What To Watch?

“Have you seen _____?”

If you are asking me this, and it is a recent or current TV show, the answer is more than likely “Yes!” There’s something comforting about a multi-episode show that speaks to me deeply. Whether it’s a binge or a weekly roll-out – consider me completely invested. Drama, rom-com, thriller, young adult… yes, please! While I have a list of favorite shows in any genre, SciFi and Horror always end up making their way to the top.

If you’re looking for something new to watch or are simply wanting to escape the heat this upcoming summer season, chill out with some of my favorite SciFi and Horror shows that have come out in the past few years.

Grab your snack of choice and get watching. And of course, let me know which you add to your favorites lists afterwards!
