What kind of mom are you? Depending on which on-screen mom you can relate to the most, we’ve got the best reco-MOM-dations for you this Mother’s Day (which you can obviously still watch beyond today):
If you are like Lorelai from ‘Gilmore Girls’
Gilmore Girls
Fueled by caffeine and frozen pizza, you’re quick with a joke, but even quicker to offer up a shoulder to cry on. While you’re a mom first, being a best friend is a close second. Here’s what you should watch:
- Atypical
- Jane the Virgin
- 20th Century Women (Mujeres del Siglo XX)
- Holiday in the Wild (Navidad en Africa)
If you are like Joyce from ‘Stranger Things’
Stranger Things
If you’ll do whatever it takes to protect your kids, even if it means taking matters into your own hands; here’s what you should watch:
- Locke & Key
- Raising Dion (Como Criar a un Superheroe)
- Good Girls (Chicas Buenas)
- I am Mother
If you are like Frankie from ‘Grace & Frankie’
Grace And Frankie Season 6
You’re a free spirit who takes parenting cues from Mother Nature and your shahman. While you might not be PTA president,
no one can compete with you when it comes to arts and crafts. Sound like you? Here’s what you should watch:
- La Casa de las Flores
- Sex Education
- The Goop Lab (The Goop Lab con Gwyneth Paltrow)
- Absurd Planet (Planeta Absurdo)
If you are like Ali Wong in her stand-up specials
If you keep it real AF (and that means embracing all parts of motherhood: the good, the bad, and the Asian pear underwear), here’s what you should watch:
- Train to Busan
- Homecoming
- Roma
- Stranger Things
If you are like Jen from ‘Dead to Me’
Dead to Me
You hold it together for your kids, even when it’s not so easy. If you realy on death metal, white wine, and not-so-subtle
sarcasm to get your through the day; here’s what you should watch:
- Workin’ Moms
- Russian Doll
- Grace & Frankie
- After Life
If you are like Dr. Jean Milburn from ‘Sex Education’
Like sex, parenting is a natural part of life that should be approached with openess and a curious mind, even though your kids might appreciate a little more discretion. Relate? Here’s what you should watch:
- Birthmarked
- Sex, Explained (El Sexo, En Pocas Palabras)
- Unnatural Selection (Seleccion Antinatural)
- 100 Humans: Life’s Questions. Answered (100 Humanos)
- The Politician
