DeleteThe Tudors
ReplyDeleteRay Donovan if you missed it the first time around.
ReplyDeletePretty Little Liars. I'm on a bender with that one now.
ReplyDeleteBut I also keep hearing great stuff about The Wire. I may binge on that after PLL.
DeleteYes! Do watch The Wire. You might need subtitles sometimes and it is violent but so very, very good. Watch the Goats movie when this series gets too intense.
DeleteExcellent advice Cocoa! I think we should have a viewing party for Goats! Let's make this a sleeper hit!
DeleteI'm in. Goats for weekend viewing. Popcorn and alcohol optional. If I can find that epic film on Netflix...
DeleteBreaking Bad & The Walking Dead. The Mindy Project. Felicity.

ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad
ReplyDeleteBates Motel
The French (subtitles) show The Returned. Airs on showtime but think it must be available through amazon, hulu or netflix. Love this show!
ReplyDelete+1 @ Simon. I was just coming in here to say that. Loved it too. I heard that season 2 is or has been filmed. Can't wait.
DeleteSame here! Love this series!
Delete+1!
DeleteEx-Wives of Rock repeats...or is that just me that loves that show? ;)
ReplyDelete90210
ReplyDeleteThe original one, though
Delete@VIP more like 9021-no! Amirite? Just kidding. So pumped for the new season.

ReplyDeleteSix Feet Under
ReplyDeleteRaising Hope
Does anyone marathon a show that's not finished? I did Grey's Anatomy and now I have to wait for new episodes and I'm bored.
Never ye mind, I can see from the answers (Orphan Black, Vampire Diaries) that some do! :) I'm impatient, I know.
DeleteFrom what I've seen of Raising Hope, it is extremely funny!
DeleteOrphan Black or Vampire Diaries (Its so freakin stupid and my guilty pleasure of dumb drama!) You will never believe how many deaths one can withstand!!
ReplyDeleteThe Golden Girls
ReplyDeleteFriends, Gilmore Girls, Will and Grace, SATC.
ReplyDeleteLove these shows. I could watch SATC on repeat forever. It never, ever gets old to me.
DeleteThe Originals
ReplyDeleteI just binged watched The Tudors. I feel as if I've been hanged and had my head severed several times..
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm going to binge watch House of Cards again. Spacey!!!
Once Upon A Time (but not the awful Wonderland version)
ReplyDeleteSupernatural
Raising Hope

ReplyDelete@Ray, as long as you skip that horrible final season. What a mess that was.
DeleteI refuse to acknowledge that mistake.

ReplyDeleteRupaul's Drag Race.
ReplyDeleteHannibal.
ReplyDeleteSherlock
ReplyDeleteCommunity - Don't skip the DVD extras.
ReplyDeleteportlandia
ReplyDeleteThe Wire - recently finished that one. Too real scenery in and around Baltimore. Societal decay story. Timeless.
ReplyDeleteSix Feet Under - psycho drama/comedy. Something like psychopath hooks up with malignant narcissist who has a bi-polar brother. More comedy than actual human destruction.
Watching Breaking Bad now. Heisenberg!!!!! First 2 seasons were great comedy. More drama to season 3. Comedy ensues towards the end of season 4, thank goodness.
I'm only watching finished series. Sopranos, Weeds, Carnivale, Dexter, Nip/Tuck. Comeback
Did nobody suggest Game of Thrones?? I suggest Enlightened and The Comeback too.
ReplyDeleteHouse of Cards
ReplyDeleteScandal
Nip/Tuck
Drop Dead Diva
Gone With The Wind (at 6+ hours, it's a binge)
Dexter
Dr Who (the reboot)
Dr Who (the originals)
Already mentioned above by @flirtychick74, but, any Investigation Discovery show. Disappeared, the one about the evil couples... I have spent many an afternoon letting one episode roll into the next on Netflix. The intro with that whispery "Investigate..." gives me the shudders just to think about!
ReplyDeleteThanks, y'all for the other suggestions.
I love some Discovery ID! An episode of Sins and Secrets, "A Hunting In Boone", was about a murder that happened in the college town I was living in. I can also lose hours and hours thinking "just one more"....

