It's impossible to not get caught up in the awesomeness of having an entire season of a show to binge-watch, which is the best thing ever for cold afternoons, long weekends, or really any night of the week. But once you start, it's basically impossible to stop — and reaching the end of a series is seriously dramatic, leaving you feeling majorly distraught. You find yourself feverishly checking when the next season will be available while desperately trying to find another show to fill the empty void. It's a crazy cycle, but one that's oh so good. Check out the shows we couldn't help but binge-watch in 2014.
With the new movie that came out in 2014, binge-watching the original Veronica Mars is a must. Relive all the sneakiness and fun while reminiscing over your own high school days.
The second season of Orange Is the New Black premiered earlier this year, and it's a show you have to watch from the beginning. Sit back and prepare to hibernate.
Although the series ended in 2009, this is a great show to binge-watch now that it's streaming. Battlestar Galactica has something for everyone — evil plots, romance, epic battles (of course), and outer space.
OK, admit it. You totally watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer when it originally aired, which makes it so fun to binge-watch right now. The hair, the clothes, the vampire slaying! Love it.
OK, if you have survived this long in life without watching Breaking Bad, do it now. There are five jaw-dropping seasons, so you might want to pop some popcorn and pick up a six-pack.
Once you start watching Californication, it kind of becomes a dirty little secret. David Duchovny kills it as a woman-hungry mess-up — it's impossible not to get caught up in his delinquencies.
Another show you need to watch if you haven't been swept up in the buzz, Game of Thrones is beyond addicting. There's really nothing else to say. Just watch it.
Shameless has no boundaries. At all. But once you start watching this completely dysfunctional family in action, you have to see what happens next. And it just gets crazier and crazier.
Check out Jamie Dornan in a role that's totally creepy (yet he's still hot) in The Fall. This show is mesmerizing and seriously so good. And the end will leave you breathless.
If you haven't checked out Top of the Lake, it's a dizzying crime drama that twists and turns so much, you just can't believe how things turn out at the end. There's only one season in the miniseries, so you can totally binge-watch in a day.
We saw the end of Dexter in 2013, leaving a legacy of nine seasons that are now streaming in all their bloody glory. Although you know he's a bad guy, it's pretty hard not to like Dexter.
