Binge watching TV is something we all do. With Netflix and Hulu available at our beck and call, with just a click of a button. We binge when we are sad, happy, bored or just so hooked you can't stop watching. These are 6 shows that I can binge watch over and over and never get sick of. I never feel shameful when Netflix asks me "Are you still there?" and I click "Next episode."
1. Shameless
This is my newest show obsession and it is AMAZING. Based off of the British original, a dysfunctional family in the South Side of Chicago with an alcoholic father and money problems. There is a whole bunch of drama (who doesn't love drama?). I binged all 6 seasons of this show in less than a month and I continue to watch it over and over until the new seasons starts in October. I also love a lot of the characters and they all real unique and have good story lines.

2. Workaholics
This show is usually my go to show to put on if I just want something funny and uplifting to watch. Bumper from Pitch Perfect and his 2 BFFs pretty much write it and act in it and it's literally HILARIOUS. There are some episodes I watch over and over again because I can't just watch them once. My sides hurt sometimes from laughing so much at this show. These dudes are always doing dumb stuff that make you wonder how they make it in life. They work as telemarketers and they drink all day and mess around. I love it.

3. It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia
This is another one of my favorites to just put on when I need a good laugh or if I need something to perk me up after a long day. The 5 main characters get into shenanigans on a daily basis and they just make a mess of things. You wonder how they make any money because Paddy's Pub has 1 customer and you wonder how they are still alive because some of the stuff they do but you just laugh at their stupidity because it makes you feel a little better about your bad day. Plus it's setting is Philly and I appreciate a little Pennsylvania recognition every now and then (even though I am from Pittsburgh).

4. Young and Hungry
When i first saw the previews for this show, I didn't give it a second look because I didn't think it would be that good but one day I was bored and had binged everything else and didn't know what to watch so I put it on and it's actually so freaking funny. I liked Emily Osment when she was in Hannah Montana (yes, I loved Hannah Montanta, don't judge). She is super funny and she's portraying being a poor 23 year old living in San Francisco trying to get her dream job while paying rent and living life (so I can sorta relate to it in a way minus the fact that I can't cook, I don't live in Cali and my life isn't as drama filled). I watch this all the time when I never know what to watch.

Ah, the god of my TV binge watching. Grey;s Anatomy is my favorite show in the world. I didn't start watching it until summer of 2014 and I watched all 10 seasons in 2 months. It was a true commitment. This show makes me an emotional wreck of a human being every single time I watch it. There is not turning back once I start re watching the series. Christina Yang is my spirit animal. I will forever love Alex Karev. I will ALWAYS sob when Denny dies and the plane crashes. McDreamy and McSteamy *swoon*. ALL the emotions EVERY TIME there is no stopping it.
6. American Horror Story: Asylum
I usually every season of American Horror Story and there are some seasons I like, don't like and love. AHS Asylum is by far my favorite season and if I ever want to re-watch a season, it's that one. Asylums are super creepy to start with and they did a really good job with the story line (and I love me some Evan Peters). If i am ever in the mood for something creepy and unsettling, this is usually my go to. I also binge this whenever I am eagerly awaiting the new season and need something to preoccupy myself.

So there you have it, my top 6 shows I binge watch at the moment. I always have a good one for laughs, tears, drama and creepiness. Never ashamed to press "next episode" at 3AM for these shows.
