Nights can seem long if you don’t have anything to entertain you, but never fear!
We’ve taken a look at the most popular Netflix series previews in 2020, and here are the best Netflix series to binge for boring nights:
1. Tiger King
Tiger King is a series to watch, if only because you will need to see it to keep up with conversations and late-night comedy joke references and memes.
This docuseries features Joe Exotic, a zookeeper who collects and breeds wild cats, which, be warned, can be seen as cruelty.
He describes himself as a “gay, gun-carrying redneck with a mullet” and is just one of many colorful characters.
2. Queen Sono
This is the first African series to be featured on Netflix. It is the story of a female South African spy who keeps Africa safe from terror and criminal operations while dealing with post traumatic stress disorder and personal difficulties with drugs, alcohol and sex addiction.
This might be one that you save for the best late-night Netflix series to binge on boring nights!
3. Gentefied
This dramatic comedy series is about family, community, and relationships, and the two Chicano writers of the series give it authenticity.
Three Mexican-American cousins want to live the American Dream, but they see how that dream threatens their neighborhood, their immigrant grandfather and the family taco shop.
The community in the series is Los Angeles, and the series deals with themes like identity and class, as well as generational issues, like translating memes for parents.
4. Medical Police
This series is about two American physicians that are stationed at a pediatric hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil. They accidentally discover a virus that threatens civilization itself.
From there, they are recruited as secret government agents, and while working to find a cure as soon as possible, they discover a conspiracy linked to the outbreak.
However sinister that sounds, this series still offers comedy, while being a thriller that is action filled, as well as a love story with an element of mystery.
This is brought to you by the same people who produced Childrens Hospital, so if you liked that, you will probably like this.
5. Unorthodox

It is partly a coming of age story of a 19-year-old Jewish woman who rejects an Ultra-Orthodox community and arranged marriage and partly a thriller.
