Was team rolling credits after every episode for years until I found the 'skip intro' and 'next episode' auto-play button on Netflix during a Stranger Things marathon last summer

That auto-play feature cut my 8 season rewatch of The Office down to 3 days instead of 5, has anyone else switched to binging with no pauses between episodes?

Wait, @carr.luna, didn't you skip the intros or just binge without thinking about it?

but did you actually find yourself retaining less of what you watched? because i tried that auto-play chaos with breaking bad and by season 3 i realized i barely remembered who Jesse's girlfriend was or why hank was even after gus. like i was just consuming episodes like they were potato chips and then had to go back and rewatch whole chunks. the office with its 22 minute episodes might be fine but anything with actual plot threads gets fuzzy for me when im not even taking a bathroom break between episodes.

Same thing happened to me with The Wire, @shanes66 had to look up a wiki after every season just to remember who was who.
