The One Show That Everyone Should Watch on Netflix

There are plenty of binge-worthy shows on Netflix that deserve to be watched by everyone. But, the one show that everyone should DEFINITELY watch, should be Sense8. If you're the person that is looking for a new series to binge watch - I've got you. From romance, to action, to comedy, this show has it all.

Sense8 is a story of eight strangers who live in seven countries around the world - US, India, South Korea, Kenya, UK, Germany, and Mexico. The eight protagonists in the story are connected by their subconscious minds, or limbic resonance which is what they call it in the show. They can access each others' thoughts, knowledge, and actions. All of them can be at the same place, the same given time and make things happen physically, even though they aren't actually there. The eight main characters of the story are basically a different species of humans, called the homo-sensoriums.

The plot in the story is basically that there is an organization that is trying to hunt them down, called the BPO. The reason that they're doing this is because homo-sensoriums are a threat to homo-sapiens. They can't keep secrets, neither can they lie about anything.

Some of the things that I personally loved about this show is the fact that the story is science fiction mixed with romance, comedy, and hardcore action scenes that you would expect in a typical Hollywood action movie. The main characters are native of the particular country that they're shown in the show, making it one of the most ethnically diverse shows. As all the characters are from different countries, the entire show is shot in several different countries and cities around the world. The first season itself was shot in eight countries and nine cities. The second season was shot across eleven countries and sixteen cities.

Not only the locations and the characters, but the storyline is pretty darn good as well. Sense8 has taught me so many lessons, and it also promotes a cause that I very truly believe in - racial equality. You see all these characters visiting different countries all across the globe and enriching into the culture. You see two characters from two completely different cultures falling in love with each other and accepting each other for who they are.

Another reason I have such a huge respect for this show is because of the transgender role two of the characters play. It portrays the raw and pure love between the couple, and the difficult times that they go through. It's not all sunshine and roses, and that fact is presented extremely well. Empathy was best portrayed by the characters. They understood what the other person was going through, and they were there whenever someone needed them. They didn't judge each other's actions. Even though they were inter-connected, they ultimately led their own lives. The sensates were there to help whenever another sensate needed it, no matter what they're trying to do, good or evil.

In addition to some of the lessons learned, the comedy is also my favorite aspect of this show. To give you a brief introduction - imagine a guy feeling the cramps and the mood swings that a women feels during her period - the perfectly hilarious combo one could ever ask for (This happens as they can feel each others' action and what they're going through, like I mentioned earlier). Combine such hilarious scenes with a little funny, vulgar language and you have your day made right there.

Moving on to the action scenes, we have one of our sensate's, Wolfgang, always indulging into trouble as he's a thief. I'm not going to spoil the story, but the actions scenes are also worth watching.

To be honest, this is THE best show I've ever seen. If you decide to watch only one show in your life, let it be this one. I promise you will not be disappointed.
