I hate the term "Binge-watching" because IDK if you know but "binge" is a word that implies you're doing something to an unhealthy degree. That's possibly true of shows, I personally DON'T like watching episode after episode of something in like two days and I RESENT the fact that "Watching one episode a day" or "watching one episode a week" is considered awful metrics for the show. Seriously: I thought the benefit of streaming was "at my leisure".
Anyway my problem with this is that I feel like we're trying to put a positive spin on a word that we associate with unhealthy or problematic things.
Anyway.... I should probably find out when Shows I like are getting new episodes so I can immediately watch them, probably binge them despite wanting to do things at my own pace, in the hopes that Netflix doesn't cancel the show they never reminded me existed instead promoting shit they know I'd never watch, probably to spite people who wanted a raise.
But yes, life hack: figure out when a new season of a show you like drops, put it in your planner or google calendar and just SCHEDULE YOUR ENTIRE LIFE AROUND SOMETHING YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO WATCH "at your leisure"
