Daredevil

NARCOS

If you enjoyed the dramatic storytelling and superb acting in Breaking Bad, then you may enjoy Narcos. Narcos follows the growth of cocaine drug cartels and the efforts made by law enforcement to stop the spread of these cartels around the world. The show focuses around infamous cocaine kingpin Pablo Escobar, played wonderfully by Wagner Moura.

iZombie

If you liked the quick-witted banter and mystery solving in Veronica Mars, you’ll love iZombie. Based off a DC comic book series, iZombie concerns the life of a recently “zombiefied” medical student, Olivia “Liv” Moore (played by Rose McIver), who copes with her appetite for brains by taking a job at a morgue. Liv realizes that with every brain she consumes, she gains some of their personality traits and memories, and with these newfound powers, she helps the police solve mysteries regarding the victims’ deaths.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

If you liked the zany, surreal humor of 30 Rock, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt will also crack you up. The show is centered on title character Kimmy Schmidt (played by Ellie Kemper) who adjusts to life in New York City after being rescued from a doomsday cult’s underground bunker in Indiana. The show is laced with co-creator Tina Fey’s comedic timing, and it shows when you watch Kimmy Schmidt hilariously adapt to the modern world.

Daredevil

If you enjoy the dark tone and action sequences of Arrow, you will really enjoy Daredevil. Matt Murdock/Daredevil (played by Charlie Cox) is a blind lawyer-by-day, who utilizes his heightened senses to fight crime at night in New York City’s Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood. While the movie adaptation starring Ben Affleck was horrible, Netflix’s version is an excellent, action-packed series that you won’t want to miss.

Cosmos

Fans of Bill Nye the Science Guy and its wide range of natural science topics will also enjoy Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey. Cosmos, hosted by astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson, takes viewers on an enchanting journey regarding time, space, the first steps of evolution and the consequences of climate change.
