Binge Day: Funniest Things Twitter Users Have Said About Binge-Watching

Over-the-top (OTT) platforms never run out of interesting content these days, no wonder a lot of people sign up for multiple subscriptions and partake in binge-watching marathons on a regular basis.

The process of crushing season after season of shows on these services in one sitting may be exhausting, but people find it fun, especially at a time when staying in and observing social distancing are still recommended in many parts of the world. It's considered a common hobby now — sitting the entire time in front of the monitor while binge-watching prequels, sequels, spinoffs and whatnot.

And thanks to the foreign language series these OTT platforms give people access to, viewers can now easily explore other cultures. These platforms' catalogs include a wide array of genres, too, so buffs who used to go out of their way to watch their favorite shows now swear by Netflix and Hulu, the two dominant streaming services that transformed the world of entertainment.

Indeed, binge-watching shows on OTT platforms is a part of our lives now, so it no longer comes as a surprise that there's an unofficial holiday devoted to this activity. The occasion is called Binge Day, and it is observed on Sept. 25.

To mark this occasion with a touch of humor, here are the funniest things binge-watchers have said about their addiction.
