Too much binging? Or too little?

I watch the show as it airs. I've binged each season after the season finale also. And I've done an all 3 seasons binge as well.

After last night's episode, I know that I'm going to do an all 4 seasons binge when it is over.

Is this normal or very strange? I have episodes downloaded so that I have them at hand even if I lose net access. I have copies on every desktop and laptop in the house in secret caches the way a person might hide something illicit/explicit.

How many times have you guys binged this series?

I feel like I'm going to become some weirdo who watches this every year long into the future. Like having a traditional Black Sails Binge Week.

Which sounds fun.

Clever people will recognize and tolerate nothing but cleverness.

When I really love a show I watch the episode again several times during the week waiting for the next. Dont think I have ever binged an entire show after it finishes, though, but I don't really like binge watching so much.

I don't think it makes you weird for bingeing a show for years to come. It's great you found a show you love so much.

It doesnt make you weird people do that with the shows they really love.

I've done the same thing with this show, game of thrones, Lucifer, blacklist...I'm rewatching sex and the city right now. The Lucifer intro is my message notification and I keep every episode on my phone (and on several sd cards in case something happens). I go through phases of which shows I watch the most. I hope it doesn't make you crazy, because if you're crazy I'm plain guano!

I only have a 32 SD card on my phone and it's mostly music. Every now and then I get the urge to delete the music.

The only reason I haven't is because it's so disorganised, I won't be able to get them back again... I'm still tempted.

But I feel easier about it now. Thanks.

I have about 20 sd cards ranging from 8 to 64 gigs and they are all full of music, books, pictures and shows/movies. A lot of them double because I'll switch one out and want my favorites back so I redownload them. My cards are all a hot mess!

Nah, I agree this show is THAT good. I just rewatched the whole series prior to watching the s4 premiere as well. I had the same affliction back in '08 with the Dark Knight.
