It’s that kind of summer bestie.
This summer is all about relaxing and not doing much, just because of the many events that have happened this year that have made us SO lazy. Sometimes, we’re all better off sitting on a couch to stay still and have a sweet treat.
We have all entered our iPad kid era, where you spend an unhealthy amount of hours on your screen and get a weekly notification from your Screen Time app that you spend 24 hours daily on your device.
We support all your rights and wrongs, girl. We are here to contribute underrated shows to watch for this summer and add to your must-watch list.
Married at First Sight
Why you’ll 💘: In every season, clinical physiologist John Aiken, neuropsychotherapist Dr. Trisha Stratford, and psychologist Sabina Read choose about 8 singles. They come to find themselves looking for love on this show and experiment with one another.
Summer House
Why you’ll 💘: Honestly, the Bravo universe is a whole lore to unlock as there are so many shows. However, this one focuses on a group of 20- —and 30-somethings living in New York City who venture to the Hamptons every weekend to party at their summer house, and the drama is just insane to keep up with.
Below Deck
Why you’ll 💘: This show has multiple franchises, from Below Deck Meditternean to Down Under (Australia). It’s basically about the lives of crew members on a mega yacht who are dealing with their personal issues, life, and relationships. There is also a lot of competition amongst their colleagues. The tea is piping HOT.
Vandepump Villa
Why you’ll 💘: If you know about Vanderpump Rules or anything related to the queen of Bravo, AKA Lisa Vanderpump, you probably missed out on her new show, Vanderpump Villa, which is currently airing its first season on Hulu. The show takes place at a French chateau and showcases the lives of staff members working there and dealing with each other, love, relationships, living, breathing, and working together 24/7.
The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip
Why you’ll 💘: The Real Housewives franchise has taken up a storm since the 2010s, but nobody talks about how there is a whole series about how some of them gather around and go on a girls’ trip, as it is a common theme every season in the other series’ to do a girls trip and this time it’s different because they are housewives from different cities and series that come together solely for the trip.
Are You The One?
Why you’ll 💘: This show gathers 10 single men and women on a quest to find love. But here’s a twist: The contestants work together to correctly identify everybody’s perfect match, plus they get to stay in a huge mansion/villa for the next 10 weeks to win 1 million dollars and find love.
Big Brother UK
Why you’ll 💘: So you’re telling me you can’t do 20 seasons of a binge-watch spree of Big Brother UK, sureee bestie, we believe in you, lol. This show’s other brother, which is Big Brother USA, is a fan fave, but nobody seems to talk about the UK one. To keep you up to speed, it’s about a group of people who live in isolation from the world at a house. Under surveillance, they are given tasks and challenges.
Still feel like rotting in bed and watching shows all day long, so, cancel your plans: these August TV show releases are going to keep you really busy.
