Sure, there’s great television out there like “Scandal” and “American Horror Story” that everyone and their mother watches, but there are quite a few other wonderful programs that don’t get enough credit. So if you’ve run out of shows to binge watch, don’t worry we’ve got you covered.
“Catastrophe”
“Catastrophe” is a British sitcom starring Carrie Fisher and sometimes her dog, Gary. That’s all you need to know.

“Orphan Black”
One reason and one reason only: Tatiana Maslany plays at least 10 different characters (clones) in this Canadian sci-fi thriller. If that isn’t incredible, we don’t know what is.
