The Best Binge-Worthy Shows To Revist Right Now

Suddenly got a lot of free time? Half of Humanity is in the same boat. Here are my picks for the best binge-worthy shows to revisit to pass the time and keep your sanity!

1. The X-Files

Via imdb.com

The ULTIMATE binge! This is only for the truly dedicated binger. The escapades of Mulder and Scully into the realm of the bizarre, strange and alien has captivated audiences for 27 years and that's one hell of a mean feat. Settle in, it's gonna be a long ride.

2. Millennium

Via imdb.com

Chris Carter's Millenium was an incredible show canceled too soon. Forget aliens it's all about serial killers, cults, secret societies, good and evil, the unnatural, demons, prophecies and revelations. It's a great weekend binge and is only made up of three seasons. But I warn you, once you start it's hard to stop!

3. Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Old faithful. You just can't go wrong with Buffy and it's great for zoning out and let's not forget the fashion and hairstyles, wow. But who can't resist the love/hate on-again/off-again Buffy and Angel story arc. I'm still pissed about the ending of the entire season but the rest of the seasons make up for it. I mean Angel needed a spin-off right?

4. Angel

Of course, speaking of Angel and spin-offs, the Angel spin-off is actually an entertaining binge with some cameos from old Buffy characters. The creature features are great in this show and worth a revisit just for the David Boreanaz eye ogling but also for the insane storylines that eventually evolve and lead one to believe the writers went on an LSD binge for a little while writing storylines for Cordelia later in the series.

5. Parks and Recreation

Via imdb.com

The Holy Grail of binges! Nothing about this show can bring you down. No matter how horrible life is or your day was this show is the CURE. Laugh out loud moments from start to finish and characters you can't help but fall in love with (maybe except Ann Perkins 😂). It features some of the best comedic talent around and is the perfect remedy for any down day or relentless boredom. So, treat yo self!

6. Six Feet Under

Via imdb.com

This was one of the first real shows that got that cinematic tv series genre down pat. The characters, the storylines, the cinematography are all beautifully seamless. If you need an excuse to get the feels and have a good cry and distract yourself from the current world crisis then this is the show for you. Let it out babe, let it out.

7. The Office (US)

Via imdb.com

The Office. I mean what's not to love. Another show that flawlessly spins the best real-life comedic take on office work life. Relatable, hilarious and maybe just what we need to remind us of the shenanigans of office working while most of us are working from home alone. Join the gang and relive those office moments you don't miss and some you do!

8. House M.D.

Via imdb.com

His anti-social nature, sarcasm, brutal honesty and lack of bedside manner are exactly what we love about Dr. House. Not to mention his cute bromance with Dr.Wilson (the gorgeous Robert Sean Leonard from Dead Poet's Society). The show is always full of dramatic climaxes, power plays and weird as hell health issues to keep you captivated for hours on end.

9. Law & Order SVU

Via imdb.com

Law & Order SVU is almost universally the fan-favorite binge. Olivia Benson is a serious badass and there is something addictive and morbidly fascinating about heinous sexually-based offenses that you just can't stop watching. I feel like the multitude of years of SVU binging has prepared me for the day I need to whoop-ass on some perp. Always drama, investable characters and ICE-T. It doesn't get better than that.

10. Curb Your Enthuasiasm

Via imdb.com

This show has me in stitches constantly. Curb takes you on a an everyday story full of Larry David's faux pas, social misunderstandings, lack of pc etiquette, awkward situations, constant annoyances and his constant hatred and irate behavior towards almost everything in everyday life. The result is a hilarious gut-busting laugh fest for 28mins an episode. I feel like Larry is my inner voice and every season just gets better and better.

11. My So-Called Life

Via imdb.com

Oh, to be a teenager in the '90s again. This cult classic is filled with so many relatable moments and nostalgia that reel you right in. Following the teen angst of Angela and her friends and of course her unrelenting crush on Jordan Catalano (who we all pretty much crushed too). Drugs, sex, homosexuality, melancholy, alcoholsim.. it tackled all the issues before many shows had attempted to in such a candid and real relatable way for teens. It's a short binge with only 2 seasons but a worthwhile one.

12. Party of Five (original)

Via imdb.com

Party of Five is where you go to cry and cry for hours on end. This show sucks you into a vacuum and everything hurts. So many feels. Great for a rainy day in alone. Also, a nice nostalgic throwback to young starlets Neve Campbell and Jennifer Love Hewitt.
