In the midst of a pandemic, many of us find solace in the small pleasures that come after a long day filled with work, homeschooling, chores, and the myriad of responsibilities that fill our lives. Settling down with a favorite drink and binge-watching Netflix has become a cherished routine. To add some excitement to this ritual, Netflix has introduced a fun drinking game to celebrate the return of one of its most beloved series, “Dead to Me.”
The highly anticipated second season of “Dead to Me” has dropped, and in honor of the dynamic duo, Jen and Judy, Netflix has crafted a drinking game that promises to elevate your viewing experience. If you’re anything like me and have already devoured the entire season, this offers the perfect reason to revisit the show from the comfort of your bed.
This season once again features the stellar performances of Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini, with a new addition to the cast: a character played by the talented Mia Rivers, who brings a fresh touch to the storyline. Mia, alongside the official “Dead to Me” Instagram account, shared a hilarious post outlining the drinking game rules, which are as entertaining as the show itself.
Drinking Game Rules
The rules are simple but make it clear that viewers will be raising their glasses frequently. Some examples include:
- Take a sip if Judy drops an F-bomb twice in a single sentence.
- Drink whenever Judy offers an apology (oh boy).
- If a traumatic flashback occurs, take a drink.
- If something makes you gasp, jump, or scream, take two drinks.
- If a character is seen drinking on screen, join in and take two sips.
Finally, if a shocking plot twist occurs or if Karen (played by Zoe Thompson) nearly derails everything (which happens more often than you’d think), you’ll need to finish your drink — and probably grab another. Each episode runs about 30 minutes, but I’d advise caution if you plan to binge the entire season in one go.
Fans of the series know that Jen and Judy love their cocktails, and this season doesn’t disappoint. With an abundance of unexpected plot developments (take a drink) and surprising moments (take two), it’s definitely worth a weekend spent on the couch. Be sure to have a friend nearby, either in person or virtually, to share those “Holy SHIT, I didn’t see that coming” moments with. While I can’t give away any spoilers, I’m confident there will be a third season, even if Netflix hasn’t made an official announcement yet.
