Global pandemic left you with a little time on your hands? Well, if you get some time between long overdue household projects and/or home schooling (we feel for you) why not relax with a good Netflix binge?

Here is a quick list of 20 binge-worthy shows currently on Netflix (we’ve got the Mexican version, so our options are a little different, but still awesome…) I’m not gonna lie, we’ve seen quite a few of these, and that’s why they are on this list, but we’ve added a few more that we hear are good and plan to check out!

Here we go, in no particular order:
