We’ve been trapped in our houses for almost a year now with nothing but time on our hands. Throughout quarantine, some people sparked their inner creativity and have taken up knitting, baking and writing. But let’s be honest, most of us have spent all our time watching every possible show we can to forget about the inevitable gloom this pandemic has brought.

The State Hornet has curated a list of the most binge-worthy TV shows and separated them into a March Madness-style bracket based on the different services they stream on. “Binge-worthy” is the key term here, while some newer shows made the cut, we tried to focus on ones that are considered truly classic and have plenty of seasons to entertain you for a long period of time. As a way to reward the most bingeable shows that have truly stood the test of time, we made sure that shows with less than three seasons were seeded lower in the bracket. 

Below is our list of the most binge-worthy shows to watch, how you can follow along and where to vote for your favorites.
