The Netflix Tag

Hello!



The Netflix Tag has been floating around and if you know me, you know I love a bit of good ol' Telly!
So, seeing the Netflix Tag, how could I not. hey? How. Could. I. Not.?
Right, so lets dive in!

1. What are your favourite series' to watch on Netflix ?
Sherlock is an incredible series. It's full with intelligent details, and I can't believe I started the series as late as I did! If you haven't watched Sherlock, you're missing out! Run to your Netflix account and watch all 6 episodes currently on there! You can thank me later! ;)

2. What are you currently watching on Netflix ?
At the moment, I'm up to date with Pretty Little Liars. Actually, on Monday we had a little chat on here on all things PLL. Here's the link, incase you missed it! 

3. If you could have any series, old or new put on Netflix, what would it be ?
Suits. Although it is currently on there, I would love up-to-date episodes on Netflix, like they've recently done to PLL. I love Suits, definitely my favourite show (it's up there with Sherlock!). 

4. What is your one peeve about Netflix ?
Just the fact that Suits episodes are not up to date. Also, the third series of Sherlock is not on there either. I did catch the first two episodes of the third series on BBC iPlayer, but by the time I got around to the final one, it was no longer available! I was gutted. 

5. What are your essentials for a perfect night in with Netflix ?
A cosy blanket, my go-to furry pink roses blanket is my favourite. I was catching up with the latest PLL episode on Netflix today and the blanket was in the wash - definitely not the same experience. Good, nonetheless! 

6. Recommend one series or film for someone else.
I have yet to watch a film on Netflix, there aren't any that catch my eye but in terms of series, Sherlock! (These questions are all interlinking, aren't they?)

7. Name a series on Netflix you keep meaning to watch but haven't yet.
Hmm... none off the top of my head. I think I keep up with the ones I am a die-hard fan of, and happy with my selected few. (I say few, but there are quite a lot! *shh*)

8. Did you discover anything awesome because of Netflix ?
Homeland was a series I found only due to Netflix. Although, I have watched every single one on there, so there's none left to watch. To be honest, I'm just super happy Suits is back so Homeland is not missed!

Is there any show you cannot recommend enough on Netflix? Would love suggestions! 
& I Tag YOU to do it too!

Young & Hungry - ANOTHER New Series

Hello!

"7 episodes in a row is enough excuse to prove to you how feel-good the show is -"

 You may have read about another new series last week on this post - yet I've got another recommendation for you! YOUNG & HUNGRY.

Do you recognise the main character? Emily Osment, featured in Hannah Montana, Cyberbully and Spy Kids, is the star of the show! Her witty, funny and totally loveable character captures your heart and humour right from episode 1.

Watching 7 episodes in a row is enough excuse to prove to you how feel-good the show is - believe me!

So, if you're looking for a comedy, light-hearted show to fall in love with, this one is for you! Oh, and notice that each episode is called Young & ______ - for example, the 1st episode is Young & Ringless, another is Young & Secret, another is Young & Car-Less... you get the picture!

Have you seen an episode yet - and do you think you're 'Young & LOVING THE SHOW'?!?! see what I did there? haha!

New TV Series: The 100

Hello!

TGIF! Another Friday means another start to the weekend. Whether you're going out tonight or staying at home, at some point you may find the time to want to... I don't know, start watching a new TV series? Well if you do, here's why you may want to watch The 100:

"will there never be life on Earth for the humans"
I hadn't heard of 'The 100' by word of mouth, unlike Game of Thrones and The Vampire Diaries, but stumbled across it after searching on google for the perfect new show to watch. If you've been reading BBXO for a while, you'd know that Suits in an obsession - there's evidence of that here, oh and here. #sorryimnotsorry 
Reading those you'd know that I was looking for a new show for a while and nothing stood out as much as this one.

"those 100 are not the only ones on Earth - and the 100 are not wanted there.. "

The 100 is about people living in a spaceship thing (in space, obviously) as there was a nuclear explosion on Earth 97 years (3 generations of people) ago. They had finally decided to let 100 kids from prison down onto earth to see if it is safe for the rest of the population to return too. Unfortunately, some of these kids are rebellious and risk the fact that everyone on the spaceship, including their family and future generations, may die due to lack of rescources to live. 

However, they find that those 100 are not the only ones on Earth - and the 100 are not wanted there.. Will the 100 prove it's safe to be on earth, to save their waiting families on the ship, or will there never be life on Earth for the humans?

If you like the action behind the likes of Hunger Games and Divergent, you will like The 100!

Have you heard of 'The 100' and what do you think of the storyline?

Current Love: Pretty Little Liars

Hello!

Being a student and exam time coming very soon -so soon that I don't want to mention when exactly, because that would make them feel real and then stress me out- does that mean we can't watch TV anymore and should be revising? No, as I've watched like 6 episodes of one particular TV show in the few days and I loved every second of it! What TV show you ask? PLL of course! 



I am up to date with the 4th series, so if you're not there yet and don't want any spoilers, you may want to stop reading now... because I can't promise nothing slipping out!

Okay, if you have carried on: EZRA isn't A?!
I knew it! The moment they had shown Fitz in the 'A Room' I knew it was another 'Toby' incident and that he wasn't A, I mean come on!! Did you think he was A for any moment? Although, when they did show that he was A, I became very vary for Aria and was shouting at the screen when she lied to others in order to be with him!

So, Alison is alive and Spencer could have been the "murderer"? I think she might. That seems sort of realistic as she was on the drugs at the time, and the evidence does lead to her! How weird is that?!

If she was the killer, who the hell is A?! And why are they stalking the girls?
Do they want to reveal that Spencer is the killer? If they did, they could have done it all this time - I mean they do have some evidence and stuff!

Oh, and where has Cici Drake gone? What was her biggie in all of this!
Don't get me started on Mona - what is up with the girl dating Aria's little brother and what did she have to do with Ezra? All that Ezra went through was for a book? He was manipulating peoples lives for a book? That's deep!

So, to end that ramble about PLL - any suggestions on who 'A' is?!

"The Vampire Diaries" or "The Originals"?

Hello!

With New Year brings New Goals, New Ideas and…. New TV Shows? Okay, no, it doesn't - but that doesn't stop one from watching good TV!


So, as we speak I am watching The Originals on TV, this being my first time and I'm not loving it - maybe because I haven't really been watching The Vampire Diaries which is the prequel to this new show. You may know that The Vampire Diaries is on it's 5th season now yet I used to watch it and then got a little bored. I have began to watch it again and thought I'd try out The Originals yet I keep getting distracted and don't like the story very much.

I am still loving Revenge, though! The story line is nice yet I feel sorry for Daniel!
Anyway, if you're like me, you may get bored of a series, perhaps too quickly - yet there are certain shows that really draw you in! I need more of those certain shows!

What's the series you cannot stop watching and really recommend?
