Rewatching Lost made me appreciate weekly drops again.

Used to hate the wait, now it builds the hype.

Yeah I'm totally with you on that. I used to binge everything the second it dropped, but now it feels so hollow. Having a week to sit with an episode, talk about it with friends, even just let it breathe in your head, that's the good stuff. The whole show becomes an event instead of just background noise. Binging just turns great stories into disposable content, you know? I miss when TV felt like a shared experience.

Honestly, binging lets you dive deep without losing the thread. I get @angelamason's point about weekly hype, but my life is too chaotic for appointment TV. Bingeing a show like Dark in one go kept the complex plot straight in my head. We had a watch party and solved puzzles together in real time. That felt way more shared than waiting seven days for everyone to catch up.
