With the shows on netflix etc do you plough through all the episodes before watching another series , or do you, like the lady who does my cleaning , watch an episode of series A and then watch an episode of several other series before going to watch another episode of series A?

Yeah, I binge watch. Once I get into a series, I can't stop until I finish it.

Nah, I don't see the point of online streaming networks.

I tend to rather finish a series before watching another but my girlfriend mixes things up.

It really just depends, sometimes I focus on one show and watch it to completion quickly. And sometimes I have various shows I am kind of watching so I switch between them depending on what I am in the mood for I guess.

I have been watching the new David Attenborough narrated documentary, but I mean it is kind of sad because it has a bigger focus on how climate change and human activity is interfering with wildlife and habitats...Its a great show but can be a lot to take in so I haven't been able to watch that all at once. But I did just watch the last game of thrones season within 3 days, of course that is not as real world as David Attenborough's new documentary though it certainly does seem to reflect the human condition.

On the odd occasions I watch a series I tend to binge the whole lot in one go. If it is a fictional drama series though I have to read up on the plot and ending before I start as I like to know exactly what happens in advance.
