Longest stretch you've watched one tv show?


Yesterday I had food poisoning And ended up watching Psych from 10:00 AM until 3:00 AM. So 17 hours.

reply

Actually watched it or had it on? I think I may have done about 6 hours of For All Mankind. That's the most I've ever actively "binged" a show. I've had the Lord of the Rings extended additions play back to back to back one time but I really didn't sit and watch them, they were just background noise.

I know the show is hated, but I love Three's Company and once saw 10 back-to-back episodes and I don't regret a second.

reply

Why is the show hated?

reply

People think the comedy aims low and the storylines lack creativity. Are you a fan?

reply

I liked it back in the day I was just a kid and saw re runs mostly. I liked the original British version too “Man about the house”.

I recall the Brit one being more mature.

reply

I saw it a lot as a kid too from reruns. I was too young to remember when it aired live but I still love it now.

reply

With threes company, as a kid did you like the blonde more but now as an adult you prefer the brunette?

reply

Blonde always.

Signed, million man.

Yikes!

I liked Three’s Company!
I’ll challenge you to a dart game for a pitcher of beer down at the Regal Beagle.

reply

Maybe afterward we could pick up some chrysanthemums at the flower shop and stop by Jack's Bistro to pick up the money Larry owes me.

reply

Man About The House is a thousand times funnier. John Ritter's comedy just isn't for me.

reply

I haven't seen the British version.

I watched Band of Brothers in one day when I was bedridden with gout lol.

reply

Sorry to hear that, I know a couple of tough fellas with the gout and it’s just damned awful for them.

Band Of Brothers was an all time great series.

You possibly have seen The Pacific, if not you should watch it. It’s equally as good and holy cow, it’s frightening what those Marines went through fighting the Japanese!

They say one well armed troop could capture ten Germans but ten troops couldn’t capture one Japanese guy.
They hardly ever surrendered.

It took a Fat Man and a Little Boy to calm them down.
We are very friendly now with Japan.

reply

It's fine. Cutting out beer pretty much solved it.

The Pacific is great. I've also read Eugene Sledge and Robert Leckies books.

reply

Glad to hear it.
Damn…beer! I’m lucky to not have the gout, I guzzle beer like the planet is running out of it lol.

I need to get my hands on those books, I’ve been plowing through Stephen King stuff lately and need to get back to history reading.
Thanks for the Author names, I’ll Amazon those this week👍

reply

Sledges book is by far the best (With the Old Breed.) It really opened my eyes up about what those guys went through in the Pacific Theater.

reply

I appreciate the heads up, I’ve got to get through a King novel and a bio on Motley Crue and then the Sledge and Leckie books will be next.

Thanks.

reply

I DON'T KNOW...HOURS AND HOURS I'M SURE...I OFTEN POWER WATCH ALL NINE SEASONS OF THE OFFICE...IT IS MY HEART.

reply

I can't come close to 17 hours, but I've watched full seasons of Shetland and Inspector Lewis, 6 hours each.

reply

Dark Shadows, since 1966 I think. Still on streaming.

reply

Yeah, that sounds about right. For me it was probably closer to 20 hours. I think it was when I was rewatching 24. I tried to watch a whole season in one sitting.

reply

I binged the entire GOT for the second time, got so much more out of it than the first time, that was a lotta hours.

In doing so, I found that the ending made a lot more sense than it did the first time. Think I started a thread about this awhile back.
