My name is Tara and I am a TV addict...
Yep, there it is...
If I am at home with a computer on my lap, (which I am most days) I am also binge watching entire seasons of shows on Netflix, Hulu or Xfinity. Of course, this is only possible because both of my kids are now in school and I find myself with a solid 6 hour block of time in which to get my Tiptoe work done...and to work my way through the last 10 years of TV!
Now, I know this is definitely not a good thing but here's the thing...I feel no shame. So what if I feel like checking in on Don Draper to see if he's drinking himself stupid in his office (the 50's/60's sure were crazy, am I right?!) And when I am feeling a little nuts and out of sorts, well at least I am not as nuts as good old Dexter Morgan, right? The bright side and all...
So, TV lovers and fellow binge watchers, I have put together a top 10 list of my favorite, binge-worthy series. You will probably see right away that I tend toward the dark and twisty! Enjoy!
10. Mad Men
9. 6 Feet Under
8. True Blood
7. Sons of Anarchy
6. Breaking Bad
5. Dexter
4. Supernatural
3. Prison Break
2. Weeds
1. The Walking Dead (duh) This is the one and only show that I believe is worthy of watching on live TV, commercials and all!
Of course this list just scratched the surface. A few other faves are Scandal, 24, The X-Files, The Sopranos.... So, if you are a fellow TV junkie and need some guidance in what to watch next, just ask! And I am always looking for my next series, so suggestions are always welcome! I am currently on the last season of House of Cards and may start on Entourage next unless anyone has any better ideas...!
XOXO, TV Girl (free session fee to the first one of you who gets that TV series reference!)
PS. And yes, I am bingeing right now...

Is the signature reference to the HBO series "Girls"?

Welcome to the club, Tara. I'm a TV junkie too! Not to add to your list, but Castle is a really good show too...especially after season 1.

Try Salem on Netflix. Pretty good.
