Labor Day TV Marathons - Buffy, Wilfred, and more!

Not sure what to do with your extra day off? Well, thankfully the TV programming gods have prescribed just the thing! With so many marathons on this Monday, there's really no reason to leave your couch. Here are the Top 5 that I recommend. Happy Labor Day!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Chiller, 12 am – 8 pm) | At this point in my blog, do I even need to explain why you should watch this? 

My So-Called Life (Sundance, 11 am – 7 pm) | The teen drama that kind of started it all.


How I Met Your Mother (FX, noon – midnight) | To kick off HIMYM's run on FX, they've got an all day marathon featuring some great episodes like "Subway Wars" and "Bad News." 


Wilfred (IFC, 1 – 4 pm) | I've really been enjoying this show on FX, so if you've missed it there you can catch up on Monday on IFC. This absurd comedy about a man and his dog truly is something different from what else is out there in TVland. 


Friends (Nickelodeon, 8 pm – Tuesday, 5:30 am) | A classic! It's always a good idea to watch.
