Ladies, sleep has basically left us. This will only continue as the babies are born and we are up weird hours feeding them. I thought it would be great to have a giant list of what everyone is watching! I need some suggestions myself. (I hope we haven't done this already).
Ahhh! I've been thinking of starting this thread for awhile.
My favorites of all time: Buffy, West Wing, The Office, GoT, Stranger Things, HIMYM, Arrested Development ...
Other greats Id recommend: supernatural, Vampire diaries & Originals, Veep, Tru Blood, Sopranos, iZombie, Parks & Rec, Weeds, Dawson's Creek, Archer, Gracie & Frankie, Catastrophe, Red Oaks, Always Sunny, 30 Rock
Things on my maternity leave to do list: The Wire, Santa Clarita Diet, a few movies & documentaries I've missed over the years, Gilmore Girls,
Netflix - finishing up Suits and The Office. Just started Making a Murderer and the new season of Grace and Frankie. Also happy they just added Forensic Files.
Amazon Prime - Grand Tour (It's the only reason we originally signed up for Prime. I'm not a car person at all, but LOVED Top Gear).
What I'm saving for mat leave: the current season of Grey's Anatomy, HTGAWM, Once Upon a Time, and Walking Dead. I also want to watch all of Bones and Scandal.
What's on regular rotation: Buffy, Gilmore Girls, Vampire Diaries, Futurama, Firefly, Battlestar Galactica, GoT, and Arrested Development. We also watch a lot of documentaries and TED Talks.
@NotAPlaya-JustCrushAlot is Supernatural still good? I bailed on that one after the season where the angels first showed up. I'm also trying to find The Originals - Netflix in Canada doesn't carry it for some reason.
I don't stream but I download and binge like no other! Currently watching: grey's anatomy, big brother Canada, survivor, blackish, American crime, parenthood (just started season 1)
Favorites to binge: Murphy brown, how I met your mother, Gilmore girls (just finished first time ever) Dexter, friends, army wives
i don't really have anything saved for mat leave specifically. I'll probably follow this thread but I know big brother US and masterchef Australia start while I'm on leave and those are definitely on my list!
TTC1: May 2015
Primary IF May 2016; Failed HSG; Scheduled Lap Sept. 2016
Well I'm apparently the latest victim of insomnia so I'll play. Netflix: Favorites: Scandal, Greys, Lost, HIMYM, The Office, Making a Murderer, Bloodline, House of Cards, Friday Night Lights, Stranger Things,The Ranch. Maternity Leave To Watch: Call the midwife, Grace and Frankie, The Crown.
Hulu: Last fall I watched all of the OC. Seinfeld. To watch: this seasons Scandal
Amazon Prime: Love: Sneaky Pete, Goliath. Mat leave list: The man in the high castle, Bosch, Z: The beginning of everything
HBO: Favorites: Game of thrones, True Blood, Silicon Valley, True Detective, The Newsroom, Band of Brothers. Mat leave list: The wire, ballers, re-watch GOT, Big Love
Other: Homeland, Dexter, Shameless on Showtime are amazing.
Netflix: I watch a TON of stand up specials and I also pick a show I "missed out on" and binge it from beginning to end. In the last few years I have done House of Cards, The West Wing, Gilmore Girls, Archer, Jane the Virgin, Mad men, 30 Rock, Master of None, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Parks and Rec (a second time), and probably a few others.
Amazon Prime: Grand Tour. I mostly just use this for kid stuff like Daniel Tiger and Sesame Street
HBO: We DVR Last Week Tonight and GoT (new season will be times up with my maternity leave!) but I don't stream or anything.
Shows I am meaning to get to: Atlanta, The Americans, The Wire
Overall I swing between dramas with tons of detestable characters or comedies. I avoid sci fi and sit coms.
Netflix: Gilmore Girls, Friends, How to Make a Murderer, Grey's Anatomy, Orange is the New Black
Hulu: Private Practice, Hulu also has the not most recent season of some reality shows (Real Housewives, Kardashians), Once Upon a Time, Scandal, How to get away with Murder, current season of Grey's, Unreal (so trashy but I love it)
Amazon Prime: I don't watch a lot on Amazon Prime, just movies
HBO: True Blood, Big Little Lies
I watch a lot of movies, as my husband doesn't like tv as much.
@CherryBananas There's still heavy angel involvement. DH often comment about how we miss the original one big bad per episode. I still like it though. I love the Winchesters.
Netflix: Grey's, Jessica Jones (love!), Daredevil (worth it just to watch Charlie Cox's body during fight scenes), Stranger Things, Arrested Development (all time fav), Master of None, Making a Murderer
Amazon Prime: Man in the High Castle, Downton Abbey, Orphan Black, Sons of Anarchy, mostly movies
HBO: Big Little Lies (good!), True Blood, True Detective, Game of Thrones, Westworld (LOVE! seriously, watch this one)
Other favs, not sure where they're located: 30 Rock, Parks and Rec, Dexter, Buffy, Friends, West Wing, and many more I can't remember right now
On my current to-watch list: Orange is the New Black, Mad Men, The Office (never watched it completely through), and now lots of ideas from here
My current DVR is a bunch of guilty pleasures that I should probably be embarrassed to admit I watch: Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Vanderpump Rules, Teen Mom. I swear I have a brain! Haha I also watch Greys Anatomy, This is Us, and Top Chef in their current seasons.
I need to finish Mad Men and I want to start House of Cards, How to Get Away with Murder, and maybe The Crown

Thank you for starting this! I need to get my list for H to acquire for me.
Here's what I have so far: - The OC (I've seen seasons 1-3 a bunch, but I want to watch again and finish the series) - Finish the last season (or maybe 2?) of Vampire Diaries (Netflix) -Finish Heart of Dixie (Netflix) -Finish the last 5 episodes of Gossip Girl (I think Netflix?) -Buffy? It sounds up my alley -Charmed? Also sounds up my alley
Things I love, but we binge watch regularly as we leave our TV on all night: 30 Rock (like, a million times), Parks & Rec, Seinfeld, HIMYM, Archer, Bob's Burgers, Friends, Arrested Development, The Office, Master of None, Mindy Project, New Girl, Happy Endings (this is a good one)...
Other favorites, but have not seen a million times: West World, GoT, Walking Dead, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Gilmore Girls, Veep, I don't know. My mind is now drawing a blank. We watch A LOT of TV.
@pshaortao Ahhh Parenthood was so good! I can't bring myself to watch the last season yet because I've heard it's so emotional... adding that my after baby binge list!

@nda_roxybabe Buffy is the best. The first season is super cheesy but important to set up some major storylines. If you can get past that you'll love it
Netflix: Broadchurch (especially if you like British shows), Young & Hungry, HIMYM, Chuck, Firefly and Serenity, random movies like Chicago!
Hulu: I have the O.C. patiently waiting for me
Amazon Prime: Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Doctor Who, also Firefly and Serenity. I also watch Guardians of the Galaxy on here, but that's how we own it.
Other: I really haven't planned any shows for after baby yet. That'll be finishing series I've already started and probably watching my TV series that are on DVD only.
@CherryBananas@WombThereItIs: So sad that Top Gear's original hosts changed after so many years and years of broadcasting! But I suppose that's what happens when you clock a coworker in the head But yes to Grand Tour! So much better than the new cast of Top Gear they tried. (It's hard to watch, right?)
Another pick, for anyone into fantasy: season 1 of The Shannara Chronicles is available on Netflix. It's filmed in New Zealand and is gorgeous. There's elves and humans, a prophecy, a quest, magic stones, a hot Druid to guide them... such good entertainment to pass the time.
