With a long holiday weekend upon us, we will definitely be having a few movie nights here! We may have a full day of movies on Saturday as a family! We'll also be watching some of the Netflix exclusive TV shows (no kids for these) like House of Cards and Grace and Frankie. Grace and FrankieisNetflix's new funny and fearless original comedy featuring Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Martin Sheen and Sam Waterston. It is a perfect example of how today’s families can shift, rearrange and blend in unexpected ways. When Grace and Frankie’s husbands leave them after 20 years of marriage—to be with each other—the women find themselves facing a change that they never expected, but they shift their perspective to get through it together with the support of their new blended family and, of course, a sense of humor. What I've seen of this show so far is pretty funny!
Here are a few shows you can watch over the weekend about families:

What will you be watching this weekend?
We will be watching Netflix all weekend long. There are a few movies on there that we want to watch.
My husband watches Netflix, but I’ve never even learned how to watch it. I need to get a grip and get with the times. Great weekend movie choices!
I could get behind a Memorial Day marathon! That’s a great idea!
I have three kids and Netflix. So a Memorial Day marathon sounds pretty sweet to me. The kids would love it.
We are big Netflix fans and somebody’s almost got it streaming on some device if we’re home! lol I think I’d like Grace and Frankie and plan to try to catch an espisode this weekend!
Netflix really does have a great selection of shows. I wouldn’t mind spending my weekend watching quality shows with my family.
I have no doubt Netflix will be a part of my Memorial Day weekend! It’s a part of my every day!
I’m so happy that Bill Nye the Science Guy is on Netflix now lol! I will be doing yard work this weekend but will totally make time for some Netflix marathoning. ^_^
With as much Netflix that my husband and I watch, I should be on the #Streamteam. I seriously have discovered 4 new shows that I love just by watching Netflix (Scandal!!).
I’ll be checking out Netflix on the weekend for sure. I need to check out Grace and Frankie. It could be a good one!
I love Netflix with a passion! I am always on it at night before bed to watch something to help me get to sleep fast, it always helps.
We are so set and ready for the summer rainy days with Netflix! Everything is in our stream waiting for us
Our long weekend was last weekend but I will be watching Netflix all weekend this! I’m taking the weekend off and hanging out and going to be watching some good family movies!
I have been hearing lots about Grace and Frankie, Netflix is my favorite go to so I shall be cosying up and watching great films.
Although I’ve been a Netflix member since it’s inception I’ve noticed that I don’t watch it as much as I used to. Will have to check out Grace and Frankie though.
Our family loves our Netflix. They offer such a great selection for adults and kids!
We will definitely be watching Netflix this weekend! We pretty much watch it every weekend!
Love Netflix! I have been hearing a lot of buzz about this show!
My girls are obsessed with that mermaid series. They watch it all the time and we have even watched a few episodes together. We love netflix.
My youngest watched The Tigger Movie this morning. I might have to watch Gracie and Frankie. We love Netflix in our house.
I just saw someone elses’ Netfix Recs too!! My daughter watched Tarzan and Jane this week and I couldn’t believe we didn’t already have it! Love Netflix for that reason!
Gracie and Frankie is making a buzz online and I am getting interested with the series. I would love how they perceive modern families and how society will accept it. I think I have to watch that too.
We love watching on Netflix during weekends. Happy Memorial Day!
Great selection! My son loves the Tigger Movie.
This is a great show suggestion. We will be watching Netflix this weekend as it is very cold outside
Netflix is heaven sent and movie nights with family is love! Thank you for the suggestions. I just hope that I have time soon to have my marathons.
We are a huge Netflix fan at home. I cannot wait to watch this show as it sounds so entertaining .
I will be watching Orange Is The New Black. I have to catch up before the new season begins next month!
I’d like to see the Tomlin/Fonda show. That one’s going to have to be great with two powerhouses like that in it, right? 🙂
Grace and Frankie looks so good – I can’t watch to start watching it! It has a great cast, so I’m sure I will enjoy it.
Kiddo and I have watched a few of things. I am on my 3rd round of the Gilmore Girls. I just love that show. Right now I am watching One Tree Hill. I didn’t watch any of it when it was on. Too busy watching other things and now that it is on Netflix I can watch and see what all the fuss was about.
We love Netflix binge watching and are excited for season 3 of Orange is the New Black!
I would love to watch that show that stars Jane Fonda, but we don’t have Netflix, we have cable. We are going to be watching movies this weekend though. The husband had recorded a lot. 🙂
Seriously, was there life before Netflix? And I love Lily Tomlin!
How’d you know that this is what our plans were for Memorial day? 🙂 Every Saturday we go for our 5-6km run, have supper, then relax with a movie in the evening on netflix 🙂
I miss having netflix. I had to give it up when I got busy with stuff. I use it mainly to catch up with my fave movies.
My mother-in-law and I were just talking about the new show with Lillie Tomlin last night! I’m so glad you blogged about it! Now I can added to my list! And the other movies and programs for kids is so helpful to families, great job!
I love netfix! NO commercials and oodles of movies and shows for my kids to watch, a mother’s best friend in my opinion!
It really sounds like Netflix has a lot of different shows to offer. I haven’t gotten it yet but it should like a good idea!
Netflix has a great selection of shows and movies. I love to binge watch my shows. I am watching Dexter right now.
I love my Netflix. I have been watching The Tomorrow People a lot lately. There are so many great titles to choose from.

Gilmore girls has my heart. By far one of the best.
We love watching old school shows on Netflix. I think we will probably watch something today as we laze around the house

I just binge watched Grace and Frankie. It is such a cute show. I hope there is a season two.
I love spending time with the family on holidays and what better way to spend Memorial day with the family than watching Netflix. I am going to have to check out Grace and Frankie on Netflix for sure. Thanks for sharing.
We love Netflix at out house. Luckily my brother brought it with him when he moved in. It has been fabulous to discover old shows, and moves and new Netflix series.
