You might think you binge TV shows extraordinarily fast, but I’m here to tell you that you’re just as much an obsessive couch potato as the rest of us. An article by Danielle Page for NBC News went into some of the details about America’s binging habits, and they’re…not great. A survey by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics concluded that the average American watches approximately 2.7 hours of TV per day. That’s almost 20 hours per week. And, a separate Netflix study “found that 61% of users regularly watch between 2-6 episodes of a show in one sitting”. I don’t know about your binging habits, but these are accurate AF for me.
