Remember when we thought November was rough! Back then, I wrote a list of 100 films that impacted my life and since life seems to have thrown the whole world a curveball, I figure it’s a good time to write a list of the 90 television shows worth binging and 10 shows I can’t believe I still have NOT binged.
When times are uncertain, it’s nice to distract yourself and get lost in a good show. As Coach Taylor said, “you listen to me, you listen to me closer than you’ve ever listened to me before… you’ve got heart, charisma… it’s time to give it the best you’ve got!
Agree to disagree – the best are bolded.
