With the new school year starting, it is time for college students to get back to their roots.
Netflix binge-watching is an important part of college culture. While it is an entertaining pastime, a recurring problem is running out of shows to watch.
Do not worry: Netflix was prepared for that and is releas- ing multiple new seasons of var- ious shows this fall.

“Cable Girls”: Season 3 re- leased September 2018:
“Cable Girls” takes place during the ‘Roaring ‘20s’ era and centers on the continuous drama that follows the lives of four women who all work together as cable girls.

These are just a few fall releases but there is a variety of shows in which to get lost. The streaming service offers many classic binge-worthy shows. “The Office,” “Breaking Bad” and “New Girl” are all worth binging.
