Though the weather outside in most parts of the Northeast is frightful, the streaming options are really freakin’ delightful.
Daria
Where it's available: Amazon Prime, Hulu Plus
Why it's worth streaming: Who better to spend your night, day, and maybe another night at home with than the smartest high-schooler ever to exist on television? She says what you're thinking and, let's be real, you'll be doing a lot of thinking while cooped up at home the next couple days.

Friends
Where it's available: Netflix
Why it's worth streaming: If you haven't already burned through the beloved NBC series when it first hit Netflix on Jan. 1, could there be a better time to reacquaint yourselves with New York City's best sixsome ever? For the non-completists out there, just tune into the Season 1 episode "The One With the Blackout." For reasons that need not be explained, you'll really feel like Chandler, Monica, Joey, Phoebe, Ross, and Rachel get what you're going through right now. ('Cause they're there for you tooooooo.)

Transparent
Where it's available: Amazon Prime
Why it's worth streaming: Amazon's first big hit — about the Pfefferman family's journey as patriarch Mort comes out as transgender — is one of the most touching, human, and fantastic projects to emerge from Hollywood in the past year. If you feel like a good cry and a hearty laugh, this one couldn't be more perfect.

Xena: Warrior Princess
Where it's available: Hulu Plus
Why it's worth streaming: I could tell you, or I could just leave this here. But really, this one's for those of you in need of some seriously strong lesbian subtext and some even stronger badass bitches to get you through the storm.
