Netflix's New Year's Resolution Is One You Can Actually Keep

Forget the weight loss goal. Catch up on the greatest TV!

As 2016 approaches, many people will be making resolutions to better themselves.

Some will resolve to lose weight, others to read more. Still others will commit to spending more time with friends and family.

But Netflix has a "realistic" resolution that's more fun than any of those things: binge-watch the shows that everyone's seen and won't stop talking about.

The streaming service has produced a series of merit badges for some of its most popular offerings. And, like in the Scouts, they want you to earn them this year.

"The X-Files" (nine seasons)

Netflix Badges To Earn in 2016

Among the merits are the "blue meth" badge for "Breaking Bad," the "cocaine" badge for "Narcos," and the "coffee" badge for "Gilmore Girls."

They may not be badges you can wear over your chest, but they'll help you keep up with the conversation at dinner parties.

Here's wishing all of you happy watching, and a wonderful new year!
