I really need to watch more TV shows! In the past, I didn’t watch TV that much, but when I went to uni and lived alone, being able to watch whatever I want meant I started watching more TV. This list is a mixture of shows I loved and shows that were strangely addictive even though they were fairly average.
Top 10 Tuesday was originally created by The Broke and the Bookish, but as of January has now moved to That Artsy Reader Girl. If you’re interested in taking part click here.
Once Upon a Time – This show peaked in the middle, with series 3 my favourite, but still very bingeworthy.
13 Reasons Why – This is the most addictive show on this list. There were things I didn’t like about the show, lots of things I did. Somehow it just pulled me in and I had to watch the next episode.
Arrow – The first season I found a bit slow and repetitive, but season 2 was a big improvement and I binged that. Still need to watch the rest of the seasons, hopefully it carries on being good.
Downton Abbey – I didn’t watch this when it was originally aired in the UK, but got the box set a couple of years ago when I realised I really did have a soft spot for period dramas. I didn’t take me long to get through all the seasons.
Reign – The topic was which are bingeworthy, not what the best shows are. I sure binged this show, even though it really was awful at times. Season 2 was particularly cringeworthy, from what I remember.
The Expanse – The second series of this in particular was really addictive, but I haven’t yet had an opportunity to watch series three. I was really disappointed when it was cancelled so am very much relieved it was picked up and it looks like there will be a season four.
The Musketeers – What’s not to like? All three series of this show are brilliant and I was sad when it came to an end. At least it makes great re-watching material!
Frequency – It became a bit repetitive, but I still kept wanting to come back and see the mystery solved. Every episode seemed to end with a massive cliff-hanger.
Jessica Jones – This applies to the first series more than the second, which although I liked, didn’t have the same intensity and drive as the first series. David Tennant made a brilliant villain in season one and is part of what made it such a bingeworthy programme.
Poldark – Do I need to say anything? As much as the relationships are a big part of this show, I also like how it explores rural Cornwall life and the disparity between rich and poor.
What TV shows did you find bingeworthy? Recommend me some shows in the comments!
