list! I’ve heard of Sons of Anarchy and have seen (and loved) Breaking Bad!
I just watched all of Haven that was an amazing show. Currently, I am watching the Killing. I also have watched Royal Pains, Lost Girl, Dexter, Witches of East End, etc…I am a Netflix addict as you probably can tell lol.
I’ve heard of Breaking Bad and have been wanting to see it. The storyline sounds like it would be a good show. My kids love Netflix
I’m always looking for new Netflix shows! What a great list of new shows to try! I want to check out Royal Pains!
We just finished Breaking Bad tonight – and I was telling my husband we needed to find a new series so this is perfect timing! Thanks!
My brothers love watching Arrow and have been trying to get me into it as well. Great list!
Aly, I didn’t think I’d like it but once I watched a couple episodes I was hooked!
I know my husband watches Netflix all the time and so does my kids. They actually watch it more than they do our Direct TV subscription which is making me think that I need to cancel my DTV.
We use Netflix as our way to watch movies these days. You have now gave me some more show ideas.
We just recently got rid of Netflix because they don’t have many newer movies that we want to see. I do sometimes wish we still had to to watch some TV series though, I’d like to see Scandal from the beginning.
I’m seriously considering to cut my cable and go full netflix, my bill went from 99 monthly to 160 in 1 year (cable + internet)
I love having netflix. We got rid of cable b/c their streaming selection got so good! Breaking Bad was a great show to watch (but yeah could be a little grisly), and Prison Break was awesome!
Yes yes and yes to Breaking Bad! It will forever be the best show from beginning to end! I will always compare all other shows to BB!
I have heard many good things about Witched of East End. I believe my daughter would love that show!
I LOVE my Netflix. I binge watched my way through Breaking Bad, House of Cards, and Orange in the New Black. I think next up might be Sons of Anarchy. I have heard good things.
I’ve completed Breaking Bad already, and just finished The Fall. I would recommend that one!
I haven’t seen most of these. I think I’m behind the times!
I haven’t see any of these! Will need to add all to my list
Hmm. I’ve seen none of these. We have been watching a miniseries we have in DVD lately but it’s almost done. I’ll have to check some of these out 🙂
I just found Hell on Wheels 🙂
Gosh- I am not watching any shows…at all. Maybe it’s time to start 🙂
I’ve been meaning to watch breaking bad for a while. We are looking for a new show to watch, will have to start this one tonight!
My favorite is Orange is the new black and Melissa and Joey!
I love Netflix! Scandal is one of my favorites, we are currently watching Chuck, its a great one! We also love White Collar.
Is it sad to say that I have never watched any of these? I’ve been looking for a show to binge watch on Netflix, and I think Breaking Bad is going to be the one!
I love Witches of East End and Scandal. I’ll have to check out Haven.
I’ve never seen any of those! I keep heating about breaking Bad. We have Netflix, maybe it’s time I check it out.
What a great list. I love Netflix because it is getting better than cable almost now. Thanks for sharing.
we love Haven and have been watching it since the beginning. My dh watched both sons of anarchy and breaking bad and I love cedar cove.
My family and I love watching Netflix so many choices for everyone to enjoy.
Thank you for this! We just got netflix (I know WHAT?) but we had an android box for the last 6 months so we didn’t want anything else. Now it’s messed up and we got roku with netflix and I am OBSESSED. I am looking for more to watch at night so this will help!
I love Netflix. Thanks for this great list!
That’s the second mention of Sons of Anarchy that I’ve heard this week. 🙂 We don’t have Netflix but my son and his wife do and they love it.
