Games For Guilty Pleasure TV
Play while watching your made-for-TV favorites!
As Seen In:
So wait, who are you guys?
We’re Bad TV Bingo, creators of board games that you play while watching your favorite guilty-pleasure TV shows and movies. Our original smash-hit Bad Christmas Movie Bingo is a laugh-out-loud riot alongside the made-for-TV Christmas movie season, and our newest release Bad Murder Mystery Bingo is perfect for any TV whodunnit you can think of — the worse they are, the more fun you’ll have!
Okay, so how do you play?
Sure! Every square on every bingo board is inspired by something that happened in a made-for-TV movie or show that the game’s creators have watched — and they’ve watched a lot of them. Like, approaching a thousand of them. It’s not something that they’re proud of, but… research.
Once you've selected your Bingo movie, there are three ways to play:
TRADITIONAL:
Five squares in a row horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
BLACKOUT:
Go for every square, and whoever gets the most squares wins.
DRUNKEN:
Traditional or Blackout, plus (legal drinking-age) drinks!
Which movies work with your games?
Bad Christmas Movie Bingo: You can play while watching any and every Hallmark or Lifetime Christmas movie ever made. Seriously. All of them. Just turn one on, recent or older, grab a Bingo board, and have a blast.

Pro Tips
Before starting the movie, spend a few minutes getting to know your board and looking at what kinds of events would have to happen in the film for you to win. It's also useful to stop the movie at least once around halfway through to check that everyone has marked off all of the appropriate squares.
