Last week I wrote about some movies you had to catch so far this summer. That got me thinking about TV and my addiction to it. As you might have read a couple of weeks ago, I have some binge-watching habits. With that in mind, I compiled a list of six shows that are binge-watching worthy. In fact, all of these six shows were watched so far this summer. So without further ado, here is a list of six TV shows that I completely recommend:
1. "Game of Thrones"
I actually started watching "Game of Thrones" the summer going into my senior year. At the time, there were only four seasons. I remember I finished all four in a matter of days. The story was so intricate yet interesting. This past season is no different; the show seems to be getting better and better every year. The writing is amazing, and the acting is spectacular. The show does not compromise its storytelling, leading to some scenes being a little bit controversial.
2. "The 100"
I actually watched "The 100" at the beginning of this summer. I must say that it starts off as this cheesy, teen TV series. However, it quickly overcomes that and finds a dark, apocalyptic tone—which leads to some suspenseful and action-packed scenes. I recommend if only because I think it raises some interesting questions of what might be like surviving in a dystopian society.
3. "Pretty Little Liars"
PLL is perhaps one of my favorite TV shows. Now, it can be both very predictable and unpredictable at times, which is a little frustrating. It’s not the best writing, but nonetheless it’s still really fun trying to figure out who A is. PLL’s last season just started a couple of weeks ago. It’s off to a great start, so I would catch up to tie all the loose ends.
4. "Bob’s Burgers"
"Bob’s Burgers" is one of the funniest and most entertaining shows on this list. All of the characters are lovable and unique. It was so much fun watching this show. I’m thinking of re-watching it just to catch of the laugh-out-loud moment again, not to mention all of the Easter eggs in the beginning sequence.
5. "Quantico"
"Quantico" is a slightly more grown-up version of "Pretty Little Liars," where the stakes are extremely high. It keeps you guessing and wondering who is the one responsible for all of the catastrophes on the TV show. Also, I like the inside look into the FBI Academy process; it looks very tough and interesting.
6. "The Fosters"
I recently started watching "The Fosters." It’s a different kind of drama as compared to other shows on this list. So far, I love it. It’s very progressive and enlightening. I definitely plan to continue watching the show.
