21 TV shows to stream while you quarantine | Arts & Entertainment - Colorado Springs Gazette

All because you have to practice social distancing doesn't mean you can't quarantine and chill. 

Make the most of being sequestered by catching up on TV shows that you've heard about but never had time to watch, or buzz-worthy series you've been meaning to look into. 

Here's some suggestions to get you started.

"Love is Blind" (One season, 11 episodes) - Forget "The Bachelor," this new reality series featuring singles looking for love is much more intense.
