Romance is one of those genres that never gets old. Despite the predictable stories and cheesy lines that only look good on television or big screen, there is something about romantic films and series that gives one a sense of comfort. A romance that ends in a tragedy will help you have an emotional detox as your cry your heart out. A feel-good romance that ends with a happily ever after, on the other hand, will infuse you with positivity and prep you for the coming week.

While romance is a popular genre in films, the digital medium is not far behind and has upped its game over the past few years to give us sagas stretching over hours, that satiate our appetite for romance.
