5 Shows to watch on Valentine’s weekend
1. Pride and Prejudice (1995)

“My good opinion once lost, is lost forever”
When Jane Austen penned Pride and Prejudice in the 19th century, she probably never imagined it would become a beloved classic. The 1995 limited series adaptation is arguably the best version, and I’m sure many would agree.
Colin Firth embodies Mr. Darcy to perfection (despite his real-life aunt’s misgivings as heard in the Graham Norton show), while Jennifer Ehle’s Elizabeth Bennet is both believable and relatable. The supporting cast does a fantastic job bringing the novel to life—Lady Catherine de Bourgh, for instance, is so convincingly meddlesome that you’ll love to hate her.
If you’re a true romance fan and haven’t seen this adaptation yet, I give you full permission to stop reading this article and rectify that mistake immediately!
2. A Julia Roberts Movie Marathon

“If I forget to tell you later, I had a really good time tonight”


Pray, Eat and Love
3. The Bridget Jones Franchise
I am Bridget Jones. I own it. You are Bridget Jones. We all are Bridget Jones. This unapologetically vulnerable heroine invites us into her beautifully chaotic world, making this franchise an all-time favourite:

“I like you very much … just like you are.”
Bridget Jones’s Baby (2016) –Introducing Patrick Dempsey, where you’ll laugh along with Bridget as her free-spirited nature leads to an unexpected pregnancy and heartwarming moments.

4. Emily in Paris

“Not choosing is still a choice.”
Paris. Need I say more?
This Netflix serie is a dazzling mix of haute couture, old-money elegance, and really, really good-looking men (including a charming chef).
Emily, a marketing executive from Chicago, arrives in the City of Love for what was supposed to be a short-term project—only to realize that Paris is meant to be savored, not rushed. Her fairy-tale-like journey through Europe is nothing short of delightful.
5. Business Proposal (2022)

A contract.
Clearly defined terms.
Mutual benefits.
But did they account for love?
In this quirky and utterly addictive K-drama, a CEO and his employee enter a fake dating contract—but things don’t go as planned when real feelings start to develop. Business Proposal is an over-the-top romantic comedy that will have you laughing, swooning, and completely hooked.Tempting huh?
