Been meaning to hang that frame? Or fix that hole in the wall? Or paint over Pete's eyesore of a mural from the last painting party you threw? Oh, Pete. Sometimes you just need a little inspiration to get motivated and actually do all the things you've been meaning to accomplish around the homestead. Well, look no further than Netflix streaming for your home improvement series fix.
Watch how you can brighten up your place on the cheap with Fixer Upper. Or, if your shack is beyond repair, see how the other half lives in Extreme Homes. Or, if you already live in a modest, 3,000 square-foot modular, check out Beachfront Bargain Hunt to get some ideas for retired life. No matter your situation, however, be sure to spend time with Drew and Jonathan Scott of Property Brothers for some helpful tips about smart budgeting. Plus, they're easy on the eyes! Without further ado, get ready to waste some time this weekend with the following home improvement shows, listed in order of their binge-ability.

'House Hunters International'
Let's get the inferior House Hunters spin-off out of the way: House Hunters International. Why inferior, you say? Listen, these clients are simply too sophisticated for reality TV. I mean, they're moving to Europe and Asia in the first place, so they can scram with their posh tastes and uncanny desire for houses made out of river rocks with windmills in the backyard and ivy just casually climbing up the side of their red brick chimneys. This one is worth your time, however, if you're easily charmed by, well, any place other than the U.S. of A.

'Dear Genevieve'
Former MTV VJ turned TLC superstar, Genevieve Gorder (Trading Spaces), is like the fairy princess of home makeover shows. After she kicks off her shoes (that's really a thing she does), she gets right to work, completely reinventing space after space and adding her own creative flair. If you binge through this collection in no time at all, check out her other HGTV collection, Genevieve's Renovation(also on Netflix), in which you watch Genevieve makeover her own, massive NYC apartment. But before you get too jealous, keep in mind its a five-floor walkup. Ha! Can't have it all, Genevieve.

'Small Space Big Style'
Anyone who dwells in a microscopic urban apartment willlovethis show, without a doubt. Though it gets old rather quickly to watch fellow plebeians attempt to navigate their kitchen that's also their living room which also happens to be their bathroom, it's totally inspiring to watch the power of IKEA furniture come to life. All kidding aside: this series is packed with nifty ideas for how to make the most of your tiny space.

From thrifting to recycling, this series is chock full of handy inspiration to transform your pad without emptying your bank account. College grads who are just starting out — grab a bowl of Ramen noodles and start watching.

'Flip or Flop'
If you're the type of binge-watcher who prefers high-stakes leisure to regular old leisure then check out this craziness. Realtors Tarek and Christina El Moussa buy up a bunch of foreclosed homes, renovate them, and flip them to make a profit. It's a huge risk for reward, however; especially when the properties they purchase are roach and rat infested, filled with mold, or come with no working plumbing. Sometimes, it's all three!

'Fixer Upper'
If you like a little romance with your renovation shows, turn to Chip and Joanna Gaines: husband-and-wife design experts who bop around Texas making dreams come true. No, really. They're magical. Swooping into starter homes, Chip and Joanna give their clients a boost to create their very best living space. They're like Pinterest perfection come to life.

'Extreme Homes'
House shaped like a UFO? Condo made entirely of glass? If you're looking for something you've never seen before, check out Extreme Homes. This doesn't necessarily fit into the home improvement sector of our DIY binge-watching journey, but it's certainly just as addictive! But what's even more fun than seeing these bizarre homes is getting to meet the kooks who had them built. What a world.

'Beachfront Bargain Hunt'
This is a must-watch, especially if you're stuck on the freezing East Coast this winter. But aside from providing a sense of false warmth, Beachfront Bargain Hunt may be the most inspiring show streaming right now. Really. Featuring (mostly) successful retirees looking to spend the last decades of their lives amongst the sand and surf, Beachfront Bargain Hunt is pure motivation to finally get your 401K squared away and invest in some high-risk mutual funds so you can reap similar rewards in the later years of your awesome life.

'Property Brothers'
Canadian twins Drew (the clean cut one) and Jonathan (the one with the sexy '90s hair flop) Scott are contractor-realtor partners in crime, helping less attractive homebuyers acquire and transform their fixer upper into their dream home. It's pretty remarkable what these two accomplish while looking so gosh darn sexy. And the best part is that they know it.

'House Hunters'
It's time folks, the mother of all HGTV fodder: House Hunters. This one is a mix of home-buying and home improvement because often times, potential buyers like to bitch about what they'll have to spruce upon moving in. In addition to acting as the most addictive show possibly ever, House Hunters also makes for an excellent drinking game. For example, drink every time someone says, "Open concept," "Nice backsplash," or "It's a little small…" and you're bound to have a solid buzz in no time.
