Climate change is probably coming for us like the Night King's army on Game of Thrones, but at least we get to start the year with a snow day and some work-mandated remote hours.
So now that you're out of school or the office and trapped in swirling vortex of icy tomb, WHAT SHOULD YOU WATCH FIRST? Fear not, cold brethren, for we have you covered. Check out 10 shows you can binge right now to make the most of your bomb cyclone long weekend.
SEE ALSO:27 reasons 2018 might not totally suck (pop culture edition)The TBS show may seem like formula on paper; it's got a core cast of New York millennials who are struggling and self-absorbed, but Alia Shawkat, John Early, Meredith Hagner, and John Paul Reynolds are an alchemical combination. What gives the show its edge is how well it teeters on the ed of the macabre; Dory (Shawkat) becomes morbidly fascinated with a missing high school classmate to the point where the search consumes her life and thoughts. Season 2 deals with the fallout from a shocking finale and is as transfixing and perversely humorous as the first. We say from experience that you can binge a season in a day.

Yes it's that show that no one will shut up about, and for good reason! (GOOD, get it?) Eleanor Shellstrop (Kristen Bell) finds herself in the Good Place after she dies, but figures out quickly that there's been some kind of monumental mistake and she doesn't belong there. She tries to become a better person with help from Chidi (William Jackson Harper) and to coexist with neighbors Tahani (Jameela Jamil) and Jianyu (Manny Jacinto), but the Good Place has more secrets than they bargained for. If you haven't watched Season 2, what are you waiting for?? It's amazing. And if you haven't watched Season 1, get over here and join us!

Midge Maisel finds an unlikely calling in standup comedy after her husband leaves her. From Gilmore Girls' creator Amy Sherman-Palladino, Mrs. Maisel is expertly paced, balancing Midge's emerging career (including a day job at a department store), family life (mainly her proud Jewish parents, played brilliantly by Tony Shalhoub and Marin Hinkle), and the looming crater of her marriage, which 1950s culture values above all else.

Be warned: This show is heavy. But The Leftovers– about those left on the planet after two percent of the population mysteriously disappears – deals remarkably with collective grief and the exhausting journey to heal. You get the sense that this was the show Lostproducer Damon Lindelof always wanted to make; haunting, calamitous, and cautiously spiritual. It pulls phenomenal performances from its cast, particularly Carrie Coon, Ann Dowd, and Christopher Eccleston, with no shortchanging Justin Theroux as the tortured Kevin Garvey. Does the end of life as we know it inevitably lead to the end of the world?

Also, Season 2, episode 9 is literally about a snow day...what could be more perfect?

This might be a little too close to home what with the whole Russian collusion ~thing~, but FX's drama about Soviet spies in D.C. is nothing if not thought-provoking, and addictive to boot. Philip and Elizabeth Jennings are deep undercover, the very picture of wholesome, homegrown Americans – with two children born on U.S. soil. Hidden by the front of a travel agency where they both work is a legacy of devoted espionage on behalf of the Soviet Union – a reputation threatened when an FBI agent moves into the house next door.

Big Mouthtakes a look at puberty in a way that no other animated show has done before, being brutally honest about what all those stupid hormones did to our growing bodies while simultaneously getting really really weird about seventh graders’ sexualities. Created by comedian Nick Kroll, his childhood best friend Andrew Goldberg, Mark Levin, and Jennifer Flackett, Big Mouthis a hilarious show that you would never want to watch with your parents, but is perfect for bundling up under a blanket alone and doing hot cocoa spit takes at your screen. -Kellen Beck

You might not thinkyou’d enjoy spending seven and a half hours (that’s 18 24-minute episodes) cooped up with a couple that alternates between bickering affectionately and bickering angrily. But that’s just because you haven’t seen Catastropheyet. Sharon Horgan and Rob Delaney star as two people pushed together when a no-strings weekend hookup results in a pregnancy – and find that they rather like being together in spite of themselves. Crackling chemistry and cutting humor make the central pairing a pleasure to watch, while a strong cast of recurring stars (including Carrie Fisher, Extras' Ashley Jensen, and Black Mirror's Daniel Lapaine) livens up the rest of the universe. -Angie Han
