The Era Of Peak TV may give us more great TV than ever before, but this golden time does have its drawbacks, too. The main television issue these days? Having so many choices that it’s impossible to settle on just one show. Seriously, think of all the TV show recommendations you get in a single day. It’s overwhelming.
That’s why we broke down all the best television series you can binge right now. We picked shows that live on their networks and streaming sites, so they’ll never disappear because of some strange business battle or contractual dispute. There’s everything from comedies and dramas, Netflix originals and HBO blockbusters, zany comedies and serious dramas.

Lovesick
U.K. rom-com Lovesick — previously titled the understandably-ditched Scrotal Recall — is the best fell-good show very few people are talking about. Please binge this shockingly lovable comedy, about a young British man (Johnny Flynn) informing all of his past sexual partners of an STI diagnosis, the absolute second you have a free moment.
Despite the out-there premise, I swear you'll thank me.

iZombie
Everyone loved Veronica Mars from writer-creator-producer Rob Thomas. So, why is Thomas's latest project, zombie crime show iZombie, getting so little love? The CW series' lead character, Liv Moore (Rose McIver) is just as intelligent, determined, and witty as the aforementioned Miss Mars — plus, Liv cashes in on our latest zombie craze in a much more creative way than a certain AMC blockbuster.
With three complete seasons now on Netflix, it's time to get bit by the (i)Zombie bug.

Game Of Thrones
If you’re one of the seven people who still hasn’t seen Game Of Thrones, start binging immediately. Once you enter the world of Westeros you’ll never want to leave.
Plus, if you start now, you’ll probably have enough time to to watch all six seasons of Thrones before season 7’s July 16 premiere.

Penny Dreadful
Showtime ended this eye-popping gothic drama after three seasons, leaving you with 27 episodes filled with demons, vampires, and old-timey brooding to binge though. Penny Dreadful couldn’t be a better companion for a rainy weekend inside.

Outlander
If you love the gorgeous period touches of Penny, but are terrified by its creepy horror elements, dive into Outlander. The Starz series is beautiful and offers some of the best sex scenes on television.
Once you’re done, know season 3 premieres in September 2017.

Jessica Jones
Netflix has introduced all four of its Marvel superhero shows and Jessica Jones is by far our favorite. Enjoy all of the Krysten Ritter-starring series’ stellar first season and then keep your fingers crossed that season 2 gets a premiere date soon.
