The Best TV Shows For People Who Think They’ve Watched Everything Already

Netflix? Completed it, mate. Well, we beg to differ...

Best shows you might have missed.

Quite unbelievably we are now in our THIRD national lockdown, which means so so many things. But it also means we are fast running out of decent TV shows to watch.

In reaction to this, you may have found the desperate WhatsApps have increased - 'WHAT SHOULD I WATCH NEXT?' they cry. And everyone seems to pile in with the same six TV shows you've all definitely watched. And then you end up watching the news, or, yknow, a blank wall. And that's just no good for the vibes is it?

Ok, so, you've done the oldies (do not even come to me recommending I watch The Soprano's, we've been in this for nearly 10 months now, that's so far done), and you've done the newbies - Bridgerton, A Teacher, The Serpent, BINGED. DONE.

We're going to have to dig deep to find some gems - but gems there still are to be found.

Luckily, the Grazia office is full of total TV addicts, so here is our list of TV shows you might've missed and now have the, well, the time to watch.

Two Doors Down (BBC iPlayer)

Honestly, I never would've watched this had it not been recommended by friends whose cultural opinion I always trust. So, let us be that friend to you. This Scottish half hour comedy will have you laughing like mad. And is a perfect half hour treat between the news (/horror show) and bedtime.

Call My Agent (Netflix)

Please, please, try this show, you will love it, promise. Just try one. It's a French comedy (WAIT!) about a group of agents to film stars - each episode features a movie star (think Extras) and it'll have you laughing, crying and longing for a trip to Paris.

60 Days In

'It's a jail documentary where they send volunteers into prison to report on contraband, gangs and jail operations. It is literally so dramatic and very American but so bingeable... I watched a whole season in like two days,' says Georgia. 'Season 2 is on Netflix right now and then seasons 5 and 6 on Prime but it's reality so you don't have to watch it in order.'

A forgotten gem it's worth going back to.

Reign (Netflix)

'If you're a sucker for a romantic costume series try Reign!' says Annie Vischer. 'It's based (VERY loosely) on the story of Mary Queen of Scots and begins during her time at the French court (we're talking mid 1500s so think Tudor style dresses). There are four seasons to get through and each one is bursting with romantic forest scapes, castles and jewel tones – perfect winter viewing. A little cheesy at times but no more so than Bridgerton.'

Veronica Mars (Amazon / Starzplay)

Before we knew Kristen Bell from our endless repeats of Frozen (just our house?), she was Veronica Mars, teenage private eye. We feel like we missed this teen-show by being a bit older the first time round and now we've regressed, it might be perfect.
