Binging with Charles

Quality TV viewing needs some quality chocolate to go with it

I got a very clever newsletter from Charles Chocolates today titled: “Sofa So Good: Binge-Watching Bites Edition.”

Inside it recommended specific bars from their Ultimate Chocolate Bar Collection to enjoy while binge-watching some popular TV series. It explained:

“This carefully selected ensemble of 7 premium chocolate bars is not just a treat; it’s a gourmet journey designed to complement your series marathon.”

The first pairing they recommended was their Tres Cojones (Triple Nut) bar with “This Is Us.” Their reasoning for this couple:

“Our Tres Cojones Bar, with its blend of almonds, hazelnuts, and pine nuts enrobed in bittersweet chocolate, is as multifaceted and heartwarming as “This Is Us”. Each nut contributes its unique texture and flavor, creating a family of ingredients that’s as compelling and cohesive as the Pearsons’. It’s a bar that celebrates life’s highs and lows, perfect for savoring during those tear-jerking moments.”

Other shows they have recommendations for include “Big Little Lies,” “The Crown,” “The Handmaid’s Tale,” “Mad Men,” “Gilmore Girls,” and “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.”

Read the whole list of rec’s in the newsletter here.

I probably won’t be following these suggestions but it’s only because I don’t watch much American TV anymore. I need suggestions for K-dramas — as Cacaopod jokes our TV only speaks Korean.

What have you got for me to enjoy with shows like Knight FlowerGhost Doctor, or Psychopath Diary, Charles?
