Five 90’s TV Shows to Binge Watch Right Now



The 1990’s was by far the greatest decade to end a century. During this era flannel shirts were considered fashion-forward, boy bands were heartthrobs, and couch commando was most widely played game since every television show produced was just that good. In the midst of a 90’s comeback and with summer vacation approaching here are five 90’s TV shows to binge watch all summer long or, if you just cannot wait that long, right now.

Beverly Hills, 90210 (1990-2000): Thank you 1990’s for reviving primetime soaps. Follow the dramatic world of rich teens growing up in Beverly Hills as they embark on their adolescent journey. Plus, watch Tori Spelling play a wasted teen at prom, Jason Priestly get drugged by one of his many girlfriends, and Luke Perry hook up with both Jennie Garth and Shannen Doherty, which inevitability causes a lot of catfights.

Friends (1994-2004): A classic 90’s sitcom and one of the best to ever grace our television screens. This show offers an array of characters, or friends, that are present in your life including: your best friend from college, your crazy roommate, annoying sibling, and cute next-door neighbors. In addition, you should thank this sitcom for glorifying the idea of coffee shops and making the “Rachel” haircut socially acceptable.

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (1990-1996): If you don’t already know the catchy theme song by Will Smith you should go memorize the lyrics immediately as to not embarrass yourself when you inevitably hear “From West Philadelphia Born and Raised…” A classic and paramount 90’s sitcom, Will Smith stars as a novelized version of himself who moves from the hoods of Philly to live with his auntie and uncle in the fancy town Bel-Air where he inescapably manages to cause trouble.

Beavis and Butt-head (1993-2011): This one may come as a surprise, but cartoons in the 1990’s, most notably “The Simpsons”, paved the way for crude cartoons that we all love and religiously watch today. The series follows two rudimentary, dim-witted teenage boys who show no moral, have no parental supervision, and wannabe delinquents. Laugh at Beavis and Butthead as they partake in immature and idiotic activities that you just can’t even.


Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1997-2003): Sarah Michelle Geller redefines the horror genre in her role as Buffy Summers where the girl is plays the hero rather than the damsel in distress. When Buffy isn’t dealing with her ordinary high-school drama she’s slaying the demons of darkness with the help of her trusty “Scooby Gang”. As if a girl kicking-butt isn’t addicting enough steamy romances, sexy vampires, and of course action are all more reasons to get binge watch this show.
