Top Ten Binge Worthy TV Shows

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. This week's topic is Top Ten Binge Worthy TV Shows.

1. Dawson's Creek - The original binge worthy show. Seasons 1 and 2 were good, but oh how I love Seasons 3 and 4.
2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer - I never watched Buffy when it was on, but Husband and I actually did binge watch it after we got married. We'd watch so many episodes in a day sometimes. Occasionally we'd spend an entire Saturday just watching one after the other.
3. Gilmore Girls - Man, I think I've binged this entire series like 5 or 6 times. Once you start it you're hooked until the end of Season 7.
4. One Tree Hill - This show isn't without faults, but I still enjoyed it enough to list it.
5. Grey's Anatomy - Even though I mostly tried to focus on shows that are over, Grey's has enough prior seasons for you to binge. And believe me, you will. Especially the earlier ones.
6. Heartland - This is actually a Canadian show. My mom got me started on it, and I didn't think I'd love a show that my mom also loved, but I really do.
7. When Calls the Heart - Another one I wasn't sure I'd enjoy. But I adore Elizabeth and Jack and I think the actors/actresses make this show.
8. Felicity - This one is short, and the last season got a bit weird, but overall I enjoyed the process.
9. Downton Abbey - Absolutely love this one. We binged the first two seasons and then were caught up to watch weekly.
10. Smallville - I think some people might doubt this one a little. I hated Lois at first. I was a Lana fan even knowing that Clark and Lois eventually end up together. But I absolutely LOVED the way the writers worked the Clark and Lois relationship.

I had such a hard time narrowing down my list to ten shows. Which TV shows do you recommend to binge watch? Let me know!

Ten Fall TV Shows I'm Ready to Watch

Top 10 Tuesday is a post hosted by The Broke and the Bookish and this week's topic is Top Ten Fall TV Shows.

Honestly you guys, I really like TV, but I'm not one of those people who needs the TV on ALL THE TIME. That person is my husband. If he's home, the TV is on. That's not to say he's just sitting there all the time, but the TV will be on at least. And he knows about all the new shows premiering and usually wants to sample several. I'm usually trying NOT to add shows to my list of things I don't want to miss because I feel like we already have too many shows. But these are the ones I'm excited about returning for the fall and a new one.

1. The Walking Dead - The # 1 show that I cannot miss...ever.

2. Talking Dead - Because of how much it enriches TWD.

3. The Voice - This is a show that I can read while watching, but I'm interested to see what kind of judges Alicia Keys and Miley Cyrus make.

4. Chicago Med - I finally branched into the Chicago franchise with this one. It's filling my ER gap but totally not as good.

5. Chicago PD - Since starting Chicago Med, I decided to give PD and Fire a try. Fire didn't match well with me as I didn't feel connected to any of the characters on a personal level, but PD was the complete opposite. And I think I might be looking forward to this one more than Med.

6. Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life - HELLO! YES PLEASE! November can't get here fast enough, and I know that I'm going to blow through these episodes too quickly.

7. Nashville - I don't think this one is coming back until January but normally it is a fall show. I only just started Nashville on Hulu earlier this year and Season 4 ended in a cliffhanger so I need to know what's going to happen.

8. Game of Thrones - Okay I'm totally cheating here especially because the next season won't air until Summer 2017 but I'm already counting it down.

9. Heartland - OK so this is a Canadian show. Only the first 6 seasons are on Netflix. My mom has seasons 7 & 8 on DVD. But I need season 9, and Season 10 will be airing in Canada in October.

10. This is Us - The only really new show I'm thinking of adding to my watch list this year. I'll check out the first couple of episodes and see what I think.

Which TV shows are you dying to return this fall? Let me know!
