The Easter long weekend is upon us and whilst we could use this opportunity to spend valuable time with friends and family, we've all got to admit that we will probably end up in a Netflix rabbit hole. 

So the experts have stepped in to advise the best use of your precious long weekend Netflix binge, with their top picks.

With upwards of 10,000 Netflix-watching hours under their belts, you can trust in Fletch, Vaughan and Megan's recommendations. 

So here we have the top 10 Netflix shows/movies/docos to kill time watching this weekend.

Note: In no particular order, because the three of them couldn't agree.

Jessica Jones (TV series)

This Netflix original chronicles the life of one of the darker Marvel characters, the mysterious Jessica Jones. Jessica settles in New York City and opens her own detective agency, called Alias Investigations, which seems to be called into cases involving people who have special abilities. Based on a graphic novel intended for adults, this is not a superhero story for the kids.

Annihilation (Movie)

When her husband vanishes during a secret mission, biologist Lena joins an expedition into a mysterious region sealed off by the U.S. government.

Queer Eye (TV Series)

Gay men give advice on fashion, grooming, interior design, food, wine and culture to straight men. Warning: this one is a tear-jerker. Even for no-emotions-Fletch.

The Defiant Ones (Docu-series)
