Everyone may be packing up their beach bags and hitting up barbecues this holiday weekend, but a three-day weekend means something totally different for all our fellow TV-lovers out there...it means three glorious days filled with nothing but camping out on your couch, remote in hand and snacks prepared for days of binge-watching!

Because really, who needs fireworks when you've got great TV?!

This Fourth of July weekend, while all your friends and loved ones get painfully sunburnt, eaten alive by mosquitoes and suffer hearing loss from fireworks shows, stay safely cuddled up on your couch and use our handy guide to all the TV marathons and specials airing this weekend. You're welcome!