ReplyDeleteOrphan Black
The Americans

Breaking Bad
How I Met Your Mother
I am in the midst of an Arrested Development binge right now. I highly recommend it. Others I have binged on with great success: Dr Who, Game of Thrones, The Mentalist, House of Lies, Scandal, Green Wing, Firefly, Graceland. To name a few.
ReplyDeleteTake it from a binge pro: watch something that has ended. Otherwise you'll eventually catch up with the TV, and having to wait an entire week for the next episode is true torture when you've just watched three seasons in a row.
Green Wing is some DANG FUNNY STUFF. When I grow up I ASPIRE to be Sue White...also noteworthy, and all British...Life on Mars, Shameless (the UK version), Wire in the Blood, Black Books, Spaced, Hyperdrive...
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteTop of the Lake, Vikings, Breaking Bad of course, if you're the only one who didn't see it.
ReplyDeleteShameless is the new Six Feet Under.
ReplyDelete30 Rock.
Nip/Tuck because Kelly Carlson!!
Or go 90's and get the Sports Night or Spin City DVD's. Just skip the awful, unwatchable Charlie Sheen seasons. They DO NOT EXIST in my universe!!
Scandal
ReplyDeleteDownton Abby
The Originals
Drop a Dead Diva
Once Upon A Time
Revenge
Parenthood (although if you're not watching regularly it probably isn't for you)

*Drop Dead Diva*. What I wrote sounds like a totally different show.

ReplyDeleteAlot of the suggestions seem to be for serious drama so ill put
ReplyDeleteParks and Recreation
Commnunity
Misfits
Even if you watched these already, just so many jokes and good comedy
great to work too as well
+1 on Luther. The acting is superb. Also, the original House of Cards.
ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad
ReplyDeleteVeep and Vikings. Vikings is crushing it - Its like one hour long History channel battle sequences but with much higher drama and Veep is just plain out f'n hilarious.
ReplyDeleteBLACKADDER!!!!
ReplyDeleteGuilty of My So Called Life
ReplyDeleteI just started Boardwalk Empire that show is freaking awesome, but I know you have already watched that.
ReplyDeleteMy cousin said Rome is good.
Game of Thrones
Fargo-Billy Bob Thornton is great!
The Bridge was good
Masters of Sex is excellent(Allison Janney)
Scandal is amazing
Southern Charm surprisingly good (reality)

ReplyDeleteGAME OF THRONES
Trailer park boys!!!!
ReplyDeleteDownton Abbey (It's better when binged. You pick up more plot-point nuances.)
ReplyDeleteNorthern Exposure--My go-to when I'm feeling blue.
@sugar
ReplyDelete+1
six feet under is also a good binger...
ReplyDeleteSons of Anarchy and Shameless
ReplyDeletePretty Little Liars or The Inbetweeners
ReplyDeletelately I've been watching The Family Fued w/ Steve Harvey.
ReplyDeleteI second, or third, Mad Men.
ReplyDeleteRecently I've enjoyed binging on
ReplyDeleteFrasier
Chrisleys
Sex in the City
Four Weddings
Rich Kids Beverly Hills
Flipping Out
I need to do THE SOPRANOS- I've never seen it before. Lol. Only saw 2 Breaking Bads. Argh- I have work to do. The Sons of Ana
I thought Chrisley Knows Best would be awful, but I was utterly charmed by Todd!
DeleteRiiiigghhhttt???
DeleteNight Court- watch the subtle nuances of growth Dan Fielding does as the series progresses and also watch as Markie Post goes from cute to "Oh my God I want to hit that so bad" (Maybe that was because I started puberty during the later seasons)
ReplyDelete@rowdy
DeleteLol...loved night court...

