There are plenty of TV series out there that will keep you in front of the set, putting in dvd boxset after dvd boxset until you’ve finished the entire thing. The idea of the cliffhanger, the serial, the super-addictive show that forces you to keep watching is back. Here are five examples.
#5 “Gossip Girl”
Sure, it’s just like every other one of those TV series full of rich jerks messing around on each other. But there’s something about the particular nature of these Gossip Girl shows that just keeps you drawn in — whether it’s the NYC setting or the contemporary mores and ‘expose’ feel of its pulpy plots, you won’t be able to turn it off.
#4 True Blood.
There’s just something about a bunch of crazy vampires and the metaphor of the gay community and the loads of crazy sex and over-the-top violence that makes people nuts for this show. If Bill the southern gentleman vampire doesn’t turn your crank, you’ve got Anna Paquin’s Sookie Stackhouse to make you crazy, too. Addictive as anything!
#3 Jersey Shore
Reality TV at its absolute finest, Jersey Shore places a series of insanely exaggerated extroverts into a New Jersey beach house for the summer and watches the ridiculous, overblown, hilarious fireworks. People are continuously fighting, creeping, macking, and all the rest, and when you watch it all with the dvd boxsets, you’ll have had your “guido” fill for many a year.
#2 The Office
Talk about addictive — not only is this show hilarious in its send-up of corporate culture and office inefficiencies, it also amazingly inserted a wonderful romance that has its many, many fans clamoring for more. If you go through the show on DVD, you’ll really see how wonderfully it’s been done.
#1 Lost.
Undoubtedly done to be one of the most addictive series ever made, Lost keeps a global viewing population riveted to their screens with the oldest trick in the book — cliffhangers and the ‘serial’ model that reveals, bit-by-bit, a little piece of the whole. There’s really nothing like it.
