The notion of a television show that practically demands you keep watching it is here to stay. TV series are made to suck you in, and not just for advertiser dollars — buying the dvd boxsets means you can smash through those shows in a marathon of viewing. Check out these 5 crazily addictive ones.

#5 Gossip Girl

Sure, it\’s just like every other one of those TV series full of rich jerks messing around on each other. But there\’s something about the particular nature of these Gossip Girl shows that just keeps you drawn in — whether it\’s the NYC setting or the contemporary mores and \’expose\’ feel of its pulpy plots, you won\’t be able to turn it off.

#4 True Blood.

The southern atmosphere and the civil-war era vampires, mixed with a great dose of sexiness and a little bit of Anne Rice-style craziness gives HBO viewers (and those of us following on DVD) a series we can\’t seem to turn away from.

#3 Jersey Shore

Reality TV at its absolute finest, Jersey Shore places a series of insanely exaggerated extroverts into a New Jersey beach house for the summer and watches the ridiculous, overblown, hilarious fireworks. People are continuously fighting, creeping, macking, and all the rest, and when you watch it all with the dvd boxsets, you\’ll have had your \”guido\” fill for many a year.

#2 The Office

Sure, it\’s an ironic show that mocks the modern office environment, but they\’ve managed to write in an absolutely wonderful romance story that has got practically the entire country hooked on this show and the ups and downs of its characters, and when you watch this tv series on dvd, you realize how well they\’ve planned this all along.

#1 Lost.

Lost is absolutely custom-created for addiction — by following the cliffhanger format and building its story around a series of wild revelations, you simply can\’t watch this show (especially if you\’re picking up the dvd boxsets and going through them in a marathon) without becoming completely beholden to its format. Easily the most \’addictive\’ show of all time.
