It’s midterms! You should be spending every waking hour in the library studying for your exams and practicing speaches for your big presentations coming up. While there are a few good students out there who do go to the library and rightfully prepare for thier midterms, most of us don’t. Most of us procrastinate. Most of us decide binging on Netflix is a much more productive way to spend the final hours leading up to our big tests.

If you’re like us and love Netflix, add these 8 originals to your binge worthy list.

If you like mysteries, this is the show for you. This documentary style show explores what really happened after a woman was convicted twice of murder and then acquitted.

Master of None

Orange is the new Black

Female prison drama! This show, based on real events, combines comedy and character building to show the bad and sometimes good about what being a convicted criminal is like.

Stranger Things
