If you get excited whenever the Netflix montage comes on, you’re reading the right article. You cannot deny that over the years, Netflix has made up a huge part of our lifestyle both as a medium for entertainment, as well as a cultural symbol (Hello Netflix and chill).

Nowadays, however, with the ongoing pandemic and the implementation of the lockdown, and with more free time on our hands, our bond with the streaming app online-has tightened. And in a good way too.

But there seems to be a problem. It’s somewhat difficult finding that perfect series which you can enjoy. Sometimes, it could take hours (no joke), searching for the appropriate title and that sucks a lot.

So if you spend hours scrolling through the Netflix feed in search of something interesting to watch, look no further as we’ve taken the pains (and pleasure), to bring you a list of television series you’re sure to enjoy on the online streaming platform this weekend.

  • Sweet Magnolias

Before diving into the sweet world of Serenity (the plot of this web television series), here’s one thing you should keep in mind. You’ll be wanting more. 

The series which was just released in Nigeria a couple of days ago has only one season; comprising ten episodes. This means that while you may thoroughly enjoy the storyline, you’d have to put a pause on knowing how the story continues after the tenth episode of season one.

Is season 2 confirmed yet? There’s yet to be a confirmation. However, we’re hopeful the creator Sheryl J. Anderson and the crew of the series get to the public about this development soon.
