Welcome to the modern television paradise! With just a swipe, I can access a vast array of shows and movies. Each day, I discover more about how to make the most of this incredible platform. Here are three distinct ways to indulge in Netflix.
1. Binge-Watching
Binge-watching is the art of consuming several episodes of a series in one go or even finishing an entire season in one marathon session. This method is perfect for diving into a show you’ve been meaning to check out, revisiting a beloved classic, or catching up on a series right before the new season launches. My personal binge-watching journey includes shows like Gilmore Girls, Parenthood, 24, Revolution, Downton Abbey, and Twin Peaks. Some of these have been revisited multiple times! I only wish I’d experienced Lost in this manner, but the thought of rewatching it feels overwhelming.
2. Purge-Watching
This term is relatively new to me! I first encountered it in an article that compared it to being “pot-committed” in poker—once you’ve invested enough time, you feel compelled to finish. My first experience with purge-watching came while enduring Star Trek: Enterprise, the low point of the Star Trek universe. I was relieved when it was canceled, freeing me from the obligation to watch. More recently, I found myself purge-watching The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. I adore the comedic genius of Tina Fey, and Ellie Kemper never fails to entertain; however, as the series progressed, it felt more like a lackluster sketch than a coherent show. By the end, I was watching just to say I made it through.
3. Hate-Watching
I had no idea this phenomenon had a name until I started doing it. I found myself hate-watching The Newsroom for a while, but it eventually became too frustrating to continue. While there were moments of brilliance, the overarching issues—such as sexism and overzealous writing—drove me to turn it off. Yet, there’s one show I still hate-watch: America’s Next Top Model. I started out enjoying the absurdity of models dealing with ridiculous challenges, but over time, I became entranced by Tyra Banks’ outrageous antics and the parade of contestants who seemed to consider themselves role models simply for being on TV. I can’t help but watch every episode, even though I miss the original judging panel and the wit of Jay Manuel. I loathe it, yet I can’t look away.
In conclusion, there’s a place for all types of viewing experiences in my life. I embrace binge-watching, purge-watching, and even hate-watching with equal enthusiasm.
