There's not much that can compare to coming home on a Friday night after a long week of work and curling up on the couch to watch some Netflix. Whether you're watching the latest season of Orange is the New Black or catching up on an old show like Friends that you still love, you can't think of a more perfect and more relaxing activity. While you could definitely binge watch before Netflix (you could tape a bunch of shows on your PVR or buy some DVDs), it's safe to say that Netflix made binge watching a popular, beloved and mainstream thing.

While you maybe 100 percent confident that you're pretty knowledgeable when it comes to the original programming that Netflix has produced, is that really the truth? Do you know everything that there is to know about the sitcoms, dramas and non-fiction content that the streaming service has been steadily putting out for the past few years? It's time to find out! And then you can brag to your best friends that you're an expert in Netflix, which is all that you have ever wanted to be, of course.

Go ahead and take this quiz to find out how well you know Netflix shows!

Question 1

Orange is the New Black was the first original TV show that Netflix produced.

In the past few years, Netflix has been getting into the original programming game, instead of simply putting television shows and movies onto the service that are available for streaming. Do you know the show that was the very first one that Netflix originally produced? It's a pretty important question, right? Would you say that it's Orange is the New Black, the prison drama that you absolutely love, and that everyone that you know from your friends to relatives to coworkers loves too?

Question 2

The fifth season of House of Cards is premiering on May 30th, 2017.

A new season of House of Cards has been available on Netflix annually for the past few years, and it's always an exciting day when the new season is here. The political drama is all about how far a group of people will go to achieve the power that they have always wanted. It's equal parts fascinating and fun to watch. So when does the new season premiere? Do you agree that the fifth season will start streaming on May 30th, 2017?

Question 3

Kevin Costner stars as Frank Underwood on House of Cards.

House of Cards focuses on the lives of two political players, married couple Frank and Claire Underwood. While they definitely have an unconventional relationship that sometimes veers on the disturbing, you still enjoy watching them. You never know what they're going to do or say next and that's a pretty fascinating thing. This couple makes this show the very definition of binge watching and you can't imagine the show without them. Do you know who plays Frank Underwood? Do you think that it is Kevin Costner?

Question 4

House of Cards is based on a U.K. show of the same name.

There have been several shows over the years that have originated in the U.K. and have then had American versions. Some of those include the sitcom The Office, the mysterious drama Broadchurch, and reality shows such as Who Do You Think You Are? and What Not To Wear and The X Factor. Do you think that House of Cards is based on a U.K. show of the same name, or do you think that it's only an American, Netflix produced show?

Question 5

Season one of House of Cards started streaming in 2010.

There have been several seasons of the Netflix drama... and you have enjoyed each and every one of them, of course. You're not the only one and that's an understatement. If you go onto your social media accounts when the new season starts streaming, everyone that you know will say that they're super excited to start watching the new episodes. So what year did the show start streaming on the popular service? Did it start streaming back in 2010 or in another year?

Question 6

Orange is the New Black is based on a memoir of the same name.

Sometimes TV shows and movies are based on memoirs, and that really just goes to show that the saying "truth is stranger than fiction" can be true. It's always interesting to think about what was changed and what has stayed the same when a book is adapted into a television series. Do you think that Orange is the New Black is based on a memoir of the same name, or do you think that it's only a television show on Netflix?

Question 7

The fifth season of House of Cards was leaked online recently.

When a TV show is super popular, sometimes the cast and crew have to work really hard to keep things under wraps. They tell the actors to not say a single word about the storylines in an upcoming season and they don't give the actors the scripts until the very last second. Sometimes, spoilers get released online, but other times, the very show gets leaked. Do you think that the fifth season of House of Cards was leaked online recently?

Question 8

In February 2016, Netflix renewed Orange is the New Black for three entire seasons... at once.

Every year in the winter and spring, you eagerly await the news that your favorite shows will be renewed. You can't even think about a TV show that you love being cancelled. It's a pretty sad day when that happens. Sometimes, you get lucky and your fave show is recognized so much that several seasons are renewed at once. Do you think that has ever happened at Netflix? Did Netflix renew Orange is the New Black for three entire seasons at once?

Question 9

Aziz Ansari has a Netflix show called Love.

