Netflix has become an integral part of our living rooms. But precisely because of the extremely large number of good series, it can sometimes be difficult to decide on a series. In this overview, we present you with some rather unknown and well-known Netflix series, which are perfect for a series marathon.
Top Netflix series for a series marathon
There are many good Netflix series. The respective top recommendations are always listed on the start page, with which you usually don’t do anything wrong. These include, of course, titles such as Squid Game and Money Heist. We have attached a few other recommended Netflix series that are worth watching.
Money Heist
A criminal mastermind named “The Professor” has a plan. He’s trying to pull off the biggest heist in recorded history – printing billions of euros at the Royal Mint of Spain. To help him implement his ambitious plan, he recruits eight people with certain skills who have nothing to lose. Captivating excitement from the very first minute!
Squid Game
“Squid Game,” created by Hwang Dong-hyuk, features a contest involving some 456 participants in which limitless riches are made available to those who survive a brutal gauntlet of deadly events. These games are borrowed from the children’s playground and add a certain irony to the brutality: for example, more than half of the competitors are shot down in the very first game, a version of “Red Light, Green Light”. Gripping, addicting and brutal, Squid Game is a must-watch on Netflix.
The Tinder-Swindler
Simon Leviev – an Israeli scammer who met women on Tinder and tricked them into lending him money only recently gained global attention. The series is very popular on Netflix right now because it is based on a true story.
Mindhunter
In the late 1970s, two FBI agents (one of them Jonathan Groff) expand forensic science by delving into the psychology of homicide. The series includes the origin of the word “serial killer” and an incredible portrayal of Ed Kemper by Cameron Britton.
Sex Education
This 2019 Netflix Original begins with an embarrassing thought: What if your mom was a sex guru at your high school? For Otis, this is his everyday reality. Awkwardly funny but still entertaining and an excellent Netflix series for a series marathon.
You
Penn Badgley’s stalker character comes across as an awkwardly charming bookseller, but is far more sinister. Find out why people are questioning everything after this series by watching You on Netflix.
Elite
Elite is a Netflix teen drama that’s got a lot of talking right now. Even if you haven’t paid much attention to this genre since Gossip Girl, it’s a great opportunity to get reacquainted with it. Elite follows three working-class teenagers enrolled in a posh private school in Spain. Featuring a clash between the outcasts and the in-crowd that eventually leads to murder.
Bodyguard
After helping ward off a terrorist attack, a war veteran (Richard Madden) is tasked with protecting Britain’s Home Secretary: a key supporter of the war he fought in. This thriller literally invites you to a series marathon.
Of course, you might not find your perfect marathon series straight away, but with Netflix’s huge selection of original series and hit TV, you probably won’t have to look far.
