There's something about booze and streaming that makes a delicious combination. Whether you're watching the ladies of Sex and the City throw back Manhattans or Tony Stark offer his rival a drink before entering an epic superpowered fight in The Avengers, alcohol is an integral part of many of our favorite shows.
Because you like to drink and we know they like to drink, we decided to match you guys up. Consider this your drinking buddy guide. No matter what the reason you're drinking or how much you plan to consume, there is a fictional drinking buddy out there for you. However, we at Decider only support healthy, moderate alcohol consumption. With that out of the way, open up a cold one and meet your new boozy streaming buddies.
1
When you have it out for your liver: The gang, "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia"
Sometimes you don't just want to drink; you want to drink like the world is ending tomorrow and the only way you can save everyone is to consume all the vodka in existence. While most normal people reserve that level of drunken desperation for birthdays and New Year's, the gang is not most people. It's Always Sunny is the perfect background drinking-focused show to throw on when you know you and you best friend are about to get into some shenanigans. But if you really want to hate yourself the next day, attempt playing your own version of CharDee MacDennis: The Game of Games. Just be careful. Be very very careful.

If repression is the name of the game: Jessica Jones, "Marvel's Jessica Jones"
We're not suggesting that alcohol is a healthy coping mechanism. It's not, and if you're suffering from a real problem, you should seek professional medical attention. However, if you need a drink to help you stop thinking about the stupid thing you did at work today, what better streaming drinking buddy than Netflix's resident alcoholic, Jessica Jones. Also, if you want a guide to everything your favorite PI drank during Season One, BuzzFeed has you covered. Just don't attempt to keep up with Jessica's pace. She is a superhero, after all.

When you need to unwind after work: Homer Simpson, "The Simpsons"
Is there a better way to unwind after a long day at the business factory than by popping open a beer? I don't think the patriarch of America's longest-running animated family can think of any better alternatives. Alcohol and specifically beer are so integral to the world of The Simpsons, the Simpsons-themed Universal theme park additions feature three different types of custom-made beer. So join in the tradition, prop up your feet, open up a cold one, and raise you bottle to Homer as you press play.

When you want everyone to know your name: Norm Peterson, "Cheers"
The Show: Cheers
The best thing about Norm's relationship with just another drink is that it never seemed to end. However, that probably wasn't great for his liver.

If you prefer drinking socially but hate meeting new people, then it's time to channel your inner "Norm!" Over Cheers' iconic 11 seasons, Norm became the quintessential example of the bar staple. He was grumpy, badgering, and was always ready to have one more quick round, though he never seemed to know what "quick" meant. That can be you. Gain inspiration from one of the most iconic fictional drinkers out there and get ready to drain your wallet at your local bar.

If you're keeping it classy...sort of: Ron Swanson, "Parks and Recreation"
If your drink of choice can be declared in one word, Ron Swanson may be the drinking buddy for you. You like to keep things simple, clean, and professional. You scoff at the unnecessary fruit wedges and umbrellas that adorn the drinks of your peers because you know the truth: All that you need to enjoy a drink is a bottle, a glass, and a mouth. However, that doesn't mean you can't cut loose if you don't want to. Embrace your more straightforward side by streaming Parks and Recreation, or share a scotch with Nick Offerman.

When you're missing your college days: Brother Bluto, "Animal House"
I think we've all quoted Asher Roth at some point in our lives: "I love college." For many of us, college represented our drinking glory days. Why not try to recapture that optimism and lack of real responsibility by watching one of the best movies about college out there? There are several things to love about this movie — the fraternity underdog story, togas parties, the hazing rituals that simultaneously made you cringe and made you want to join Greek life — but let's be real. You love the movie for the late John Belushi's near-silent performance as Brother Bluto. Let him be your guide back to your good old college days.

If you're in a gossipy mood: Lindsay Jillian, "You're the Worst"
Gretchen and Jimmy may be messed up, but they have nothing on Gretchen's best friend, Lindsay. This newly married housewife is a breakdown waiting to happen, and we watch that breakdown initiate several times. Admit it, she's essentially the comedy show manifestation of every catty girl you've met in a women's restroom, and she always looks adorable to boot. Gain some pointers from Lindsay on how to be a functional trainwreck and up your sweater game.

When you're looking for a judgement-free time: Abbi and Ilana, "Broad City"
Whether they're storing their weed in "nature's pocket" or eating multiple guilt-ridden fried mac and cheese balls, Broad City's Abbi and Ilana are in it for a good time and are borderline shameless. This combination makes them the perfect partying team. Throw on this golden comedic pair and prepare for antics galore, just make sure you drink with a support buddy.

If your self esteem feels a bit too high: Lucille Bluth, "Arrested Development"
We all say we want nice, sweet, selfless friends, but admit it. Oftentimes the most fun friend is the meanest. I highly doubt that this socialite would ever be friends with you, but she would definitely judge all of your life choices in the most dramatic and crushing way she could think of. Though the night may end in tears, consider this matriarch your guru to unleashing your inner mean girl.

When you want to get business drunk: Peggy Olson and Don Draper, "Mad Men"
We're not saying you should drink at work. But for those days when your business lunch bleeds into happy hour, that's when you need to channel the two best professional drunks out there, Don Draper and Peggy Olson. Though Peggy is a relatively recent addition to this booze-fueled club, Don has been throwing back drinks at noon from Season One. Consider these two your inspiration when you need a lunch martini to dominate the upcoming meeting you have with your boss.
