2026 Watch Diary: What Kept Me Company While Living, Working & Romanticizing Life
22
items Every month I’m collecting all the shows and movies that kept me company while working, cooking, or just taking a break.
It’s my little monthly recap of what I watched.
Maybe books will join in the future… but for now, just shows and films.

The series that basically lived with me this month.
Background comfort, late-night binges, period drama obsessions, fantasy worlds and “just one more episode” energy.
I loved how the show doesn’t just celebrate Mozart’s genius, but digs into the messy human emotions around his relationship with Salieri. Envy, frustration, the sense of being overshadowed, and it presents these themes in a way that feels emotional a...
Amadeus
I love Bridgerton! the period drama, the costumes, the romance, the world of high society. But I really didn’t like how this season was split into two parts and how far apart they are. It makes the flow feel so broken. I felt like the story this time...
Bridgerton
I didn’t know much about him before watching and wow, people online feel very strongly about this guy. Some find it gross and uncomfortable because he comes off as a narcissistic and controversial figure with a lot of messy behavior.
Paparazzi King
I loved the tone, the vibe, and how different it feels from Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon. As a fan of the universe, I was so into the quieter, character-driven storytelling and the focus on honor, growth, and friendship between Dunk and Eg...
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
Fallout is set in a post-apocalyptic world where life continues underground in massive vaults, long after nuclear devastation reshaped society. With season two now out, it feels like a good time to jump back in. The show remains visually striking, at...
Fallout
I can’t believe I waited this long to watch Sex and the City. I didn’t expect it to feel this current, but it genuinely does. The conversations the characters have about relationships, social dynamics, expectations and female friendships are so real ...
Sex and the City (TV Series 1998–2004)
It's definitely darker and more intense than I expected. The animation is gorgeous and the characters are super layered, but it’s not exactly a ‘background show’. You actually have to pay attention. Still, if you’re into fantasy with emotion, chaos, ...
The Mighty Nein
I know I’m late to this one, but I finally started it.
Currently on Season 1 and not done yet. I feel like this is going to be a long comfort-watch journey.
Emily in Paris
In 2025 i enjoyed “the khardashians” so i decided to hop on this 20 seasons show that took place during my teenage years.
Keeping Up with the Kardashians (TV Series 2007–2021)
This version really delivers that modern fantasy adventure + Greek mythology vibe with way more heart and world‑building than I expected. It’s fun seeing Percy, Annabeth, and Grover actually grow into their quest and face monsters, gods, and the chao...
Percy Jackson and the Olympians (TV Series 2023– )
The Glory hit so hard for me: it’s not a light watch, it’s deep, gripping, and honestly kind of intense. The story follows Moon Dong‑eun, who was bullied brutally and relentlessly in high school, so much that it derailed her dreams. Years later she b...
The Glory (TV Series 2022–2023)
I tried watching this one, but honestly I couldn’t really get into it. It felt familiar, like something I’ve seen a hundred times before and it just didn’t grab me the way I hoped. I wasn’t hooked, and I totally get not understanding the hype that wa...
Wicked: For Good (2025)
Guillermo del Toro’s adaptation of Mary Shelley’s classic has that gothic horror meets emotional depth vibe that’s rare in big movie retellings. What I loved most is how it feels both beautiful and haunting: the worldbuilding, the performances, and t...
Frankenstein (2025)
It’s less straight‑up horror and more like a dark love story with mythic vibes. The plot follows a 15th‑century prince who, after witnessing his wife’s brutal death, is cursed with eternal life and becomes Dracula on a quest to reunite with her while...
Dracula
The visuals and worldbuilding are super sleek and futuristic, merging digital constructs with the real world in a way that really pulls you in visually: the neon, the design, the action vibes are full‑on Tron energy.
Tron: Ares (2025)
February
The cinematic moment(s) of the month. Big screen vibes, main character feelings, and the kind of TV shows/films that deserved my full attention (or at least tried to).
I started watching The Artful Dodger recently and I’m still deciding how I feel about it. It’s not a light or comforting show, the tone is quite dark and sometimes even a bit disturbing, especially during the surgical scenes. The story follows a tale...
The Artful Dodger
I honestly found the story fascinating but also very complex. It’s not a simple love story at all. The relationships are intense, messy, and deeply psychological. Catherine, the main character, is especially complicated; there were moments when I fel...
Wuthering Heights (2026)
It’s definitely a very typical teenage romance, with a lot of familiar clichés. The story follows a girl who moves to Italy and starts attending an elite international school for wealthy students. As expected, she quickly gets pulled into complicated...
Love Me Love Me
March
March is mostly a “finishing and rewatching” month for me. I’m still working my way through a few long shows I started earlier, including *Sex and the City*, *Keeping Up with the Kardashians*, *Emily in Paris*, and *The Mighty Nine*. I’m also continu...
The Art of Sarah is a Korean mystery thriller I recently watched on Netflix, and it’s one of those shows that really rewards attention. The premise is fascinating: on the surface it appears to be about a glamorous woman leading a luxury fashion brand...
Watch The Art of Sarah
I just finished watching Season 2 of the One Piece live-action series on Netflix, and honestly… I enjoyed it even more than the first one. You can really feel that the production stepped up this season. The world feels bigger, the action scenes are m...
One Piece
I’d say you’ll watch this movie only to put an end to the peaky blinders’ saga. Nothing special tbh, it’s just a conclusion, they could’ve done better I believe. But the actual TV show is a must watch absolutely.
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man (2026)
As a woman I was so disappointed and frustrated by how the case has been handled.
