Some of the things I enjoy most in life include finding a good television series to watch on Netflix while I avoid doing any adult-like responsibilities that I should be doing. Luckily, Netflix helps fuel this addiction by adding some binge-worthy series that just can't keep me away. For anyone who is like me and reality TV is secretly your guilty pleasure, these five shows are ready to be added to your list. So, grab your popcorn and your favorite comfy clothes so you can watch these titles before they end up on the "leaving Netflix this month" list.


1. Sing It On

Pitch Perfect meets the real world in this 2015 TV series. Follow multiple collegiate accapella groups from across the country on their journey to the final competition in New York City. Filled with great music, drama, and an emotional and unexpected curve ball, this show is 10/10 acca-awesome. This binge-worthy show only has one season available at the moment, but it is still worth the watch.

2. Border Control

With seasons in three countries (America, Australia, and Canada), follow the life of the border control officers who have seen it all. Smuggling drugs, attempting to bring in forbidden foods (like raw meat) and illegal workers, the show is filled with plenty of tears and hilarious moments. You also get a sneak peak of these countries mailrooms as they check packages and large shipments. Plus, there are lots of puppies. What's not to like? Choose from Canada and Australia, that both have two seasons available to watch or America, who has one.

3. The Great British Bake Off


Ready, set, bake! Hosted by UK cheesy pun duo Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins, bakers attempt three challenges per episode to bake their way to the top. Judges Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood judge the bakers cakes, cookies, breads and more - along with other desserts you probably didn't know existed. The best part is that all the weeks of intense competition are worth a bouquet of flowers and a cake stand trophy. By the end of your three season binge, you will be ready to try a thing or two yourself.

4. Undercover Boss

Undercover Boss takes you behind the scenes of some of the worlds leading companies by living the life of a low-level employee through the eyes of a boss. From resorts to fast food joints to service companies, CEOs and presidents learn how their companies are running from the ground up, with some hidden surprises for the employees they meet along the way. Five seasons of undercover action are waiting, start binging now.

5. Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends

This 1999 hit shows you the adventures Louis embarks on to explore the subcultures of America, and it is intriguing. Although there are only currently 5 episodes available to stream on Netflix, you will get to see a wide variety of individuals from Demolition Derby drivers to Off-Broadway wannabes. With each episode lasting about 50 minutes, it's an easy binge to avoid having a productive Saturday.

Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
