So, I was watching this show, “Star-Crossed,” right? It’s about this alien guy who falls in love with a human girl, and of course, their love is all forbidden and dramatic. I got totally hooked! But then, boom, it ended. I was like, “No way! What am I gonna watch now?” I really needed to find something similar to fill that void.
First, I did what any normal person would do—I hit up Google. I typed in something like “shows similar to Star-Crossed” and hoped for the best. You know, sometimes Google can be a real lifesaver. I scrolled through a bunch of results, some random forums, and some “best of” lists.
Brainstorming Similar Shows
I started thinking about what I liked about “Star-Crossed.” It’s got that whole forbidden love thing, a bit of sci-fi, and some good drama. So, I made a little list in my head:
- Forbidden love: Romeo and Juliet, but with aliens or supernatural stuff.
- Sci-fi element: Aliens, different worlds, maybe some cool powers.
- Drama: I wanted something that would keep me on the edge of my seat.
Then, I remembered a few shows that kinda fit the bill. “Stranger Things” popped into my head. It’s got the mystery and supernatural elements, though not really the romance part. But still, it’s a great show, so I jotted it down.
Diving into Recommendations
I found a few websites that had some pretty good recommendations, like “Still Star-Crossed,” a series developed by Heather Mitchell and based on the 2013 novel of the same name by Melinda Taub. It sounded really interesting, so I added it to my list.
I also asked some friends who are into the same kind of shows. One of them suggested “Psych” and mentioned it’s similar to “The Mentalist.” I hadn’t seen either, but I trust her taste, so I added those to the list, too.
Making My Watchlist
After all that digging and asking around, I ended up with a pretty solid list of shows to check out. Here’s what I’ve got so far:
- Stranger Things: For the mystery and supernatural vibes.
- Still Star-Crossed: Based on the title alone, this one seemed promising.
- Psych: My friend’s recommendation. It doesn’t sound super similar, but I figured it’s worth a shot.
- The Mentalist: Apparently, it’s similar to “Psych,” so why not?
I’ve already started watching “Still Star-Crossed,” and it’s pretty good! It’s got that whole period drama thing going on, which is a nice twist. I’m excited to see where it goes.
So yeah, that’s my little journey of finding shows similar to “Star-Crossed.” It took a bit of searching and asking around, but I think I’ve found some good replacements. If you have any other recommendations, let me know! I’m always up for a new show to binge-watch.
