In 2023, we are spoilt for choice when it comes to television shows. This year the audience also gets the variety it craved for so long with the new Star Wars to a second season of the popular drama Ginny and Georgia. There is a show to binge for everyone.
Like Nathan Fielder from The Rehearsal (HBO), we too believe there is no social interaction you can not prepare for, you only need to know enough about TV. It helps you plan your small talk and avoid those uncomfortable silences at get-togethers. It is a fool-proof plan, if the person you meet knows the show you just watched as you can discuss dialogue, scenes, highs and lows. Even if they haven't seen the show you could always talk about what you liked and give them a recommendation.
We have compiled a list of shows/ future small talk pieces for you to watch this weekend.
