“Netflix knows the exact episode of a TV show that gets you hooked. A sample:
- Bloodline — Episode 4
- Breaking Bad — Episode 2
- Grace & Frankie — Episode 4
- House of Cards — Episode 3
- Mad Men — Episode 6
- Orange is the New Black — Episode 3
- Sons of Anarchy — Episode 2
- Suits — Episode 2
- The Blacklist — Episode 6
- The Walking Dead — Episode 2
The episode that Netflix names as the “hooked” episode is the global average, but it found some local variations. “The Dutch, for instance, tend to fall in love with series the fastest, getting hooked one episode ahead of most countries irrespective of the show.” On the other hand, “members in Australia and New Zealand [got] hooked one to two episodes later than the rest of the world on almost every show.”

I’m a total outlier. The only TV Series I’ve watched in the last couple of years is Welcome to Sweden 😉
Too much time out with Ospreys will do it. You’ve made a (much) better trade.
Not addicted to Netflix but on TNT it’s Major Crimes for me….
Netflix, TNT – same Planet!
How many times have I said this before clicking to the next episode. Breaking Bad may have been the most addictive series.
Lulu, I’m with you….
Uhmmm, and at what episode do Italians get hooked ?? There must be some Dutch blood running in my veins, I guess. 😉
Stefania, I believe I have Dutch in my blood type too…
The only series that got me hooked was Lost, but hooked I was. I’ve watched the whole series twice and a thrid viewing is not outside the realm of possibilities.
Laughing. Me too.
Have you watched all of those?
Not sure I understand the question.
(Note to Self: “Say Yes, she pounces on me. Say No, she doesn’t believe me.”)
Hahaha…so to avoid EVERYTHING, you say that you’re not sure you understand the question. You’re the guy who gave me a bad time about watching Breaking Bad…and I moved from that on to Sons of Anarchy. And I’ll leave it at that.
And you road me on the Creepy Woman, the Witchy Woman and I’m sure others that I’ve tried to block.
Wait…Witchy Woman??? Have I missed something? Is that Creepy Woman’s sister?
Smells like revisionist history.
they have it down to a fine science to maintain us as Spectators! lure us in, keep us guessing and invested into the characters’ lives.
They sure do…
I watch so little TV, but my middle daughter has got me hooked on the Netflix series, Peaky Blinders. As a matter of fact, she is getting te next episode now.
I too watched Peaky Blinders and loved it. (And watched it in a Binge-weekend)
Just finished the last episode of the first series I’m watching one at a time, always with my daughter, who is 25
Okidoki Mr Kanigan. The Aussies here down under, are so busy in the great outdoors, swimming, running, and surfing… We don’t really have time to watch such trivial addictive shows. Hence the results. Ha 😛😎😎☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️
I was so waiting for that.
Ha had to say it twice ha xx
Hence the Results. FUNNY!
Ha ha Yes it’s true I can’t fight that !!!
Or, like the plow horse stumbling out of the gate, the horse may just be slow to take the bit.
Ok let’s not get mean now! I’m off to the beach. ☀️☀️🌈
Don’t be mean! Here’s the thing, I am actually at the beach as we speak ha so forgive me if I’m accidently sending these comments more than once. It’s the blinding sun☀️☀️🌈🌈

Where is your Like button 🙂 Thanks and Love, nia

I’m addicted to American Ninja Warrior though I watch it the old fashioned way–one week at a time. Did you watch the video about the fight scene in Daredevil at the end of the article? It was interesting and this line stuck with me, “violence takes a toll on everyone, even the ones who win”.
I’ve never seen American Ninja Warrior…but love the quote.
The only show I binge-watched was Lost…just to catch up to the madness after I missed the first year. I can see how easy it would be to get “lost” in many of the above series. My daughter doesn’t get cable TV, and seems to do this all the time. It’s the way of that generation. ☺
Oh, and do I ever get lost.
I’ve heard of some of them..never watched any of them…never watched anything on Netflex. I heard some football playing in the background today..someone who lives here has made me the aka: football widow..sports widow, yup. .. 😉
Smiling.
Commitment issues
Ha!
