13 Guilty Pleasures You Can't Help But Watch

Okay, sure it's super cheesy, and of course Girl Meets World pales in comparison to the original, but it's still a rather enjoyable series. The close friendships are relatable, and it's fun when there are throwbacks to the original series. Plus, we still get to see one of the best relationships TV has ever given us - Cory and Shawn.

As a person who worked as a TV Director during the entire crime aftermath and trial, I was surprised at how accurate The People vs OJ Simpson was. That being said, it was pure trash – glorious, off the wall trash, but trash nonetheless.

Gotham regularly takes a giant crap on everything fans have ever associated with the Batman universe, but it is so zany and ridiculous that I can't tear my eyes away from it.

You really can't get worse than Too Close to Home on TLC. As described on TLC, "A young woman is forced to return to her trailer-park beginnings after her political career is derailed by a sex scandal." Yeah, a girl sleeps with the President and even her best friends can't stand to look at her because how dare her bring trouble upon them. Long, pointed stares, terrible scenes about – literally – nothing, and a giant fat mom who rots in her own trailer filth because she can't be moved from her bed. But Sage from Young and the Restless got the gig, Brock O'Hurn (um...yum) and HEATHER LOCKLEAR, and now it's a matter of watching to see just how bad it can really get from here.

Crime, crime and more crime on ID. A Crime to Remember, People Magazine Investigates and The 1980s: The Deadliest Decade are current favorites. The historical aspect of the crimes really make them interesting and noteworthy. From unknown serial killers to an indepth look at the Preppie Killer, these are like the best of crime procedurals such as Criminal Minds, but they're all true. Looking everything up on Google afterward can turn one hour into many more hours of entertainment. Eeek. Calling this entertainment sounds wrong. Gulp.

Reelz Channel's trio of Autopsy: The Last Hours Of [insert celebrity here], Case Closed with AJ Benza and National Inquirer Investigates are the celebrity versions of the ID network shows. The best is clearly Autopsy, in which a medical examiner goes page by page through an autopsy of a celebrity, and they recreate with actors and photos the last days of someone, putting to rest rumors that may have never been successfully debunked in the press. Cory Haim? The flu. Who knew?

This summer Zoo embraced its crazy and went all out to go as nuts as possible. They killed off a major character, brought on another, had incredible cures for outrageous viruses attacking the animals of the planet and ended with a 12 year time jump to an infertile world without children. Thrills, chills and eyerolls galore, but never a dull moment. It was exactly what I want from a summer show, but on hyperdrive. Best news? it was renewed. SCORE!

Big Brother is complete and utter garbage. The majority of the time the cast is awful. It has had some of the worst cases of gross misogyny and racism in almost all the reality shows. It is in no way the same show it was when it first aired...oh God, almost seventeen years ago. It has devolved into the insipid waste of brain cells that is stereotypically associated with reality televison in particular. And half the time they don't even bother hiding the fact that it's rigged. Every year in a fit of disgust and/or rage I tell myself "never again" and every year I tune in. It's not even fair to say it's a guilty pleasure. There is no pleasure. I hate watch it through and through.

Fuller House tends to lay it on really thick when it comes to the big hug moments and the callbacks to the original series. But that's also what makes it great. It's cheesey and a bit overdone, sure, but this show is all about the nostalgia. Plus, it's a nice, feel-good, family show for when you need a break from things like Game of Thrones.

Let me just say, I hate reality television more than most but my mom talked me into watching Married At First Sight with her and I actually love it now. I love that they scientifically match these people based on their values, backgrounds, preferences, etc. I love that they have experts help them navigate the ins and outs of marriage. When they get overwhelmed or frustrated or scared, they can turn to Dr. Pepper, a sociologist, or Rachel DeAlto, a relationship expert, or Calvin Roberson, a marriage counselor and pastor. Their advice actually helps my mom and I deal with various problems that arise in our relationships. Out of 12 couples, 8 have gotten divorced but 4 are still married and adorable to follow.

Shark Tank is totally scripted, edited ridiculously, and completely awkward, but I'll be damned if I ever miss an episode! I don't know if it's because I dream of making deals with millionaires or finding things I'd normally only find in the "As Seen on TV" section of the drugstore, but as bad as Shark Tank is, I can't get enough of it!

Vanderpump Rules. The latest drama for Lisa Vanderpump and her gang of toxic workers at SUR infuriate me to the point I get close to turning the TV off, but somehow, I must find out who has been cheating on their partner. Yeah, it's THAT bad.

Bachelor in Paradise Season 3 was the most ridiculous hot mess I'd ever seen. I could have used about twenty more seasons exclusively dedicated to Meat Chad and Canadian Daniel's bromance... but maybe that's just me.
