#23. Fuller House
The continuation of Full House brings new airs and a story full of strong female characters that we can’t help but love. In the original series, a widowed broadcaster had to raise his three children with the help of his brother-in-law and reckless best friend, and let’s face it, some of the episodes were truly heart-breaking! But unlike the famous 80s show, this Netflix reboot is way less tragic and it will make you laugh non-stop!
In this new series, the actress Candance Cameron-Bure is in the role of D.J. Tanner, a widow with three sons. Despite her sad past, she’s a happy-go-lucky woman who enjoys life and raises her children with the help of her sister Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin) and her best friend Kimmy (Andrea Barber). Don’t miss it, it’s a lovely and uplifting show!
#22. Younger
If you were born in the 90s, you probably remember actress and singer Hillary Duff in the Disney Channel series Lizzie McGuire. For those of our generation, nothing made us happier than the day Younger was released in 2015. Of course, its plot is very different from that of Lizzie McGuire, but it’s just as hilarious!
Duff is in the role of Kelsey Peters, a 20-year-old publishing employee who meets Liza Miller (Sutton Foster), a 40-year-old woman who looks much younger. Miller decides to reboot her career and her love life pretending to be a 26-year-old, and that’s when all the fun begins. The series is based on Pamela Redmond Satran’s novel with the same name.
#21. Jane The Virgin

Of course, any comedy would be incomplete without a romance, and let me tell you that this series is full of oldfashioned love tales, set in a time long before date-apps and internet existed. Are you ready to travel back in time to the early 20th century? This is your chance!
