The 5 Most “Bingeable” Shows on Netflix

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Colby chapter.

Tests, papers, group projects, research… we all need a break and a little bit of R&R from time to time. Here at Colby, our go-to is the Netflix and chill. One episode turns into two, and two into three, and soon enough, it’s pitch black out and you’ve missed dinner. Enter the era of bingewatching! Here are 5 shows that are super binge-worthy, in our opinion:

1. Grey’s Anatomy: Not only can you to stare deep into Jackson Avery’s eyes, you can also tell your parents that you’re seriously considering the premed track now.

2. Gossip Girl: In the mood to get completely lost in the manipulative and scheming lives of Manhattan’s elite? Gossip Girl never fails to take you out of Waterville and drop you right into the depths of NYC.

3. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia: Want to laugh mindlessly at four people who own a bar? Also, watching “It’s Always Sunny” makes you super bro-y.

4.  Friday Night Lights: The ultimate show. I honestly have no words to describe my love for the Panthers/Lions/Dillon/East Dillon. This is possibly the greatest show on Netflix and/or the world. Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can’t Lose.

5. Parks and Recreation: A perfect show to watch over a breakfast of bacon and waffles. Disclaimer: I watched an episode in the reading room and was audibly laughing….if you don’t enjoy getting death stares, quiet areas are definitely not the place to watch.
