Finished a 40 episode series in 3 days and I feel weird about it
I started watching "The Lost Mines" on a Thursday night thinking I'd watch one episode. By Sunday morning I had binged the whole thing and my sleep schedule was Trashed. I learned that I really can't handle slow burn shows because I just want to know what happens next. Has anyone else accidentally ruined their weekend this way?

That Logan fella sounds like he learned his lesson the hard way. I did something similar with a show called "The Night Shift" a few years back. Stayed up until 3am three nights in a row and by the end of it I couldn't tell you half the character names. My wife came downstairs one morning and found me asleep on the couch with the remote still in my hand. Now I try to set a hard limit at three episodes per night, but that rule goes out the window real fast when a show really hooks you.

Had a buddy who did the exact same thing with "Echo Point." Started it on a Friday night and by Monday he was calling into work "sick" because he stayed up till 5am finishing it. He said his eyes were bloodshot and he couldn't even remember what happened in the last 10 episodes because he was so sleep deprived. Now he refuses to watch anything with more than 10 episodes at a time.