ReplyDeleteChrisley Knows Best
ReplyDeleteFucking hilarious!
I'll once again recommend Spin City if for no other reason than to see what Jennifer Garner, Stephen Colbert, Alyssa Milano, Connie Britton and Justin Theroux looked like 16 years ago.
ReplyDeleteBob's Burgers!! Can't believe no one mentioned it. It's beyond hilarious!
ReplyDeleteBreaking bad. The Americans isn't bad either, but no show has quality of breaking bad. Kind of ruins every other show now.
ReplyDeleteBest show ever.
DeleteIt's Always Sunny In Philadelphia is good. I just started watching it recently, and it's really funny. Especially the episodes with Danny DeVito in them.
ReplyDeletePuberty Blues....this was a famous Aussie movie set in 1970's Sydney remade into a fantastic, high quality TV show. The first season stays true to the book and the second is a continuation of what might have been. It's a great snap shot of life then with a teen storyline alongside adult ines. It's styled brilliantly, the costumes and sets are spot in for that 1979-1981 feel. Much binge drinking and bong smoking too, lol
ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad is made for binge watching. The Sopranos and The Wire, of course. Game of Thrones. The Americans is a great show, but only in the second season, so if you did binge, it would be over quickly.
ReplyDeleteGuilty pleasure: Dallas (the original series).
One to avoid: Mad Men. I can handle one episode at a time, max.
Green Wing - It's British, only 2 seasons, one of the funniest weird shows, evah! It's on Netflix.
ReplyDeleteVikings
Rome and Deadwood are always a good bet.
Blacks Books if you can find it.
Waiting for God is one of my favorites.
Orange is the new black. Watched it all last night
ReplyDeleteThe Killing! Although, be warned: the second season drags significantly more than the first. Oh, or GOT of course although I pretty much assume-incorrectly-that everyone has already seen it at this point :)
ReplyDelete+1
ReplyDeleteLoved The Killing! Looking forward to the last season on Netflix.
ReplyDeleteGame of Thrones
ReplyDeleteThe Walking Dead
The Office-BBC version
The Returned
Breaking Bad
Six Feet Under
Boardwalk Empire
Downton Abbey
True Blood ( first few seasons)
Orange is the New Black
And I want to start House of Cards, The Wire and Battlestar Galactica
Shows I loved to binge watch:
ReplyDeleteSex and The City
LOST
The Bridge
Homeland
Dexter
Breaking Bad
The Walking Dead
Freaks and Geeks
Arrested Development
True Blood (Seasons 1-2)
Strangers With Candy
Moonlighting (So good if you've never seen it I highly recommend it)
Freaks and Geeks, Breaking Bad, Prison Break, 24, It's Alway Sunny in Philadelphia, The League
ReplyDeleteRescue Me - Denis Leary series about NYC firefighters post-9/11. How can you not love a series that has a black, gay, horse whispering little person and Jesus driving a yellow Lamborghini with a bumper sticker that says "Now you know what I drive".
ReplyDeleteAgree w/The Vikings suggestion - second season finale aired last night - this series has turned into one of my favs - they really killed it.
Here's something to drool over - Travis Fimmel (Ragnar Lothbrook) when he was a Calvin Klein model:
http://www.google.com/images?q=travis+fimmel+calvin+klein&hl=en&gbv=2&sa=X&oi=image_result_group&ei=CERkU9D_MMzyoATngYLgBQ&ved=0CBsQsAQ
I LOVED Rescue Me, but didn't watch the last 3 episodes for 2 years because I didn't want it to be over, and because I was given an incorrect spoiler. I know I'll watch the whole thing again at some point.
DeleteMan, how could I have forgotten 24, probably my favorite show of all time. Can't wait for Monday!
ReplyDeleteHouse of Cards. the Wire. You won't have time to watch anything else for awhile. If you are ambitious watch the BBC house of cards from about 30 years ago. The KILLING from AMC. under promoted, lost and found by network and netflix. but wonderfully acted.
ReplyDeleteI've been binging on Dexter, but am stuck in season 7 waiting for my viewing buddy to catch up. I'm also binging hard on Deadliest Catch. A little hotness and testosterone on the Bering Sea, yum!
ReplyDeleteNext will be Breaking Bad and the Sopranos. I'd forgotten about Six Feet Under, so now I'll have an excuse to spend more time with Michael C Hall
Does anyone else have Amazon Prime? I found out that there are some almost-forgotten gems stashed out there. "Hey, Paula" anyone? They aren't free, but a season costs about $15.
Lots of BBC. Torchwood. State of Play (much better developed characters than the movie), Above Suspicion (Ciaran Hinds and Kelly Reilly), Whitechapel (wonderful Rupert Penry Jones), Ashes to Ashes. I also binge on Tales of the ER (where else would you hear about a bullet embolus?!).

THE BLACK LIST!!!
ReplyDeleteRipper Street, with Matthew Macfayden and Jerome Flynn. If you haven't, lucky dog, you can watch season one and season two. Wish I could start it all over again. Excellent. So well written. Some of it hard to watch for me, but watch I do. Just finished Season Two. Luther, on Netflix. Vikings on the History Channel, season one and two. Watch Jekyll on Netflix. A little scary, but SOOOOOO good. I am next going to catch up with Turn on AMC. That should keep you going for a while. I think I may be an inadvertent Irish Anglophile. Such good writing and acting. But anyway, start with Ripper Street. Please let us know what you decided to watch and how you liked it. Just interested.
ReplyDeleteLittle Dorritt
ReplyDeleteThe Misfits
Psych!!! I've been trying to get you to watch it for years! :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, or Life. Really great show, and your BFF Donal Logue is in the second season.
ReplyDeleteIf you liked The Sopranos, try Lilyhammer on Netflix. Stars Steven van Zandt as a mobster {same hairpiece as Sopranos} in witness protection in Lillyhamer, Norway. First two seasons are 7 or 8 episodes each.
ReplyDeletePeaky Blinders.
ReplyDeleteKenny Vs. Spenny
Since virtually every one has already seen Breaking Bad, I´d go for the awesomeness that is Justified.
ReplyDeleteAnd I´d top it all with some Flight of the Conchords and I´m Alan Partridge.
Happy binge watching anyway:)!
Haven't read all the comments (since I'm late to the party). This is what I binge watch:
ReplyDelete1. SOA
2. The Killing (if you can handle weather/lighting worthy of Sylvia Plath)
3. Just started on Justified. Liked the 1st episode.
Also try Hell on Wheels. It's a good show. I drool for Common.
Also late to the party, but scrolling down I didn't see:
