Remember when you had to wait a whole week for the next episode?

I tried rewatching an old show from 2005 the way it first aired, one episode a week. It felt so slow and I kept forgetting small details. Then I binged a new show with my sister over a weekend and got totally pulled into the story. The whole thing felt like one big movie. Does anyone else find it hard to go back to weekly shows now?

Totally get that feeling. Tried the same thing with a show from my college days and just lost the thread. Binging really does glue the whole story together in your head.

Disagree on the binging thing honestly. Watching week to week lets you sit with each episode, you know? Like with Better Call Saul, half the fun was spending seven days picking apart a single scene online. Binge it all at once and those small moments just blur together into one long movie you forget by next month.
