Binge watching TV shows

We only have basic cable, so many of the shows I have liked I can't see because they're on premium channels (American Pickers, Storage Wars, Pawn Stars). There are also old shows I haven't seen in years that I loved that I can't get to on cable.
I have since turned to using the Internet to find sites where these shows are accessible for free and have been enjoying catching up on the first three shows. I'm all caught up on AP and SW, but I've messed several years of Pawn Stars. I didn't even know Old Man had a stroke and was forced to retire!! 
He reminds me in so many ways of my father and grandfather.
But, I've also found a site where I can watch one of my favorites from the 80s - Scarecrow and Mrs. King! I had such a crush on Bruce Boxleitner! Wowzers. I've started the series over with Season 1 because it had been so long, I wasn't sure which episodes I'd missed. Some are a little corny, but others I've really enjoyed trying to figure out the plot while simultaneously enjoying my eye candy.
What shows do you binge watch, if any at all?

I love binge watching, especially when each episode is only 20 minutes. I watched "How I met your mother" shameless and Big Bang theory over many weekends. I now target reality shows (survivor, big brother etc.... Much more exciting not having to wait a whole week for next episode.

I have netflix and hulu so everything I watch is binge watching. Shows like Lost and Rescue Me are better when you binge watch so you don't lose track of what is going on. I would love to catch Scarecrow and Mrs King again, I did catch Remmington Steele and Hunter though.

Ooooooooo, Remington Steele. There's another one to add to the list to find. Monk, Remington Steele.... I used to watch Hunter, too, but I always felt like they were making him too much of a carbon copy of Clint Eastwood, who I also liked in movies, but Hunter seemed too much of a caricature. And his partner was never taken seriously, whereas in Cagney and Lacey, both women were treated with the same respect by their peers as the men they worked with.
