Netflix, as a streaming platform not only houses the most popular shows in multiple languages from the world, but it also creates its flagship series and movies, which are only stream-able on Netflix. Designed for all age groups, such as children, teens, and adults, and made in various genres such as romance, horror, flicks, and so on, some of these originals are cinematic masterpieces.
We have created a list of the best Netflix originals to date based on reviews and ratings, and you only need two things to view them. One, a Netflix account (there is a free one-month trial!), and a good internet connection to watch the shows in HD quality. If you do not have the latter, the series will keep on buffering, being stuck and pixelated and the entire experience of watching the show will be ruined.
Therefore, it is vital to invest in an internet plan with great speed and reliable service, so that nothing interrupts your watch. If you are looking for a high-speed internet provider, check out CenturyLink Internet as it offers incredible internet speeds, unlimited internet data, and most importantly 24/7 customer support.
