As a professional binge-watcher, I’ve come to realize that one of the most irritating things for me is finishing every show I’ve loved halfway through break. It’s a tempting cycle, really; you catch up to one, finish another, and begin an entirely new series the moment you run out of options.
For those who know my struggle, I’ve compiled a list of premiere dates for every season and mid-season premiere coming out this January (feeding your TV addiction, you’re welcome). A tribute in celebration of more episodes of our favorite shows, it includes some of my addictions as well as others I’ve been told to look out for. Mark your calendars, and enjoy!
1. Black Mirror
Full Season 4
Premiere Date: December 29, 2017
Where to Watch: Netflix
This came out late December, but is still a recent must-watch. This season, as a group, is probably my favorite out of the four.
2. The Bachelor
Season 22, Episode 1
Premiere Date: January 1, 2018
Where to Watch: ABC, xfinityoncampus.com
I also began this one over winter break (it’s such a guilty pleasure). It’s so entertaining, yet frankly stupid at the same time. Love it.
3. The Blacklist
Season 5, Episode 9
Premiere Date: January 3, 2018
Where to Watch: NBC, xfinityoncampus.com
I still need to catch up on this show, but its mid-season premiere came out January 3rd!
4. The Flash
Season 4, Episode 10
Premiere Date: January 16, 2018
Where to Watch: The CW, xfinityoncampus.com
I personally haven’t started this series yet, but my roommates are obsessed. I’m just assuming it’s great since I fully trust their judgment.
5. Riverdale
Season 2, Episode 10
Premiere Date: January 17, 2018
Where to Watch: The CW, xfinityoncampus.com
Amusing and easily addicting, the cast is just as great as the show itself. Pretty much all I need to say.
6. Grey’s Anatomy
Season 14, Episode 9
Premiere Date: January 18, 2018
Where to Watch: ABC, xfinityoncampus.com
People are surprised by how dedicated I am to this show, but here I am, 14 seasons in, and still going strong.
7. How to Get Away with Murder
Season 4, Episode 9
Premiere Date: January 18, 2018
Where to Watch: ABC, xfinityoncampus.com
The first time I binge-watched this, I felt like I was about to have a miniature heart attack every other episode (but in a totally great way).
8. Supernatural
Season 13, Episode 10
Premiere Date: January 18, 2018
Where to Watch: The CW, xfinityoncampus.com
I need to catch up on this show too, but it’s still a keeper!
9. Jane the Virgin
Season 4, Episode 9
Premiere Date: January 26, 2018
Where to Watch: The CW, xfinityoncampus.com
Funny, sometimes emotional, and super entertaining, this show has me and my best girlfriends obsessed.
