5 Shows You Should Be Watching

Looking for something decent to watch on TV?  These 5 shows are just what you need.  Some are dramas, some are comedies, all 5 are my favorites!
this is us, netflix, hulu, a series of unfortunate events, man with a plan, matt leblanc, neil patrick harris, patrick warburton, unbreakable kimmy schmidt, kimmy schmidt season 3, Underground wgn, underground john legend

1. Underground (WGN and Hulu)
hulu underground, underground railroad show, best of hulu
I heard about this show about the Underground Railroad with John Legend as a producer. That's always been a part of history that fascinates me and  that I think we can all learn from to avoid repeating the horrid mistakes our country made then.
Then I learned the show is on WGN...a channel we don't get.  Hulu also has the show "Underground" but we also didn't have Hulu.  Until now.  I bought a Hulu subscription and watched the entire 10-episode, first season of this series in 48 hours.  


The rest of the shows in this list are in random order.  "Underground" is number one for a reason.

2. This Is Us (NBC)
nbc this is us, jack and rebecca, big five, sterling k brown, this is us finale, toby and kate

A hit show from NBC that just wrapped up it's first season, This Is Us is a family drama that follows the lives of 3 siblings via flashbacks.  The series is known to be a tear-jerker but there are also many laugh-out-loud moments mixed in.  Watch it and see if you love Randall and Beth as much as I do. 

3. A Series of Unfortunate Events (Netflix)
a series of unfortunate events show, series of unfortunate events neil patrick harris, patrick warburton, who narrates series unfortunate events, Lemony snicket, best of netflix, must watch netflix, shows based on kids books, children books tv shows

Based on the amazing books by Lemony Snicket, this series (I'm referring to both the books and the show) are for kids and adults alike.  Neil Patrick Harris stars as the evil Count Olaf. Patrick Warburton with his deep, serious voice, as the narrator is phenomenal.  


4. Man With A Plan (CBS)
man with a plan, joey from friends, matt leblanc show, cbs comedy, sitcoms, new sitcoms, CBS hits

"Friends" star Matt LeBlanc stars in this half-hour sitcom.  Let me hit you with honesty: we loved his character "Joey" but were not sure THIS new show would be any good. Spoiler alert: the show really is good.

5. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (Netflix)
netflix originals, tina fey, unbreakable kimmy schmidt, best of netflix, best of tv, titus andromedon, ellie kemper, carol Kane

Hilarious. Every single episode.  The story follows the fictional Kimmy character who was locked in a bunker for 15 years by a cult leader! She escapes and sets up a new life in New York.  This is the perfect half-hour show to make you laugh after a long day.
