The 2x speed habit nearly ruined the last season for me
I used to watch everything at 1.5x or 2x speed to get through my backlog faster, but last week I forced myself to watch season 3 of The Bear at normal speed. The pacing and the silence between lines actually hit way harder, and I caught a plot detail I completely missed the first time. Has anyone else tried slowing down after binging too fast, or is that just my brain being weird?
You missed plot details at 2x speed because it's basically background noise at that point, not because the show is some deep masterpiece. Good for you for slowing down, but The Bear isn't exactly high art that demands full attention.
