Top-Tier Shows to Binge this Summer

By Gabby Merten

Remaining productive constantly is tiring— especially when you’re in one location all day long. Coming up with new things to do can be draining, and it may eventually lead to burnout. So, instead of attempting to be a functional human being today, sit back and run through this list of great shows to watch and be a vegetable on the living room sofa. You probably won’t be eating any vegetables, though, because who eats healthy snacks during a marathon?

Shows:

1. Grimm: This first one is underrated and an absolute favorite of mine. In this series, the writers put an interesting twist on the Brothers Grimm fairy tales. I highly recommend checking it out! 

2. Angel: If you loved Joss Whedon’s late 90’s series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, you’re sure to love its companion Angel. It’s based on the slayer’s former love interest who sets up shop in Los Angeles. 

3. Supernatural: Two brothers fight every monster in the book— and then some. During a near-fruitless search for their missing dad, the pair makes some not-so-natural discoveries about their family.

4. Lucifer: Despite what the title may suggest, this show focuses on redemption, new friendship and healing… though it does take more than just a little time, considering it all started in the Beginning.

5. Doctor Who: Regardless of whether you’ve seen it before or not, Doctor Who is an awesome show to rewatch for hours at a time. From shape-shifting aliens to humans turned into robots, this series is bound to have you hooked from the start.
