Top Streaming Categories Moms Want

Are you tired of scrolling through the same old horror, reality, and documentaries on your streaming platform? Well, you’re not alone! Sometimes it feels like the algorithm just doesn’t quite get us, right? That’s why I’ve put together a list of streaming categories that moms like us wish existed. Take note, Netflix, Peacock, HBO, and all the rest—here are some ideas for new and exciting categories that would make our streaming experience even more enjoyable.

First up, how about a category dedicated to “Shows Set In Quaint Towns”? Give us all the cozy vibes of Gilmore Girls’ Stars Hollow or the charming landscapes of Virgin River. There’s just something about a small-town setting that makes a show feel relaxing and enjoyable, like a little escape from reality.

And let’s not forget about “Kids’ Shows Parents Won’t Despise.” After binge-watching Bluey with the kids, it’s clear that children’s entertainment doesn’t have to be a chore. Why not add Avatar: The Last Airbender, Pokémon Concierge, Bee and PuppyCat, and Rugrats to this category for some quality family-friendly content?

For those of us who love a good sports romance, how about a category called “Shows Like Heated Rivalry”? More LGBTQ+ love stories with a sports element, please! Imagine watching gems like Olympo, Heartstopper, and Fellow Travelers—it’s a winning combination.

Who doesn’t love a sitcom with coffee shop scenes? A category dedicated to “Sitcoms With Coffee Shop Scenes” sounds like the perfect way to unwind. Whether it’s Fraser or Seinfeld, something about a neighborhood coffee shop or dive bar just feels right.

And let’s not forget about “Movies With Great Kitchens.” From Practical Magic to The Holiday, there’s something special about a movie with a beautifully designed kitchen. It’s the perfect setting for memorable moments and heartwarming scenes.

Finally, how about a category for “Shows & Movies Where Moms Do Something Badass”? As a fan of kickass mom moments in entertainment, I can’t get enough of characters like Cara Buono in Season 5 of Stranger Things. This category could include iconic films like Kill Bill and Panic Room—because who doesn’t love a strong mom saving the day?

These are just a few ideas for new streaming categories that would make our binge-watching sessions even more enjoyable. What categories would you create if you had the chance to pitch your ideas to Netflix? Let’s dream big and make our streaming experience even better!
