The Best Binge-Worthy Supernatural Shows to Watch Right Now

There's nothing like the unscripted drama of real people fighting to see their dreams realized, which is why reality competition shows are so addictive. And with Netflix's already stacked library constantly expanding, it's becoming increasingly difficult to figure out which of these shows are worth that weekend binge since most tend to get lost in the mix.

May is the best month in the Northern Hemisphere. It's not cold like March, and there's almost no chance of snow, unlike April. It is the beautiful spring of postcards, with trees full of green leaves and flowers in full bloom. But things are a bit weird this year, so if you're choosing to stay inside this May to avoid getting sick, no one can blame you. Luckily, there are some great options to soak up while you wait out the coronavirus and your seasonal allergies.

April showers bring May flowers, and what do May flowers bring? Great movies and TV shows to watch on Netflix, that's what. The world's top streaming service is adding some great content to watch as quarantine enters its second month. Our picks include the new season of cult comedy Workin' Moms, cinematic musical drama miniseries The Eddy, an interactive Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt special, and much, much more.

Hulu has already announced everything that's coming to the streaming service in May, but we all know that about 75 percent of that is straight trash. What you're really looking for is what the good things are from that monstrous list, and it's our job — nay, our duty and honor and privilege — to peruse the list for you and pick out the best things to watch.

You don't have to be a moody, hormonal teenager to enjoy watching programming about moody, hormonal teenagers. We've all been there, so it's all familiar to us. And between the edgy murder mysteries, irreverent comedies, heartwarming coming-of-age dramas, and supernatural romances, Netflix has an expansive slate of teen TV shows that make it easy to find your perfect binge for any mood you might be in.

Quibi is the newest addition to the streaming service landscape. Focused solely on short-form, mobile-only videos, Quibi delivers "quick bite" content with episodes under 10 minutes or less. The service has an impressive programming slate lined up, and it launched with 50 shows featuring some of today's hottest talent, including Jennifer Lopez, Liam Hemsworth, Reese Witherspoon, Sophie Turner, and Chrissy Teigen.

The coronavirus pandemic has left much of the country inside their own houses in self-quarantine, staying healthy to flatten curves and provide a future for, you know, everything. For the healthy at home, that means we've had plenty of time to fix that leaky faucet, finish that screenplay, and learn a few new languages. Just kidding, we've been watching TV. And that's totally fine.

Looking out the window is getting pretty old. Why not really escape your self-quarantine with a little out-of-this-world action from the greatest genre (we're biased) of television there is? Science-fiction TV is the perfect vacation from the realities of the world, offering moral questions about our present in a glossed-up package of spaceships, advanced technology, and the unexplained.

Not everyone has money to burn. We can't all shell out money every month for Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+ and/or whatever other streaming service subscriptions are fighting for our hard-earned cash these days.

The Strokes‘ comeback album, The New Abnormal, features cover art that might be familiar to Jean-Michel Basquiat fans. It contains a portion of the late artist’s 1981 painting, Birds on Money.

No doubt about it — these are trying times for everyone, and the need for a little bit of bliss amid the chaos has never been more pressing. One of the best ways to soothe the soul is with music, so there may never be a better time to watch (or rewatch) some of the greatest musical TV shows of all time, Cop Rock not included.

We know you're tired of hearing about all the different streaming services you should subscribe to (especially since there are so, so many), but you should strongly consider subscribing to BritBox, which offers subscribers access to the best in British programming for just $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year. A subscription means you no longer have to dig through Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon to find your favorite British programs under all the American shows that are given priority.

Hulu has announced everything that's coming to the streaming service in April, but we know your time is so valuable that you can't afford to look at it. You just want the facts: WHAT IS GOOD? Well thank the TV gods that I'm here, because it's my job to tell you what's trash and what's not trash.

In the old days, in order to get your superhero fix, you had to hide under the covers with a flashlight and read a comic book after your parents went to sleep, or you had to slip a comic into a Bible and sneak in a few pages during Sunday school (at least that's what movies have told us). Now, you can't change three channels or flip through two tiles on a streaming service without seeing someone in tights saving the day. And we aren't complaining!

When it comes to finding a show about the macabre reality that is true crime, no place is better than Netflix. With hit series after hit series, it seems the streaming service is coming out with a must-see true crime show every couple of weeks. As long as people keep committing crimes, Netflix will keep pumping out true crime shows, and we'll continue to watch them.

At this stage of self-quarantine — which you're doing to protect yourself and your community, so you're not complaining — you might be getting tired of bingeing comedy series with a lot of episodes. You're running low on episodes of Superstore to watch on Hulu, and you've already watched every episode of The Office twice.

Quibi is the newest addition to the streaming service landscape. Focused solely on short-form, mobile-only videos, Quibi delivers "quick bite" content with episodes under 10 minutes or less. The service has an impressive programming slate lined up, and it launched with 50 shows featuring some of today's hottest talent, including Jennifer Lopez, Liam Hemsworth, Reese Witherspoon, Sophie Turner, and Chrissy Teigen.

One reason horror movies are so great is that they make for a perfect distraction from anything that might be on your mind. And if you're anything like us, you could surely use a good distraction right about now.

So Disney+ expanded its worldwide roll-out with the UK getting the service just last week. The Mouse House’s streamer is bursting with tons of content, including most of their huge back catalogue, but what should you check out first? We took the weekend to take a good hard look at the service to try to recommend some of the new titles for our readers, and here are six of the best titles to access right now.
