Let's discuss why you shouldn't binge watch tv.
1. Short term memory vs. long term memory. It's like cramming for a test to make a B- and then forget everything the next day
2. Tv shows aren't written that way. You need time to let the episode sit. Give yourself time to think and develop an opinion on it.
3. Go outside and have some fun. I don't know.
24 is a great example of why you shouldn't binge watch tv. Someone gets shot at the end of episode 3 and then they're carried away by the EMT at the beginning of episode 4. If this is happening in real time, then that just can't happen. Also Jack Bauer can't navigate through Los Angeles, New York, and Washington DC without running into any traffic, have 10-15 life or death fights a day and never have to eat, piss or drink a red bull!
