My Favorite TV Shows Right Now

It’s been a little while since I shared a favorites post here on the blog!

 

While I was going through a season of reading early this year, I’ve now sort of dialed back on it and started watching a little more TV. I am a lover of reality shows (I know, they can be so dramatic!), romantic comedies, and true/fictional crime shows.

 

I drive my husband a little crazy with my tv choices. In fact, the only ones that we seem to both enjoy watching together are music competition shows (like The Voice or American Idol) and the new Marvel series’.

 

Anyhoo, let’s dive into a few of my absolute favorite TV shows at the moment!

 

Cruel Summer

 

I am obsessed with this new show on Hulu! If you don’t have Hulu and are interested in the show, it’s definitely worth joining to check it out. 

 

I think it is based off of a book, but I haven’t read it. The periods switch between 1993, 1994, and 1995. They do a really good job of not making you feel like they’re jumping all over the place. 

 

It truly keeps you guessing as to who is really telling the truth, who is the real victim in the scenario, and what’s actually going to happen in each episode.

 

Teen Mom

 

I am loving both Teen Mom OG and Teen Mom 2. I know these are two different variations, but I’m tying them in together since they’re both in the Teen Mom franchise. 

 

Teen Mom OG just wrapped up last week, and now Teen Mom 2 is on this week! This show is usually a love or hate thing, and it’s definitely understandable. I’ve watched the OG mom’s since the very beginning, so I sort of feel like I grew up watching them as they grew up and faced challenges. 

 

OG is certainly my favorite, but I really enjoy Teen Mom 2 and am a big fan of Leah on there. She’s such a champion for mental health and personal growth. 

 

Organized Crime

 

Any Stabler fans reading this? I have loved him from the beginning of Law & Order: SVU. Watching Stabler and Liv work together was always interesting to me back in the day, and I was really sad when he left the show ten years ago.

 

So I was super excited when I found out he was coming back on SVU and also had his own show! Honestly, it’s been a sad return for the character and a lot of bad things are happening, but I think they’ve done a great job with Organized Crime so far. 

 

I also really like Dylan McDermott, even though I’m not so happy about him being a bad guy. 

 

My Favorite TV Shows Right Now

 

That’s a wrap on my favorite TV shows right now, friends!

 

Can’t wait to hear all of your favorites and if you’ve seen any of the ones I wrote about.

      You’re welcome, Kathrine! Let me know if you end up watching Cruel Summer. I think I’m six episodes in and am still hooked! I don’t currently have Netflix, but I’ll definitely keep those in mind if I go back to it. I switch back and forth on streaming services, haha.

    I don’t get a lot of time to watch TV shows – when I do get a rare moment (maybe once a week if I’m lucky) I stick with fun ones like Nailed it or Superstore – also loved friends and Schitt’s Creek. Comedies are my go-to! 🙂

    Hope you are having a good day 🙂

    I haven´t seen any of it. At the moment I kind of rewatch HIMYM. I wanted something funny, that I can watch, but nothing that takes too much of my time so the 20 minute episodes are perfect 🙂

    have a great day,

    Hi Ashley, I hope you are well! I haven’t seen any of these, so thanks for the suggestions. Cruel Summer sounds very interesting. I’m more of a movie person so when I have free time I love to watch new movies or my older favourites. Hope you have a great week:)

My multiple planner friends will understand the ‘very first’ part! 😉
 
While I haven’t used a Blue Sky planner in a really long time, I have always appreciated their beautiful covers, their accessibility because I find them often at my local Walmart, and their affordability.
 
This chic Blue Sky Life-Note It Planning Calendar in the Latte cover (could there be a better option for me than a cover named after COFFEE?!) is an 8.5x11 productivity machine! ✨ It gives a luxury vibe with the gold coil and written year, and has plenty of space for us ladies who need to write down ALL the things.
 
If you’re a fellow planner girl, feel free to hop over to my YouTube Channel for a full walkthrough of this beautiful planner and you can visit my LTK Shop for the link! Both 🔗 can be found in my bio! 
 
What do you think of this Blue Sky planner? I’d also love to know if you’ve picked up your 2027 planner(s) yet?
