Winter 2019 TV Watchlist

The Witcher - Netflix - Dec 20th

A new fantasy series to fill that very large Game of Thrones sized void, staring the always delectable Henry Cavill as a monster slayer…Sign me up! I have not read the books or played the highly popular video game adaptation but I am intrigued by this world that we have glimpsed at through the trailers and it looks promising.

The Expanse Season 4 - Amazon Prime - 13th Dec

The Expanse may just be the best show on TV about space right now and I am so thrilled that Amazon Prime saved this gem and by the looks of it boosted the budget quite profusely. I am quite a new fan of the show as I only started watching it last December after my sister’s boyfriend recommended it, I binged the show in like 2 weeks.

Avenue 5 - HBO & Now TV - January

And now something else set in space but dealing with a wholly different subject material…Space Tourism. This looks to be one of the funniest shows hitting our screens this season as creator Armando Iannucci the man behind Thick of It and Death of Stalin is writing and directing and Hugh Laurie is leading the show.

The Valhalla Murders - Netflix & RÚV - End of Dec

Ooh, serial murder in Iceland! In the grand tradition of the Nordic crime thriller, The Valhalla Murders looks to be just the chilling serial killer drama we all want this winter.

You Season 2 - Netflix - Dec 26th

Joe will be back and creepier than ever but there isn’t a trailer yet!!! I found You to be utterly creepy and extremely addictive viewing so here’s hoping to an equally disturbing season 2.

초콜릿 (Chocolate) - Netflix & JTBC - Already Airing!

Two episodes have already aired and I am in love with the vibe of this drama, it’s nostalgic, emotional and sweet. It’s also just like eating chocolate or having a cup of cocoa on a cold Winters night, it’s heartwarming and like a little slice of happiness to get through this cold season. The story focuses on a Neurosurgeon and a Chef who met by chance when they were kids and by chance, they encounter each other again.

사랑의 불시착 (Crash Landing on You) - Netflix & tvN - Dec 14th

Hyun Bin (Memories of the Alhambra) and Son Ye-jin (Something in the Rain) in a romantic comedy together, yes, please. Ever since this drama was announced, I have been counting down till December. Both actors have been in some of my favourite dramas this past couple of years so it’s awesome to see them in something together, and judging by the trailers it is going to be romantic and hilarious!

That’s all the TV shows I’ll be watching this Winter, no doubt the list will grow as more TV shows get released but I think this uncanny mix of Sci-fi & fantasy, Crime and Romance will get me through this dark and dreary season.

Let me know in the comments section what TV Shows you’ll be watching this season too.
