Lindsay Lohan has made a comeback and we couldn’t be happier about it! As well as checking out her latest Netflix endeavors, now is the time to revisit some Lindsay Lohan classics. Grab a blanket and a big bowl of popcorn and settle in for a cozy night with your favorite flame-haired leading lady.

The Parent Trap

This iconic nineties movie is part of any self-respecting millennial’s catalog of childhood faves. The Parent Trap stars Lindsay as reunited twins Annie and Hallie who plot to bring their estranged parents back together. This is the film that confirmed the talented child actor’s place in our hearts and it’s well worth a nostalgic rewatch!

Freaky Friday

Lindsay Lohan dressed as a punk? Check! Jamie Lee Curtis rocking out on the electric guitar? Check! This hilarious body-swap movie has it all. If you were someone who had “Take Me Away” on your iPod growing up, now is the time to revisit this noughties smash-hit. And rumor has it there’s a sequel in the works…!

Mean Girls

The teen movie that set the bar for all teen movies that followed, we couldn’t not include Mean Girls on our list. From the most quotable script ever to stunning supporting acts by Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, this unforgettable favorite will transport you straight back to the school cafeteria!

When we were children, our parents used to tell us that watching too much TV or playing too many video games would fry our brain. We then sardonically rolled our eyes, because the prospect of such a thing sounded ridiculous. All these years later, we understand that our parents were touching on something much more subtle. True, frying our brains the TV did not—at least not in the literal sense. But watching too much TV can definitely negatively affect one’s psyche, and one must limit the amount they watch per week.

Addictive Shows

If you watch too much TV, you’ll certainly feel the negative effects on your mental energy. Think about how you feel after you binge-watch multiple seasons of a series within a short span of time. You usually feel depleted, or a bit detached. This isn’t necessarily your fault, rather the fault of binge culture and the tendency for shows to have an addictive quality to it, placing strong emphasis on shock-value.

How Much Is Too Much?

Knowing that we have the ability to get addicted to certain shows, we need to monitor our intake of said shows. Watching more than two hours per day is a tad excessive, in our opinion. We’d honestly recommend keeping it to one hour per day, or even a half hour, but we recognize that’s hard for some. Weekends can be a bit more flexible—but for the most part, try to avoid watching past one or two hours in a day.

Winter is a time for curling up with a cup of tea and seeing what’s new on the nation’s favorite streaming platform! If you fancy a change from bingeing Friends for the tenth time, check out these thought-provoking documentaries.

Hold Your Breath: The Ice Dive

Follow the life of free diver and ice diver, Johanna Nordblad, in this Finnish documentary as she attempts to break the world record for the distance swam under the ice with only one breath. Touching on climate change, sister relationships, fortitude and recovery, this short documentary is about so much more than swimming.

Misha And The Wolves

This captivating documentary is about a woman’s tale of surviving the Holocaust, aided by a pack of wolves. The story takes the world by storm but is it all that is seems? With plenty of twists and turns, this documentary explores the meaning of truth, memory, fame and deception.

Stutz

Made by Jonah Hill, this documentary celebrates his friend and therapist Phil Stutz. It features frank discussions of mental health, different approaches to therapy, and patient-doctor relationships.

After much anticipation, Emily in Paris is back for its third season. With the new season picking up exactly where Season two ended, there are bound to be a lot more love triangles, drama, and of course, fashion. Whether you are up to date on the drama or not, these were the best outfits of Season 3.

Colorful Blazer 

Throughout the season, Emily has stepped up her fashion game and has taken her colorful ensembles to the next level. Emily does this seamlessly in a loud multi-colored blazer. The color adds to her playful and fun side of Emily, and we are here for it. 

Cher Horowitz Moment 

Emily wore a houndstooth blazer, and the look is giving Cher Horowitz. What’s not to love about this whole look? This outfit is the perfect combination of business chic and nostalgia because who doesn’t love a Clueless moment? 

