Edit: Our 2020 list of Netflix drinking games can be found here!
Another year another slew of Netflix originals and classic television programs to make some drinking rules for. This year we tried to include as many games as possible from different styles of shows. Comedies, Cartoons, Dramas, Horror, whatever!
So grab a drink and dive in to our list of the 10 best Netflix drinking games in 2019.
Russian Doll
Russian Doll is a show that messes with time and endless loops. So you will see a lot of the same scene play out in slightly different ways. Making for some perfect recurring drinking rules!
Drink once whenever
- Anyone lights up a cigarette
- Someone takes a shot or does drugs
- Anyone makes a phone call
- Someone finishes someone else’s sentence for them
- A wedding ring box is shown
Drink 3 times whenever
- Someone dies and their day gets restarted
- Oatmeal is spotted
- Someone gets totally hammered
- Someone brings up a new theory to explain what’s happening
Disenchantment
This is Matt Groening’s new show about a girl who’d rather drink and run her life into the ground then become the next queen like her father wants. With the amount of drunken tomfoolery that happens in this show it pairs great with a few drinks.
Take sip whenever…
- Anyone in the show takes a sip of booze
- Elfo is being naive about something
- Someone dies. (If it’s a ton of people dying at once just drink until the bloodbath stops)
- Anyone smacks or hits Luci
- Elfo introduces himself to someone
- Bean complains about her life
- Luci says “Do it!”
- There’s a scene of people looking into the green flame
- Queen Oona does something oddly reptilian
- Luci tries to sleep with someone
You
You is more of a psychological thriller and not something you’d expect to make for a great drinking game. But you’d be wrong. All the skin crawling creepiness in this show makes is a great reason to have a few drinks and calm your nerves.
Take a sip of your drink whenever…
- Anyone says the namesake of the show “You”.
- Someone receives a text

Finish your drink whenever…

Bojack Horseman
This instant cult-classic is hyper depressing. It’s like watching someone hit rock bottom and then just watching them crawl around at that level for the rest of his life. Between the dry humor and constant partying this is a great show.
Drink once whenever…
- Someone says something depressing (bottoms up!)
- Todd says something profoundly stupid
- Vincent Adultman does something that totally makes him an adult and not two kids stacked on top of each other.
- Diane mentions something about social justice or some type of cause she’s rallying for
- There’s a clip from a TV show within the show.
- Drink again if that sitcom is Horsin’ Around
Finish your drink whenever you see Bojack as a kid
The Office
If there’s ever been a show that’s worth a million re-watches it’s The Office. So if you’re planning to run through this series for the 14th time why not grab a few drinks along the way?
