Supernatural

Lately, I've been really into the show, Supernatural. Right now, I'm up to the eleventh episode of season three, which means that I've seen 54 episodes, which are around 40 minutes each. That means that I've spent 2160 minutes, or 36 hours, watching Supernatural over the past week. It has been so bad that while I was at my cabin I would wake up at nine or so and immediately start watching Supernatural, then, if it was ten at night and I was still awake with nothing to do, I would watch another episode. It's become almost like an obsession, but the dependence isn't quite as deep as other shows I've watched. When I was binge-watching shows like Doctor Who or How I Met Your Mother (both of which began in 2005, like Supernatural), I would actually spend twelve hours a day watching the television and I physically would not want to get up to do anything else. With Supernatural, I can take a break whenever I want, and I suppose that's healthier. I don't think it has anything to do with the show's quality, and there is plenty of suspense, but I find that I'm able to delay myself in going back to the show. If I continue at the same rate, I might be able to finish all nine seasons by the end of the school year.
