Who Doesn't Watch all the Episodes in One Go?

This show is really good it would be hard to wait for another episode. Does anyone pace themselves when they watch this show?

Why? do you not go on Facebook, and YouTube. I don't use Facebook, but I would be scared of major spoilers. YouTube has spoiled many shows for me ,and I wasn't even looking for anything. It's not like normal TV. Where you just have to stay caught up with the current episode of the show.

yeah some times spoilers don't faze you that bad but some I have had happen to me have ruined the enjoyment of not knowing till it happened. and ruined the season of the spoiled show.

you will watch 3 episodes when you get to episode seven right or will you save the season finale to watch by it's self?

I had to watch a few episodes a day due to other commitments, but if I had the time, I would watch them all in one go.

I had the day off Friday. I always assumed season 2 would drop on Halloween, since that's what they were saying since the Super Bowl commercial aired, but there it was on the 27th. This coming week I wouldn't have had the time to binge. Once I got into the show on Friday though, that was that. I had no reason to stop and didn't feel like it. Great stuff! If we could stream programming from the future I'd go through all the remaining seasons pretty fast. Part of me is glad I can't.

Heck no! I watched them all in one sitting. It was way too good I couldn't stop watching. I've watched Season 2 twice already.

I was thinking of starting Season 1 over but just had to watch Season 2 twice. I'll need to do Season 1 after.

Watched 2 on Friday, 2 on Saturday, and the last 5 on Sunday. I loved the first half and was truly disappointed in the second half though, so that approach may have put my expectations in the wrong frame of mind.

It's very tempting to binge watch lol. but I always limit myself to 1-2 episodes per day! Mainly due to my extremely busy schedule.

Sometimes you can't ignore real life, for sure. But Stranger Things is one of those shows that sucks you into a different world, and when you binge watch the experience is different (better, for me) than watching in small doses.

Releasing the episodes on Thursdays at midnight definitely messes people up if they have to work on Friday. I watched a few episodes in the wee hours Thursday night, and was then a total zombie at work on Friday. Took a short nap after work, then powered through the rest of the season on Friday night. Yes, it was a little crazy. But when you go full immersion into 1984 Hawkins like that it grips you a little better.

Because Stranger Things was released in the summer, we could watch two episodes per day over four days.

Stranger Things 2 was released during the school year, so my daughter could not watch every night. It took us two weeks to complete it this season.
