10 great shows to watch on Netflix right now

10. Lucifer

Who hasn’t heard about Lucifer on Netflix? The series is constantly trending on Twitter whenever a new season premieres (and ahead of new premiere debuts), but have you actually watched it?

Of all the shows Netflix has available, Lucifer is the one with the most incredible history! The series first premiered on Fox and aired there for three seasons before being canceled. Fans weren’t about to allow that to happen, so they made some noise.

In the end, Netflix ended up reviving Netflix and giving it another season. But after season 4, the streaming service declared season 5 to be the last. Once again, fans begged for more. Ask and you shall receive! Netflix split season 5 into two parts and there is a sixth and final season coming soon.

9. Cobra Kai

Cobra Kai originally premiered on YouTube Premium, but Netflix is now streaming the first two seasons. When I tell you Cobra Kai has all the nostalgic feels you are craving, I mean it!

The series is based on the Karate Kid movies and takes place 30 years after the events. The story follows Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) and Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) try to balance their life after the events of the last movie.

Is the rivalry still alive? Check out the trailer (above) and find out! But even if you haven’t watched the movies (which we recommend that you do), you’ll enjoy the series.

8. The Umbrella Academy

Another series you have likely heard about is The Umbrella Academy, one of the most unique and entertaining shows on the streaming titan.

The series follows the six extraordinary children billionaire Sir Reginald Hargreeves adopted, each with a unique power. Everything about the children is mysterious, as they were born from a mother who did not even know she was pregnant until it came time to give birth.

Sir Reginald Hargreeves trained and raised them to become a superhero group known as the Umbrella Academy. Now that they are adults, they’ve grown apart, but come together for their father’s funeral.

Tired of superhero shows and movies? The Umbrella Academy is different, trust me! It’s an emotional and family drama-packed ride you won’t want to leave. It stars Aidan Gallagher, Ellen Page, Robert Sheehan, Tom Hopper, and more.
