Our class discussion on Thursday really hit home with me, as I am probably one of the worst binge watchers there are. I can remember being introduced to Dexter and Breaking Bad about a year or so ago, and I would have those shows either (1) finished or (2) caught up to where the actual show was. It is also something I thought would never happen either, because I always thought my friends were crazy, or the ones who at least binge watched.
I also really didn't fully understand the concept of the shows I binge watch versus the shows I do not binge watch. Stevie brought it up in class and we discussed as a class why we binge watch certain shows and it really took me by surprise. When I say surprise, I mean I never really thought it through. I personally just watch some of these shows because I find them overly entertaining but also making you WANT to watch the next show. I do love Pawn Stars, American Pickers, and other shows like that but they never really leave you "hanging" at the end, which is what I personally think is the biggest difference.
By far Breaking Bad is my favorite show of all time and I finished all five seasons in one weekend. I don't know how I did it but I pulled it off. Walter White and company....what a show! I still go back and watch old episodes like crazy. Maybe I will binge watch again??
