It may just now be hitting you, but we are already getting into the final few weeks of fall semester. A few weeks until Thanksgiving, and after that the count down until dreaded finals begins. It's a very busy time here on campus. Need something to watch between papers and projects, but can't devote too much time to a show? Here are the perfect shows to binge when you don't have time to get involved. Perk: they may also inspire you.
The Office
If only the real working world was like that of Dunder Mifflin. Distract yourself with office hijinks and only dream of having as much fun at work as (most of) these people do. It's all about loving what you do.
Parks and Recreation
You will never meet anyone as passionate or inspiring as Leslie Knope. Watch an episode of Parks and Rec to laugh away the stress and push you to get that next paper done. As Leslie says, "There's nothing we can't do if we work hard, never sleep, and shirk all other responsibilities in our lives!"
Friends
Friends feels like that fantasy life we all picture after college--and I mean fantasy. How does Monica afford that apartment? So step away from the textbooks and imagine you're one of the friends. Laugh, cry, and just enjoy life.
New Girl
Yet another ideal group of friends living the ideal adult life (again, how can they afford that loft?!). New Girl will show you that it's okay to stress out and feel lost--you'll find your way eventually. It's all a part of life.
How I Met Your Mother
Ted never gave up on his pursuit for love, just like you'll never give up on getting that A. The gang was always there for one another, no matter what. Maybe just watching the ups and downs of their lives can make you feel a tiny bit better about your own.
