Top Ten Movies & TV Shows
I like this, friends! Changing it up from books and recognizing that great stories come in many media. Woo hoo! As someone who loves books AND TV AND the movies, I love this list. I broke it down into two separate mini lists, and deliberately cut it off at exactly 10 because this list could’ve EASILY gotten way out of hand.
Supernatural
One of my FAVORITE shows of ALL TIME. The Winchester brothers are broody and dark and their lives are twisted and sad and dangerous. LOVE THEM. Plus the paranormal aspects are legit, even if the show was better earlier in its run, IMO. It’s still amazing.
Once Upon a Time
I’m sorry, did you guys think I would leave off a show based on fairy tales? We know each other, right? #HookEm
The Vampire Diaries
It’s not cheating to have a TV show based on books on here, right? I mean, I’ve never read the books, but the show is addicting. I’m a little behind on this most recent season, but this is consistently one of the most dramatic shows around. Plus, Damon.
New Girl
So maybe season 3 wasn’t AS funny as the first two, but goodness gracious, friends, I LOL all the time watching this show. I need a Schmidt in my life. I mean, don’t we all?
Legend of Korra
I love the Avatar universe. It’s so captivating and fun. I love Korra a LOT because it’s like YA Avatar. It’s got the action and fighting, plus the emotions of relationships of all kinds.
Friday Night Lights
BEST SHOW EVER. That is all. (Legit, it’s probably my favorite show ever. Maybe a few other shows are bunched up with it, but this one is so close to the top.)
Almost Famous
I just love this movie to bits. It’s been one of my favorite movies ever since I saw it in the theater. I love the music and the time period and relationships.
Brave
While I LOVE Brave a lot, it’s also basically a stand-in for ALL THE DISNEY MOVIES. There’s little I love more than indulging in my inner kiddo, and there’s no better way to do that then pop on a Disney movie.
Steel Magnolias
I’m from New Jersey, which is just about as opposite from Louisiana as you can get, but I’ve always loved this movie HARD. I love the friendships between these women. I laugh and I sob uncontrollably when I watch it. What better story could I ask for?
Ever After
More fairy tales, I know. But I know this movie like the back of my hand and have incredibly fond memories of it. I just love it. Angelica Huston is amazing at throwing zingers around, and I love Drew Barrymore in this. Sometimes she annoys me, but not here.
Oh, Steel Magnolias is such a beautiful movie. I loved it. I also adore New Girl, but I need to do a bit of a catch up with it! Great list.
Loved Supernatural. Your blog looks cute.
Kero
I love Ever After! Such a great movie. It’s on Netflix for streaming, and I’ve been thinking I need to re-watch it (again!).
I love Disney movies (hence my TTT today) but Brave isn’t my favorite. Although I loved the actual look of the movie – it just didn’t feel as awesome as my favorites. Although I love Merida’s hair. I have curly hair, and I can tell that the animators really tried to make her hair look authentic.
Yeay, Once upon a time! 🙂 Captain swan. Ever after also made it too much list, such a cute movie. What I love about Brave is the accents! The twist with her mother surprised me. New girl is so funny, even when they kinda lost their.. ‘oemph’ I hope they pick it up soon 🙂
Legend of Korra!! Yes… Avatar Air Bender.. YES! I love those soooo much!
No matter how many times I’ve watched Steel Magnolias, I sob too – every time. If you like Once Upon a Time, you should check out Grimm. My SIL recommended it and I love it. She also likes OUaT and I have it on my watch list now too.

Ever After!!! I’m so excited to see how many people have this on their list this week, because it was one of the first that I added to mine. <3 &&also New Girl. I love that show and how crazy quirky they all are. My favorite will always be the Christmas episode when Jess runs into the doors and Winston still believes in Santa Claus. hahaha!
Here's my Top Ten Movies, if you’d like to check them out!
Once Upon a Time and Supernatural both made my list! love how you divided half series, half movies. Ever after would have likely made a favorite movie list. Brave was also really good!
