The 5 Best Shows To Binge Watch On Netflix
tookapic

At this point in my life, I've watched everything there is to watch on Netflix. Everything from Netflix Originals to Foreign Films. Some shows are worth it, but others are just there to pass the time. In order to weed out the worthless shows that distract from Netflix greats, here are my favorite, binge-worthy shows on Netflix.

1. "Big Mouth"

I know this show only has one series, so it is not really a binge, but it is definitely a refreshing humor - humor that can only be found in shows like "Family Guy" and "American Dad". If you're a fan of raunchy humor like me, then you will love this series from the first episode.

2. "Grey's Anatomy"

Everyone already knows the hype that surrounds "Grey's Anatomy", but I was late to the show. I only started watching "Grey's Anatomy" two years ago, but I quickly binge-watched the 13 seasons that were on Netflix. The medical themes, as well as the dynamic personalities and friendships quickly made the series one of my favorites, and it it's still going on! If you haven't yet, I definitely suggest you join the Grey's party.

3. "Dexter"

I just recently started watching "Dexter" two days ago, and I'm already on season 3. Basically, I watched one season a day. The psychological thriller cop drama-comedy (there are so many adjectives to describe this show) hooked me. As a psych major, I love getting an inside look in the mind of a psychopath, a serial killer nonetheless. Watching Dexter grow and discover who he is, and who he wants to be. This show is truly a masterpiece. Plus, it's based on a book series I'm definitely going to have to read now.

4. "Parenthood"

Similar to Grey's, the family dynamics of this show hooked me. The series is reminiscent of "Gilmore Girls", and I'm sure you'll recall a familiar face from the series. I just enjoyed watching the lives of the Braverman clan change and shift as they face the obstacles life has to bring.

5. "Shameless"

Again, I couldn't help but fall in love with all the characters on "Shameless". I find the series to be very honest, and comedic. As the series unfolds, you really start to understand why each character is the way they are, and it's very saddening, but watching them overcome their pitfalls, and do there best to be better than their parents. The Gallaghers are another one of my truly shameless addictions.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
