Binge watching is when you get so addicted to a TV series(or web series) that you stop caring about the rest of the world, leave all your problems and worries behind and start watching it even when the tingly feeling in your gut keeps telling you "I have deadlines to meet, I should not be doing this". You say to yourself, "this is the last episode I am going to watch today", but, you start watching the next episode before your gut tells you otherwise.
For example, when I started watching Game of Thrones, four seasons were already out and I started watching just because I was bored and had nothing else to do. Once I watched the first episode of the first season, I was hooked onto it like a monkey on a branch. I finished four seasons in two days. That s about fifteen hours of watching in a day.
Here is a meme I found on binge watching.
Lately, I have realised this also happens with random YouTube videos. The suggestion algorithm is so good(It's a bitch actually) that you end up watching totally unconnected videos until your battery runs out or your data cap is reached. If you have broadband and are connected to the mains, GOD SAVE YOU!!!
