Winter just might be my favorite season. It's perfectly acceptable to get in comfy PJs, wrap yourself in a blanket, park yourself on a couch and binge watch television all night long. This is what I live for.
That being said, the part I hate most about this comfy binging process is actually picking the show to binge. There's way too many choices when you start considering all the options on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon...the list goes on. That's why I always have a list of go to shows I can binge all day long.
Here are my top six guilty pleasure TV shows:
1. Bridezillas
This amazing show was sadly pulled after 10 seasons but can still be found online. The show followed soon to be brides and their rather dramatic journey to the altar. I love the show for the ridiculous outbursts the brides have over the most insignificant things -- it's a silly and entertaining hour of television.
2. Jersey Shore
Who didn't love this show in high school? Jersey Shore is the pinnacle of reality television and it's still held up after all these years. The show follows eight young men and woman as they stay in Seaside, NJ for a whole summer where they party, work, and of course GTL. There are still some great one liners (thanks to Pauly D) and it's alway fun to watch them fight.
3. Catfish
I am an avid Catfish lover. The show follows people who are involved in online relationships and they write into the show to see if the people they're involved with are who they say they are. The hosts, Nev and Max, do some detective work and usually make the couple meet to answer that question. I really enjoy watching these relationships unfold and hearing the ridiculous backstory behind them.
4. True Life
Another MTV gem! True Life is a reality show that highlights a different topic every episode. So, one episode can be "True Life: I'm Obsessed with My Ex" and they'll follow the stories of two people obsessed with their ex. They have followed every topic under the sun, from very silly to extremely serious. It's one of the more enlightening shows on the list.
5. My Strange Addiction
I watch this purely for the "oh my god, I can't believe this is actually real this is gross why am I watching this" factor. This show follows individuals with rather unusual addictions. The addictions can be as silly as being in a relationship with inflatable pool toys, or as serious as drinking nail polish. Either way, I can promise you you're going to be throughly entertained.
6. Four Weddings
This show follows four brides and the weddings they have planned. Each bride attends each other's wedding and scores it, at the end of the show whoever's wedding scores the highest wins a honeymoon trip. I watch this for two reasons: I like seeing the extravagant weddings these people plan for no apparent reason and it's always a little fun to see these woman get catty af with each other.