A Little Skin 

When it comes to showing a little skin, Emily knows how to pull it off with tasteful wear. In Season 3, she executes it perfectly in a gingham bralette and an embellished blazer. Yet another reason why we love Emily’s style and how she is a fashion icon.

With the third season of Netflix’s black comedy Dead to Me now streaming on Netflix, we thought it was time to reflect on the heart of this quirky Emmy-nominated show. At its core, Dead to Me is a celebration of female friendship (the murders are secondary!).

Let’s look at how Judy and Jen—flawlessly portrayed by real-life besties Linda Cardellini and Christina Applegate—show up for each other again and again.

* Spoilers Ahead! *

Opposites Attract

With acerbic, no-nonsense Jen and sweet, head-in-the-clouds Judy, Dead To Me shows us that some of the best friendships are between women who, on the surface, have nothing in common. Judy and Jen balance out each other’s limitations and help each other to grow.

In Sickness and In Health

With the show dealing with grief, miscarriage, guilt and terminal illness, Judy and Jen support each other through the toughest of times with humor, grace and a whole lot of love.

Friendship First

While Judy and Jen both have various romantic entanglements during the three seasons, it is their friendship that always comes first. This is a rare tribute to the power of platonic love that we don’t often see on screen and it’s beautiful!

When the leaves start turning and the mornings become frosty, it’s time to head to Netflix and watch (or rewatch) Gilmore Girls. This picture-perfect series is made for binge-watching under a blanket with a hot cup of coffee and, if you want to be a true Gilmore Girl, copious amounts of junk food. We’re here to tell you why fall is the perfect time to revisit Stars Hollow.

Cosy Fall Vibes

The drama of Gilmore Girls revolves around the school year and there is a big focus on fall, when Rory returns to school or college. The charming small-town Connecticut setting, almost constantly filled with vibrant leaves, pumpkins and harvest festivals, won’t fail get you in the fall mood.

The Feel-Good Factor

In these challenging times, sometimes all we want to watch is something comforting and familiar. With no high octane drama (just very fast talking), Gilmore Girls is the ideal antidote to stress and worry.

Fall Fashion

While fashion may have changed a lot in the 20 years since Gilmore Girls first aired, there’s still plenty to inspiration to be drawn from the series’ fabulous fall looks. With knit jumpers, hats and scarves galore, you’ll soon be digging through your sweater drawer in search of the perfect Lorelai-inspired look.

There’s nothing quite as fun as getting hooked on a riveting new television show and then proceeding to binge the entire series. A true marker of our generation, streaming services have designed their systems to promote endless watching of their programs—some of which truly are addicting. Moderation of something is fine, but how do you know if you’re binging too much TV?

The Notification

There’s the classic joke that people make where they know they’ve been watching Netflix a long time when it offers the notification on the screen, “Are you still watching?” But as funny as it is, it can actually serve as a practical jolt to your senses—that yes, you should probably go outside for a little bit.

It Becomes About Finishing a Show

We all know the feeling. We’ve committed to a series, and we’re enjoying it. But for some reason, we have this mindset where we just want to finish it already. While technically yes, we’re loving the ride, we become like a robot where we need to know what’s going to happen at the end, and thus watch multiple seasons in a tiny span of time.

If your show has become more about just finding out what happens, then you might want to take a step back. Take your time, and watch the series at a more leisurely pace.

The cold weather makes us want to stay inside and bundle up. If you need some entertainment to go with your cozying up, the best place to go is Netflix, especially this season. With tons of new shows and movies to binge, you’ll be set for the rest of fall and winter.

Dead to Me Season 3

Grab your wine and popcorn to watch the final season of this thrilling show. Season three is full of friendship, killings, suspense and *spoiler alter* a very sad ending to the entire series.

Falling for Christmas

Lindsay Lohan is back on our screens and taking a starring role in this year’s Christmas movie. After falling whilst skiing and losing her memory, she is taken in by a widower and his daughter for the holiday season. It promises some laughs and romance and some beautiful scenery.

