According to the Oxford Dictionary, binge-watching is when you watch multiple episodes of a tv series in rapid succession, typically by means of DVDs or digital streaming. Now, as both a college student and a homebody, binge-watching is something I do quite regularly and find a lot of comfort in doing. In order for binge-watching to be successful, though, you need a tv show that hooks you from the beginning and keeps your attention the whole way through. I completely understand that sometimes finding that perfect show can be difficult, so I am going to share some of the best shows I have found to binge watch.
1) Dawson's Creek
This show is for any teenager or young adult out there. It covers so many different topics by following 4-6 main characters from high school to adulthood. The characters all have different personalities so it is easy for so many different people to relate to it in one way or another.
2) White Collar
First of all, Matt Bomer is one of the main characters in this show. Need I say more? But anyways, if you want a crime show that is not so gory and more about "high end" crime then this is the show for you. There is even some romance and humor in there.
3) How I Met Your Mother
This show is one of my absolute favorite shows and I do not think I will ever not want to watch it. It has drama, sadness, and humor. Full of so many useful lessons and hilarious one-liners, you will often find yourself quoting and referencing it. What could make a show any better?
4) Grey's Anatomy
If there is one show I honestly do not know if I could live without it, this would be it. I guarantee after the first episode you will be hooked. Just be prepared because this show will break your heart numerous times, but do not fret because you'll just keep coming back.
5) One Tree Hill
I have watched this series 3 times and will probably watch it at least another 3 times and still smile and cry in the exact same places every single time. It is a relatable show that is full of all sorts of life lessons.
