Me: I want to watch this movie, but I don't think I can commit 90 minutes of attention to it.

Also me: Binge watches six, hour-long episodes instead.

100%, especially if I’m watching a show I’ve seen before. Currently watching Parks and Rec for the… 10th time?

There’s something about having an out at any time with the shorter episodes. I know that I’m easily distracted but won’t miss something, because I’ve seen it before. Watching a movie takes a lot more effort because I want to give the movie the attention it deserves, and there aren’t clear intermissions.
