Title: Binge watching
Post by: ajamimajida on December 01, 2019, 12:34:36 pm
If you had a choice of binge watching an old show, what show would you like to watch a marathon?

Mine beverly hills 90210.  I never missed an episode and would love to watch it again and again.

sorry to say I don't binge watch old shows.  I think if I could I would watch Carol Burnette but not Momma's Family episodes.

It depends by how far back old is for some people but I would like binge watch McGuyver. The idea that this guy could invent really helpful things out of the blue with minuscule items really fascinates me!

I'm binge watching Laugh-In now.  I love watching the old shows!  So much of the stuff went over my head when I watched it when I was young.

I have watched all of Downton Abbey twice over. The first time I just watched it once a week on TV but the second time I binge-watched the whole thing all over again. Loved that show.

There's a lot of shows I want to binge-watch but I've just been too busy lately.

 I have watched The Office (US -- all the seasons) many times now in binge sessions, and I still laugh every time!  Another show I could binge watch would be The Andy Griffith Show, but I somehow never get around to watching it. It was such a great, wholesome show full of sweet, hilarious characters! I'm going to have to look it up and watch it again today!  :peace:

I find it funny that the two shows I actually have binge watched were both mentioned in earlier thread comments. I binged all but the final season (because it wasn't out yet) of Downton Abbey when I was laid up at home after a surgical procedure. A while later, I wanted to watch a comedy and I binged The Office. I've since binged a couple other shows, but I think those were the first two that I literally marathoned.


Downton and Office were both first time viewings for me when I binged them. I could easily binge any of the seasons of Fargo, but I enjoy that show so much that I almost always watch it first run as it aires, so I was unable to binge watch it.



If I had to pick an old show to binge - it's hard to narrow it down to just one, but I'd probably pick Cheers.

A while ago I got a Netflix account so I could binge watch the show "Lost".  I had always wanted to see it but when it was originally on regularly it was a night that I worked so I never got to see it.

Chicago med would be good to binge watch. They only show the latest episodes. House is another one did watch a few it's on my cable channel. Maybe doing more.

Interestingly enough, two of the shows I wouldn't mind binging were already mentioned on the thread.  I think I would like to watch the original Dallas and also Laugh-In again.  I have fond memories of both shows, probably because I was much younger! I rarely missed one of these shows!! Dallas was intriguing and Laugh-In was a hoot!

We have watching Veronica Mars ( a made for Hulu Series), since our son is visiting from Alaska and he doesn't have Internet (let alone Hulu), so we watched two or three episodes a night.

Geesh I feel old because most of the shows mentioned I remember very well and used to watch them. 

Two shows I  did not mention but would love to binge watch is Three stooges and little rascals.  That was the first we did after school watch both back to back.

This past holiday weekend, my husband and I binge watched "Friends."  I don't think we could find a better show to binge watch!  The writing was superb and the delivery of the characters was spot on.  I'll never get tired of watching that show, and I see something different every time!
