I'm looking for a new show to get unhealthily interested in. Blacklist and Fringe were my last two obsessions, so tell me what you're Netflix Binge Watching now!
 
last weekend i started watching The 100 and i watched both seasons in a few days. it definitely has me hooked.
 
I binged nine seasons of Supernatural in two weeks while I was finally processing SW's passing.

More recently, I got caught up on House of Cards, I'm about halfway through Dexter, started Sherlock a couple days ago, and discovered that some of the old Forensic Files episodes are available. My immediate future will also have quite a few Netflix originals in it that I just haven't gotten to yet. I'm loving the quality superhero/fantasy/scifi material that is coming out.
 
Most people wouldn't call it binge watching, as I only watch an episode a day or so, but considering that in the normally I can go days without watching tv, it counts for me - design on a dime.
 
I am watching the entire 7 seasons of West Wing again for the 4th time. It makes me wish we had a Jeb Bartlet running for President.
 
I somehow got hooked on Blue Bloods.
I like shows with lots of past seasons available so I can really indulge when I want.
 
British detective mysteries
15 seasons of midsomer murders
George Gently
Inspector morse
Frost
Ripper Street-I think it was cancelled and brought back. Really enjoyed it.

Just finished Jack Taylor.

On the list
~supernatural season 10 since the cw might pull everything and start their own service
~z nation season 2. So much better than the walking dead. The "hero" is selfish, a bit evil and has a wicked sense of dark humor.
~Helix season 2. I loved season 1. I wasn't sure what to expect but I ended up being hooked.
 
Just finished rewatching How I Met Your Mother, now rewatching The Big Bang Theory.

It's not on netflix, but I recommend Two Broke Girls and Better Off Ted (found on putlocker). They're both laid back and I find it quite funny. :)
 
Binge watching The Wire. It's not on Netflix but still is awesome. Actually watching it because I'm in a calls at college that is on this show. It's awesome so far.
 
I binge watched Longmire recently. Great show, and now I am in that... Can't wait for the next season to be released.. holding pattern that I hate :(

I share your desire for a smart and thoughtful President, but the character you're thinking of was Josiah "Jed" Bartlett. Jeb (with a b) is a failed presidential candidate who was a scion of a completely different old New England family.

The closest I have come to binge-watching was a couple years ago when I watched the first two or three seasons of Cheers in the space of a week. I tried with Mad Men last year but got tired of the characters before I was half-way through the first season. I think that few shows truly hold up to the close scrutiny that binge-watching creates. I sometimes forget little plot holes or weaknesses in writing if I wait a week between episodes. In binge-watching these all come crashing down on me at once, like a chandelier that someone mistook for a piñata.

Fortitude! Although it's Amazon Prime.

Twin Peaks fucks Fargo and births an X-Files baby.

Also, I was late to the "Gotham" party, but good Lord, after season two I had to go back and watch the first season.

How I love you, gritty, dark, slick-streeted, modern-day-but-still-art-deco-Gotham, filled with young versions of Bruce Wayne, Commissioner Gordon, Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler and now, Mr. Freeze. ❤️

Make sweet love to me, origin orgy.

I enjoy Supernatural as well, I'm currently on S8. I don't watch much TV or Netflix, maybe 3 episodes when I do, but it counts as a 'binge' to me haha. I also really love NCIS, I'm currently about halfway through S6. I tried watching Dexter, but didn't make it through the first episode...too convincing of a job, if you ask me! Oh well. :)
 
I only watch TV when I workout, so my binge is 2 to 3 episodes. Halfway through season 4 of Supernatural, season 2 of House of Cards.
 
Ones I'm following right now are:

-Elementary-
Contemporary take on Sherlock Holmes. Was very good up till maybe a season or two ago. Now they're suffering the consequences of being almost universally monster-of-the-week with minor sub-plots and Sherlock's Gary Stu-ness (Re-using material). I'd give it an 8.2 for its first few seasons. It's dropped to maybe a 5 or 6.

-Daredevil-
Self explanatory?

-Fear the Walking Dead-
The Walking Dead offshoot covering the first days of the zombie outbreaks in the USA. You'd have thought that if it started in Asia they'd have had forewarning? Meh. Maybe a 7.5-7.7.

-Lucifer-
:devil: heahgeahgheahgahh :devil:
Lucifer has the best lines I have ever heard in a TV series.
Straight off the bat in episode 1 he's got the wittiest lines and they're not getting old. 8.2.

-Gotham-
Contemporary prequel to the Batman franchise detailing the main villains' rises to power. Obviously written by loyal Batman enthusiasts and has the best child actors I've ever seen to date. 7.9.

I also started but apparently forgot about two murder mystery series' I was following...
