1. Kaos
Jeff Goldblum as Zeus

Where were you when you were first introduced to Zeus as being a valiant god who seemingly could do no wrong and how did you react when you realized he's kind of a jerk? Kaos does such a great job of showing his grandiose personality by way of Jeff Goldblum's amazing performance, but it's the other gods, goddesses and humans who add to the chaos.
In a dark, yet hilarious undertaking, Prometheus plans his revenge against Zeus for torturing him throughout the years and calls on a prophecy and 3 unsuspecting humans to help him take down the narcissistic ruler once and for all.

I Am Not Okay With This deserved more than one season, but we'll settle for the only one that introduced us to a teen's hidden powers.

High Fidelity deserves to be on your list because it follows Robyn Brooks' (Zoë Kravitz) journey as the owner of Championship Vinyl and her pursuits in the love department.

4. The Queen's Gambit
Anya Taylor-Joy as Beth Harmon
Phil Bray/Netflix
The Queen's Gambit was short-lived, but it's earned it's place on our "best TV shows to watch" list because it's hilarious and heartbreaking for many reasons. For one, Elizabeth Harmon's (Anya Taylor-Joy) world is turning upside down when she becomes orphaned at a young age. Secondly, her addiction to the pills given to the young girls at the orphanage isn't her fault because it's a daily occurrence that she didn't have a say so in. Above all this, Beth proves herself to be a witty young woman who's a highly skilled chess player.

If you're a musical theater lover like us, you'll love binge watching The Get Down! Set in the Bronx during the '70s, it revolves around teenagers and the tumultuous times they're growing up in. The one thing that seems to unite them is their love of music which leads them to from a group called "The Get Down Brothers." They have to face the strict rules of religion, ominous gangsters, and the reality of poverty's effects on their surroundings.

6. How to Die Alone
Natasha Rothwell as
Lindsay Sarazin/Hulu
We were sad when we learned Natasha Rothwell's show How to Die Alone was canceled after one season, but that hasn't stopped us from revisiting her character Melissa's determination to live a full life. Similar to Survival of the Thickest, this series touches on the reality of working to survive and making the choice to stop waiting for miracles to drop in your lap.
Albeit slightly jarring that it takes a dear-death experience for Melissa to make better decisions, we can relate that sometimes we need jarring wake-up calls that push us to stop taking the passive approach to living.
