Sweet Magnolias hit Netflix back in 2020 and tells the story of three childhood best friends—Maddie (JoAnna Garcia Swisher), Helen (Heather Headley) and Dana Sue (Brooke Elliott)—who never left their hometown of Serenity, South Carolina. In an attempt to forget about Maddie’s unsettling divorce (looking at you, Jamie Lynn Spears), the trio team up to turn an old beloved landmark into a wellness center slash spa.While the show has an ideal mix of feel-good vibes and mystery, we already binge-watched both seasons (multiple times).
