If you are an occasional couch potato like me and love binge-watching series and movies, get your popcorn tub, and bury yourself under a pile of blankets. Here is my personal list of 10 must-watch series from Netflix.
But first, a disclaimer is in order. This is my personal list, and it is a cacophony of all genres. And by no means it’s a ranked list. So, here it goes.
Midnight Asia
Season(s): 1 Episodes: 6
Come December and January, festivities never seem to end. Then come the last weeks of January – the lazy weeks. You want a small get-away, get your energy booster. But oh, reality check, the pandemic is still not over yet! What is then the way about? Uh, Duh! Watch travel shows!

Midnight Asia is different. It makes up for the nights we wished we could have traveled to discover amazing Asia. The series was released in 2022 on Netflix with one season that comprises six episodes. The show starts with a bang, and each episode transports you through different countries in Asia. It shows the nightlife, the food (yum!), the people, and a lot more.
It’s definitely a good watch which makes you want to pack a suitcase and go.
Archive 81
Season(s): 1 Episodes: 8
Yup, this had to make its way in my list. Honestly, it is a good watch, but the ending can be a tad bit confusing. Tons of questions will pop up in your head. Answers to those questions probably will be revealed if there is another season in the schedule coming up soon. Hailing from the most-watched horror series, give this series a go!

The show does a splendid job it does of bringing together elements and actors of Karate Kid, adding some more action, angst, and drama. All in all, the show weaves a perfect tapestry.
Locke & Key
Season(s): 2
Mystery, Evil, and Family- What happens when these three elements come together? Locke & Key, of course! Well, this series might have garnered mixed reviews. Personally, I too have some inhibitions about the series in some parts. But keeping those moments aside, it is overall a must-watch show.

Did you watch the Witcher? Are you searching for some more of the ancient world, action, and drama? Well, you should check out Cursed.

Moreover, the good news is that rumors are going around the town, saying that Cursed season 2 will soon release this year. We can expect it to arrive on Netflix by the first half of this year. Trust me, if these rumors are true, this is the perfect time to binge on this series.