One of Us is Lying Season 2

A murder mystery at a school promises a lot of drama, secrets and tension. The show continues with the main characters from the first season following a suspensful text. You’ll be the edge of your seat throughout this entire season.

1899

If you enjoy a more historical drama, then check out 1899, a film about an immigrant ship headed to New York, but has to abruptly change its course when mysterious events occur.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit our world, a lot of different ripple effects took hold over society. One of those ripple effects was that citizens were required to stay at home, and socially distance themselves from everyone else. Movie theaters shut down, and as a result, because just continued binging their favorite series on various streaming platforms such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, or others. But now that the pandemic has taken a bit of a breather, have people decided movie theaters are out of style?

A New Age

Even though theaters opened back up, there’s no secret that people weren’t exactly rushing to go back. After all, there are seemingly unlimited movies available to watch on our home screens, and with the advent of surround sound and advanced TVs that have come out—sometimes our home screen is more than enough.

The Magic of the Theater

However, while yes, movie theaters may have lost a step—they aren’t gone for good. We do believe that there will always be a certain magic about going to a movie theater. This is something that the older generations understand. And while it may take the younger generation some time to realize it as well, movie theater companies have been working tirelessly to reinvent themselves and show that they’re still very much in the game.

There’s nothing quite as fun as getting hooked on a riveting new television show and then proceeding to binge the entire series. A true marker of our generation, streaming services have designed their systems to promote endless watching of their programs—some of which truly are addicting. Moderation of something is fine, but how do you know if you’re binging too much TV?

The Notification

There’s the classic joke that people make where they know they’ve been watching Netflix a long time when it offers the notification on the screen, “Are you still watching?” But as funny as it is, it can actually serve as a practical jolt to your senses—that yes, you should probably go outside for a little bit.

It Becomes About Finishing a Show

We all know the feeling. We’ve committed to a series, and we’re enjoying it. But for some reason, we have this mindset where we just want to finish it already. While technically yes, we’re loving the ride, we become like a robot where we need to know what’s going to happen at the end, and thus watch multiple seasons in a tiny span of time.

If your show has become more about just finding out what happens, then you might want to take a step back. Take your time, and watch the series at a more leisurely pace.

The cold weather makes us want to stay inside and bundle up. If you need some entertainment to go with your cozying up, the best place to go is Netflix, especially this season. With tons of new shows and movies to binge, you’ll be set for the rest of fall and winter.

Dead to Me Season 3

Grab your wine and popcorn to watch the final season of this thrilling show. Season three is full of friendship, killings, suspense and *spoiler alter* a very sad ending to the entire series.

Falling for Christmas

Lindsay Lohan is back on our screens and taking a starring role in this year’s Christmas movie. After falling whilst skiing and losing her memory, she is taken in by a widower and his daughter for the holiday season. It promises some laughs and romance and some beautiful scenery.

One of Us is Lying Season 2

A murder mystery at a school promises a lot of drama, secrets and tension. The show continues with the main characters from the first season following a suspensful text. You’ll be the edge of your seat throughout this entire season.

1899

If you enjoy a more historical drama, then check out 1899, a film about an immigrant ship headed to New York, but has to abruptly change its course when mysterious events occur.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit our world, a lot of different ripple effects took hold over society. One of those ripple effects was that citizens were required to stay at home, and socially distance themselves from everyone else. Movie theaters shut down, and as a result, because just continued binging their favorite series on various streaming platforms such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, or others. But now that the pandemic has taken a bit of a breather, have people decided movie theaters are out of style?

A New Age

Even though theaters opened back up, there’s no secret that people weren’t exactly rushing to go back. After all, there are seemingly unlimited movies available to watch on our home screens, and with the advent of surround sound and advanced TVs that have come out—sometimes our home screen is more than enough.

The Magic of the Theater

However, while yes, movie theaters may have lost a step—they aren’t gone for good. We do believe that there will always be a certain magic about going to a movie theater. This is something that the older generations understand. And while it may take the younger generation some time to realize it as well, movie theater companies have been working tirelessly to reinvent themselves and show that they’re still very much in the game.
