Are You Still Watching…Unlike Me?

Abby Stiner

Do you like Netflix? I wish I could like Netflix. Recently, I had to cancel my subscription and it is causing me grief. To make up for my loss, I conducted a survey of GBHS students and staff members’ favorite shows to binge watch on Netflix. If you are in need of a new binge-worthy show to watch, check out the shows that the rest of GBHS enjoys. Here are what your peers are watching:

After the murder of Thomas and Martha Wayne, Gotham City Police Dept. detective James Gordon seemed to solve the case quickly, but not so fast. Inspired by young Bruce Wayne’s desire for justice, Gordon promises to find it amid Gotham’s corruption. Gordon begins his quest that would set him against his own companions and the underworld with their own deadly rivalries and mysteries. In the coming wars, compromises will be made as some criminal will rise as supervillains. All the while, Bruce sees this war with a growing obsession that would one day drive him to seek his own revenge.
