So I have been playing catch up and reading everyone's posts. Last week, many of my blogger friends posted their Top 10 Binge Worthy Shows and I loved reading theirs and adding new ones to my list. Though many of us had a lot of the same shows.
So here's my list:
1. The Office
I have seen every episode of the Office many times. I even own a couple of season. My girls love watching Michael Scott and often ask to watch it. Maybe that isn't the best idea, but it is just sooo funny.
2. Gossip Girl
I binged this when I was pregnant with the girls and I still love it. I have seen the series three times and I should start it again since they are remaking it. Plus the fashion and Lonely Boy.
3. Friends
Does this even need an explanation? I have seen Friends hundreds of times. I own the series, I watch it all the time and can't get enough of it. I watch it on the road to fall asleep to. Just so comforting and the best lines.
4. Gilmore Girls
I was late to watching this show and binged it after the series was over, but it was still so good. I loved the dynamic between Lorelei and Rory. I watched the mini-series that came out years later and I am hoping for another one as even more questions came about. I definitely need to watch this one again.
5. Parenthood
This was one that I had not expected to like, but I did. Kyle Chandler is amazing in it and so is, well the whole cast. Rory and I watched this together and both loved it. It is for everyone. And the ending. Ugh. So good.
6. Breaking Bad
This is another one that I started late. It was already in season 3 and Rory loved it. I binged the first two seasons and caught up on the third season. This show catches you from the first episode and follows Walter White and his drug making escapades. And then they made a prequel, Better Call Saul which is just as good!
7. Bloodline
This show I found on Netflix and binged very quickly. It also has Kyle Chandler in it and follows a black sheep brother and how he gets his family involved in drugs. The family owns a little beach b&b and has to go to hell and back due to some bad decisions by the black sheep brother.
8. Grey's Anatomy
This show is still on and I feel like the first many seasons are binge worthy. I would totally watch those again. A few of the more recent seasons weren't as good, but last season got better. I am sure you all have at least heard of this show, so I won't go into the details of it.
9. Ozark
Another Netflix show that I fell in love with. Jason Bateman is such a good actor. He is a financial guy who gets brought into money laundering through drugs and has to move his family to the Ozarks. This show is crazy, real and just insane. They are going to release season 3 soon, so binge this one now.
10. Dexter
This is a long time favorite of mine. I watched the first three episodes of Dexter and hated it. This was when it first came out. I couldn't identify with Dexter, so I had a hard time connecting. Then I watched a late episode in season 2 and was intrigued, so I went back and watched it. I still had a hard time identifying with him, but pushed through and it is one of my favorite series ever now. Each season has a different serial killer that we follow Dexter and Miami PD try to catch while Dexter does his own vigilantism.
What are your favorite binge worthy shows?

Making A Murderer and a Group Giveaway
Tuesday night we finally finished Making A Murder. And to say that I am disgusted by court system and law enforcement is an understatement.
If you haven't finished Making A Murderer, skip down to the bottom for an amazing giveaway I am co-hosting with several amazing ladies.
SPOILERS AHEAD....
1. How can they convict Avery and Dassey when they have no blood evidence on Theresa. There was no blood in the bedroom and if they slit her throat like it was suggested, there would be blood spatter everywhere. On the walls, the sheets, the mattress, the floor boards, the ceiling, etc. And it would be really hard to clean all of that up. To get every spec of it up. Nope. Not having it.
And then they said it happened in the garage. But the only piece of evidence they found was the bullet with her blood on it. There were cracks in his garage floor. Blood would have gotten in there. And there was so much clutter in that garage that they couldn't have possibly cleaned up all the blood. Plus they found deer blood and Avery's DNA in the garage. What he cleaned up her blood, but not the others?
2. The confession of Dassey should have been thrown out. That confessions (and the others from him) were never consistent. And it was coerced out of him. "What body parts did you see in the fire pit?" After he said none of them several times, they said they knew he saw them. So what parts were there? They elicited a confession out of a boy who has an IQ of a 6 or 7 year old.
3. The cops did not find the Rav4 key for 4 days. So after everyone searched Avery's bedroom for three days, it just happens to be placed under slippers in plain view. Nope. It was planted to nail him (whether he did it or not).
4. It was creepy and suspicious that the ex-boyfriend and roommate could get into Theresa's phone (because her password was so easy) and then present the evidence. What are they hiding? And the fact that the roommate didn't call the police to say she was missing for three days is also off.
5. The fire pit area where the bones were found is off too. How can you burn a body there and it be burned to the degree it was. Only to find some bones. I think there would be a lot more body parts left over. And to burn a body that completely would mean that mega accelerates were used or she was burned elsewhere. Avery had an incinerator, he would have burned her in that. Then there would have been no trace of her. And he wouldn't go spread her bones and ash in the burn pit.
6. The Rav4 and where it was found. If Avery killed her, why would he just park the car up on the ledge area with some branches put on it? He has a car compactor. Wouldn't he get rid of the car that way? And Avery's blood was found in the Rav4, but no fingerprints were found. So he wiped his fingerprints off, but not the blood?
7. Avery did have the shackles that Dassey told the police about in his confession, but the DNA on them was from Avery and an unknown person. Not Theresa.
8. The pierced vile of blood from Avery's first investigation (rape). The only people who had access to the blood was the police....Detective Lenk. And the evidence package was opened and taped back shut using scotch tape. The cap was also pierced. Lenk took blood from the vile and put it in the car of Halbauch. Plain and simple. And so dirty.
9. Finding out about DA Kratz and his sexting put the final nail in his coffin of how dirty he is (literally and figuratively).
And now somethings that don't sit well with me regarding Avery/Dassey.
1. After reading some transcripts from the trial, I read about the perspiration on the hood latch of the Rav4. Avery had to have touched that car at some point and opened her hood. I don't know why? Did he wipe part of the car clean? Can it be planted? It was suggested that he and Dassey moved the car and then he popped the hood to remove the battery cable.
2. The bullet used to kill Theresa came from Avery's gun that hung above his bed. A felon with a gun is a no-no. And it is hard to believe that he didn't know something about her murder. Even if he didn't commit it, he may have known who did it. A family member? Charles?
Ok onto something lighter. A GIVEAWAY!
I am participating in a group giveaway hosted by Karli from September Farm. She is one of my favorite bloggers. We have done several group giveaways together and I even wrote a guest post, Saturday's Confessional.
So for the group giveaway Karli thought it would be great to encourage entrants to think about what they would use the mula for to help reach their resolution(s).
I would use it to towards my new boobs (so my workout tops would fit better and I would feel better about my chest).
Or I would finally get a fitbit/garmin watch (so I can track my workouts and sleep).
Or some new running shoes that I desperately need.
Anyways, what we are getting at, is there are tons of things you can do with $250.
SO...
