I promise that this episode will be relaxing, fun, and interesting, because I'm going to recommend 6 TV shows, dramas, and cartoons that you can watch to learn English, or just for fun.

If you ask fluent English speakers, many will tell you they learn from TV shows and dramas, they are not like textbooks.

You see how language is used in real life to achieve various purposes.

But what makes a good and helpful TV show?

For me, it has to be entertaining and inspiring.

I don't suggest watching TV shows with the idea of dissecting every sentence and expression, that can turn it into a burden.

Instead, think of it as part of your overall learning plan to balance with serious study and keep you stress-free.

Just enjoy it, and if you learn something along the way, that's a bonus, right?

Alright, I will recommend 3 genres, cartoons, TV programs, and dramas.

You will find both British and American accents among them, so just go with what you like.

First, cartoons.

They often have very simple stories and clear pronunciation, so the first one I recommend is Peppa Pig.

It has a British accent, and since it's for kids, each episode features fun adventures and everyday activities with repeated words that are great for beginners to grasp basics.

Textbooks can be boring, but cartoons like Peppa Pig make learning-based greetings and expressions fun.

The second is not only one cartoon, but a series, Disney movies like Zootopia.

I love this one.

This movie follows Judy Hobbs, a rabid police officer, and Nick Wilde, a sly fox, as they team up to solve a mystery.

Disney movies have very simple settings and easy dialogues you can follow, although the characters might speak a little bit faster than in Peppa Pig.

Next, TV programs.

I strongly recommend The Ellen Show.

It's full of everyday language and real-life conversations.

This talk show is known for its humor, celebrity interviews, and heartwarming moments.

You get exposed to real English conversations, slang, and idioms.

Now, on to dramas.

My favorite part.

Dramas with plots can excite us and stir our emotions.

The first one is Supernatural, a classic mystery series.

It's thrilling, it's humorous, and follows brothers Sam and Dean Winchester as they hunt demons and other supernatural beings.

It blends horror, drama, and humor and explores their family's dark legacy.

With 15 seasons, it's a long but rewarding watch.

Plus, it's in American English.

The second drama is Emily in Paris.

It's a romantic comedy about Emily Cooper, a young American marketing executive who moves to Paris.

The keywords here are life, fashion, and comedy with a touch of French culture.

It's a fun, light-hearted show that also offers insights into fashion and lifestyle.

I'm learning French too, so the mix of English and French culture is a big draw for me.

The last one is Fleabag, a British TV show I watched a couple of years ago.

It's a dark comedy with sharp humor created by and starring Phoebe Waterbridge.

It follows the chaotic life of a witty, grief-stricken woman navigating relationships and personal struggles in London.

This show is known for breaking the fourth wall, so it's fun to see the character interact with us, the audience.

It's full of raw, relatable human experiences and down-to-earth expressions.

So, there are tons of great TV shows out there, but the key is to choose what you enjoy.

Watch them over and over again and you will always learn something new.

Remember, those who say they learned English from TV shows didn't just watch, they engaged with and internalized the content.

TV shows can be a fantastic source of idiomatic expressions and cultural knowledge, but active engagement is key.
