It would be nice to have a list of people's preferences. Anything goes so long as you can stream it somewhere.

I can start, in no particular order:

Breaking Bad
Game of Thrones
Dexter
Sopranos
Deadwood
Westworld
Stranger Things
Daredevil
Firefly

Hell on Wheels (first two seasons, at least). -- It's a railroad western. Netflix has it. Production value is just top notch. The first two season story arc is also top notch. Plus it's got Colm Meany. S3+ it changes a little. They're still great, but probably not binge-fodder.

Not listed so far:
Jericho - even though it is older and was cut off before the story completed. I've watched it start to end twice now.
Lost if you only watch season 1.
Z Nation - First season was ok but the quality of acting went up as time went on. Yes it is a very goofy zombie series but it doesn't take itself very serious until the 3rd season. It's really well done considering it was meant as a parody of zombies
Dark Matter - Up and downs but solid science fiction 2 seasons are done season 3 coming up later this year.
The Walking Dead - If you want a longer series this one goes way up and way down. It has excellent weeks and what did I just watch weeks. You'd almost be better off if you skipped parts of the season including most of season 2.

Penny Dreadful is on Netflix now, great binge show.
The other Marvel Netflix shows are awesome in addition to Daredevil; Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. Iron Fist starts March 17th.

Feed your inner kid with Voltron the Legendary Defender and all of Clone Wars on Netflix.

As per the Black Mirror thread, don't binge unless you're ready to be in a depressed funk for a few days. Some of those episode can mess you up depending on your life circumstances.

Only show I've binged in a while was "Zoo", have to dismiss a few plot holes but the cast was fun and animals wrecking shit left and right.

Lot of great shows listed in this thread. This is one of my favorites and I feel is very underrated. The cast and writers are around the same age as me and the jokes seem like things my friends and I would make.

Ok, got through Dark Matter. Really enjoyed it and looking forward to season 3.

So now... looking at Spronks list, minus stuff I've already seen:


Rome
Spartacus
Silicon Valley
Farscape
Babylon 5 (seen bits and pieces)

newer:
Black Sails
The Expanse
12 Monkeys
Killjoys
Hell on Wheels

Any of these stand out as "can't miss" level of good?

I'll add a binge worthy mini series:

The People vs. OJ Simpson

It's on Netflix, and I made it through all 10 episodes in 2 days.

I would recommend Spartacus and Babylon 5. Baby5 is pretty dated visually but is probably the best sci Fi series ever made.

^ Second that. I think 'best sci Fi series ever made' is maybe a tiny bit too far, but it's definitely up there with Firefly/BSG/DS9, and deserves more attention than it gets.
