Dollface should be your next watch if you love a show that centers on the importance of female friendships and the bonds you share with your closest girlfriends. The show centers on Jules, who after breaking up with her ex, rekindles her estranged relationship with her old friends.
Music and vinyl lovers beware: you’ll be obsessed with this show’s soundtrack long after it’s over. A remake of the 2000 movie, High Fidelity follows Rob, a forlorn record store owner that recounts all of her past loves, with the help of a little vinyl, to try and figure out what went wrong.
