It's that time of year when your friends and family start asking you what you are going to do this summer. Your response usually includes mumbling off things such as family vacations, a few concerts or weddings. However, all you really want to say is, "I'm super excited to lay in my bed and binge watch Netflix."

With this being said, you run into an issue: you've already seen all the talked about television shows. You've already seen "Breaking Bad," "Grey's Anatomy," "Walking Dead" and "Gossip Girl" (You've watched all of these while you should have been studying for finals). So, what now?

Good thing I'm crazy good at binge watching Netflix shows. I did the hard part for you. I put together a list of my favorite underrated shows (or what I like to call "hidden gems"). All of these, I believe, are must-watches.

1. 'Bomb Girls'

"Bomb Girls" is a period drama set during World War II. It is based around the change in roles females underwent as they began to work in factories creating bombs for the war effort. It features romance, action, and more importantly women's empowerment. I loved this show, guys. It was a quick watch and made me wish, like usual, that I was born in a different decade.

2. 'The 100'

"The 100" is about a group of juvenile teens who are sent, from space, back down to Earth to test the level of survival due to a previous nuclear Armageddon that once made Earth unlivable. These group of teens face betrayal, death, and the challenge of survival. The writers even threw some romance in there. I found myself all wrapped up in the romance aspects, meanwhile these kids are trying to stay alive.

"Are you going to die? Wait, kiss first!"

3. 'Girl Meets World'

This past spring break, I re-watched the entire series of "Boy Meets World" on YouTube. No. 3 is a shout-out to that. "Girl Meets World" is for all of us 90s kids. Yes, it's on Disney Channel -- still watch it. It will remind you of the glory days.

4. 'Cupcake Wars'

I've never been big into food shows, but "Cupcake Wars" is way too fun to watch. A group of contestants have a bake-off. They go through a bunch of different challenges to try and win. There are even special guest stars like Jennette McCurdy (she was my girl on "iCarly"). A show about cupcakes was shooting my anxiety through the roof.

"Oh my goodness, who is going to win? I can't look!"

5. 'Z Nation'

"Z Nation" made the list for all you "Walking Dead" fans. I don't know about all of you, but I have a weird obsession with zombies. I find myself thinking about them, and asking myself what I will do when a zombie apocalypse hits us. I'm a huge "Walking Dead" fan, but I needed/wanted more zombies in my life. This show is worth the watch (plus there's a lot of seasons to keep you entertained). It also features a little different twist. Watch it!

6. 'Chelsea Does'

This is a super quick watch. As of now there are only four episodes on Netflix. It is absolutely hilarious. I usually do not laugh at television shows, but I was crying and laughing along in my bed at this one. "Chelsea Does" is a documentary-style show featuring different subjects each episode. If you want a quick, hilarious watch, binge watch this one night.

That's a wrap y'all.

I'm not proud to admit that I could add to this list, however, these are definitely my top favorites. They will keep you busy for the summer, right? OK, maybe just keep you busy the first month.
