For most people now the summer has begun and whilst people are starting to go away I'm still patiently waiting in my room until August begins and all my holidays come around. During this free time it's almost become a personal goal for me to binge watch TV shows. I am definitely more of a series person than a movie person. There's more of it to watch and who doesn't love to be so emotionally attached to characters, after 100,000 hours of viewing, so that if they die you are seriously considering starting a national holiday to mourn their death?!

Anyway, my main years of serial watching has lead me to watch quite a few shows and I thought I would share my opinion and picks with you of what I think you should binge watch this summer holiday:

1. Teen Wolf 


    I have just started watching this just under a week ago and I'm on Season 4 now (some serious serial watching, I'm not even ashamed) and I frickin LOVE it! The show is about a social outcast called Scott McCall (Tyler Posey) who becomes a werewolf after he is bitten by one. The series follows him and his friends Stiles, Lydia, Allison and Derek (introducing other new characters as the seasons go on) as he faces the challenges and new powers that come along with him being a werewolf. This is such an addictive show because although it still has the serious and dark side shows about the supernatural does, it's well balanced by constant comedy and humor from the character, especially Stile's sarcasm. (P.S this show has so much character development its's unreal.)


2. Breaking Bad 


My all time favourite show. EVER. I love it so much. A chemistry teacher gets diagnosed with cancer so starts making meth with the help of one of his old pupils after he finds out how much money can be made from it. I'm still trying to convince all my friends to watch it as admittedly the first few episodes and some of season 2 is hard to get through but it's so worth it in the end. Again another show with character development which sends your emotions towards characters all over the place. If you don't love the character of Jesse Pinkman then you are crazy.


3.Game of Thrones


A very long programme but all of it is faultless. If you can get past the ridiculously complicated character names then you are in for a treat. If I was to give you a brief summary of this programme we could be hear for days so I'll condense it down A LOT... Nine families fight for control of the land Westeros (The houses are Stark, Lannister, Baratheon, Targaryen, Greyjoy, Tully, Arryn, Tyrell and Martell). This leads to a great war. In the north, a very ancient evil awakens. There is also a neglected military order, the Night's Watch, who are guarding the realms of men from icy horrors beyond The Wall. Even if you aren't into mythical stuff you are guaranteed to love this programme.

4. Parks and Recreation


Possibly the funniest programme ever created. Staring the even funnier Amy Poehler and the coolest men in the world Chris Pratt and Nick Offerman, this show is about the Parks and Recreation department in the fictional town of Pawnee, Indiana. This show is the most genius idea ever and if you don't find it funny we can't be friends, seriously, there is humour for EVERYONE in here. EVERYONE.


5. Orphan Black


This is a short but sweet show compared to the other ones I've suggested as it's just finished it's third season which I am still yet to watch. A woman names Sarah witnesses the suicide of a woman that looks exactly like her. She decideds to take on this woman's identity and try and live her life finding out more about herself and many others along the way. This wasn't at all what I expected when I first watched it but it's still brilliant and I need to hurry up and watch the third series.
