12 Shows Adam 12 Says You Should Binge-watch

Sure, everyone and their mother has their list of shows you should watch while on Coronavirus-related lockdown. But this one’s mine, and it’s rules. There’s comedy, horror, drama, and sci-fi….

Remember Sabrina from Archie comics? Her show is a wicked combination of teenage drama and subtle satire. Start with the first season and work your way into the current, third season.

Sure, everyone and their mother has their list of shows you should watch while on Coronavirus-related lockdown. But this one's mine, and it's rules. There's comedy, horror, drama, and sci-fi. And there are shows from every major streaming platform. So start bingeing.

American Gods

Adapted from the book by Neil Gaiman, it's the story of the Old Gods (think Odin) battling the new gods (think Media) for the soul of America.


Chilling Adventures of Sabrina

Remember Sabrina from Archie comics? Her show is a wicked combination of teenage drama and subtle satire. Start with the first season and work your way into the current, third season.


The Eric Andre Show

The greatest fake talk show of all time. Bite-sized, 10-minute episodes of awkward interviews and complete mayhem.


The Haunting of Hill House

Infinitely bingeable, with a combination of jump-scares and real, family-style horror. You'll probably knock this one off in a day.


Locke & Key

Based on the series of comics from Joe Hill, Season One of the new series debuted earlier this year and it's a must-watch.


The Mandalorian

Two words: Baby Yoda.


The Outsider

Like most things Stephen King, it's a near-perfect blend of suspense, sci-fi, horror, and humanity.


Regular Show

Highly recommended if you're stuck home with (older) kids. I've been making my way through all eight seasons with my kids over the last few months.


Schitt's Creek

This is the funniest TV show on any streaming platform, currently. Take my word for it. Watch it and laugh yourself through quarantine.


Best Summer TV: Stranger Things

How have you not watched this yet? And even if you have, watch all three seasons again!


Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job

Someone (I think it was actually Tim) described Tim and Eric as a "funny nightmare" and that's 100% accurate.


Twin Peaks: The Return

For hardcore David Lynch fans only. It's TV's version of a Möbius strip. It sticks with you.
