Bingeworthy TV for the Summer Before Law School


Who doesn't love a good TV binge on Netflix? My husband and I seem to always be starting a new binge on Netflix or Amazon Prime... that's what fills our Friday and Saturday nights because we are clearly wild 23-year-olds... not.

Here is a list of a few of my favorites that would be a great way to relax and get in some good TV time before law school and reading cases consumes your life.


1. The Office
Honestly, the best binge of all time. I have watched it all the way through multiple times and I just love it. My dream job will always be Dunder Mifflin.

2. Parks and Recreation
This got me through second semester of 1L year- it's just such good fun and such lovable characters. Leslie Knope is queen.

3. How I Met Your Mother
Oh my.... what a rollercoaster this show is but I loved every minute. Legend-wait for it-ary.

4. Call the Midwife
This show is just so heartwarming. It shows history and the miracle of life in such a beautiful and realistic way through 1950's London.

5. Downton Abbey
Drama.... 1920's style. Fall in love with Downton, Matthew Crawley and the life of early 20th-century life in the upper crust of English society.

6. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
This show is just so stinkin adorable and hilarious. It is a great laugh and is pretty short so it's a good in between binge.

7. New Girl
Seriously this show makes my cry I laugh so hard. And I perpetually beg my friends to play True American with me....

8. Fuller House
I love love love me some good 90's Full House... whats even better than that? Bring them back modern! This is so well done, hilarious, good family fun full of nostalgia. (P.S. Team Steve!)

9. Gilmore Girls
Who doesn't love them some fast talking, coffee loving Gilmore Girls???? I have loved this show since I was young and it never disappoints with a laugh and a good storyline. Also, the new episodes int he revival are wonderful in my opinion.

10. Reckless
This may only have one season but boy is it a good one! A steamy drama about two lawyers in the south is such a good, quick binge. It may not be realistic about how the law actually works but it's fun regardless.

The best advice I have for the summer before law school is to just enjoy and have fun! You have plenty of time to work hard later.