Aziz Ansari is one of several comedians who have created, written, and starred in a television show loosely based on their life. And his show happens to be on Netflix.

Do you think that Aziz Ansari has a Netflix show called Love, or is it called something else?

Question 10

The second season of Master of None features the main character, Dev, in Rome.

The second season of Master of None has recently begun streaming on Netflix, and critics and fans alike have agreed that the new episodes are definitely worth watching. The first season focused on Dev's professional and dating life in New York City, but the first episodes of season two are set in another location, and that would be Italy. People are loving the change of scenery. So what city does Dev live in when he's in Italy? Is it Rome?

Question 11

There is an episode of Master of None that takes a humorous look at Tinder.

It's no secret that most people are meeting on dating apps these days, and it's no longer a weird or rare thing. You have probably gone at least a few online dates and you definitely have some friends who have met their partners this way. It's always awesome when a sitcom will feature something that is super relevant to the culture, and these days, not much is more relevant than the fact that more and more people are dating via apps these days. Is there an episode on Master of None that takes a humorous look at Tinder?

Question 12

Aziz Ansari's very own parents play his parents on Master of None.

One of the most beloved and famous episodes of Master of None is called "Parents." This first season episode features Dev learning about his parents' background and how tough it was for them when they first moved to the U.S. He realizes that his parents have sacrificed a lot in order for him to live the American dream, and he realizes that he should appreciate them a lot more. So who plays his parents? Is it true that Aziz Ansari's very own mom and dad play the parts?

Question 13

Aziz Ansari and his brother co-wrote an episode of Master of None called "Religion."

Aziz Ansari has been praised for his Netflix show Master of None since he not only has created a funny show, but every single one of the episodes has something intelligent to say.

Question 15

The second season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is now streaming.

It's safe to say that Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is a seriously popular Netflix show. The sitcom revolves around Kimmy, who is both innocent and unique. She has been living with a cult forever and has had no knowledge of the actual world around her... until the pilot, when she is recused. Now she's living in none other than New York City and trying to learn about everything that she has missed. What season of this show is now streaming on Netflix? Is it the second season?

Question 16

There was a short-lived horror show on Netflix called Hemlock Haven.

Not every show on Netflix ends up lasting for several seasons. Sometimes that's okay with you because you can't love everything and other times, you're pretty bummed that you can't watch your favorite new show forever. While horror is not the most popular genre when it comes to Netflix shows -- there are definitely more dramas and comedies on the streaming service in terms of original programming -- That said, Netflix streamed a short-lived show called Hemlock Haven, true or false?

Question 17

The Crown is based on both a movie and a play.

The Crown is a historical drama that started streaming on Netflix on November 4th, 2016.

Is The Crown based on not only a movie but also a play?

Question 18

The Crown is NOT a popular Netflix show.

You know that Downton Abbey was an incredibly popular historical drama, so do you think that The Crown is as well?

If you're one of those fans, then you agree that it's a show that is the definition of unforgettable. So what genre is this show? Is The OA a comedy?

Question 22

Bloodline is a drama about a family who own a hotel in the Florida Keys.

The first season of the Netflix produced drama Bloodline started streaming in 2015. The second season premiered last year and the third and final season will stream in the spring of 2017. This show is super dramatic (and that's an understatement). You might be pretty sad that it's ending if you're a fan. So what is this Netflix show actually about? Does this drama follow a family who own a hotel in the Florida Keys? Or is this show about something entirely different?

Question 23

There are no pop culture references on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

When you're a pop culture fan, there's really nothing better than when you sit down to watch a show and there are tons of pop culture references. This is one reason why shows like Riverdale and Gilmore Girls have been so popular. It's really fun to see what references you understand and which ones you have to look up. Sometimes you even discover new musicians or movies that you never would have known about. Is it true or false that there are no pop culture references on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt?

Is it true or false that Love has been renewed for a season three by Netflix?

Question 27

The main characters in Love are named Mickey and Gus.

Question 34

The Olsen twins are in Fuller House.

Chances are, you grew up loving Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and you never missed one of their movies or specials.

Some fans of the actress thought it was pretty fun and even kind of adorable in its own way... but some critics didn't love the show at all.
