I don't know that it would technically be considered binge watching, but Family Affair seasons 1-5.

I watched an episode a day, during my lunch, on workdays.

Modern Family season 10 in a week and Season 11 all of yesterday and today caught up to the most recent episode.

The show really went downhill but I still think it's better than what Big Bang Theorys last few seasons were.

I've been sucked down the 90 Day Fiancé rabbit hole. Wrapped up Season 2 tonight and started in on Season 3.

Babylon 5. I made it through the first season and I got to season 2 (around the 5th episode) and it became more a punishing sit through of a series I've ever sat through in my life. Bad directing, bad acting, bad production values, and glacial pacing can't make up for intelligent writing. Almost all the characters are unpleasant and the two that are entertaining (Londo and G'kar) can't carry the entire series. Not to mention it's view of the future is so goddamned bleak, which might have been cool in the placid 1990s, just makes me want to slit my wrists giving what's happening in this real world in the 2020s. "It gets better! Stick with it!" Not at the expense of my mental health.

Wu Tang American Saga - Was able to check this out thanks to the disney+ bundle. Good show; learned a bunch about the guys I wasn't aware of. I know it's coming back but the first season should have gone a bit further than it did, in case it wasn't picked up for a 2nd. Otherwise, I'll looking forward to S2.

My wife is working her way through Babylon 5, too. She hasn't mentioned any of the problems you noted, but perhaps she's not as discerning as you are. However, we have experienced the dreaded DVD rot problem on one of the discs in the first season. I hate it when that happens.

Hip-Hop Evolution - I just finished up the first episode of season 3. Easily my favorite music documentary of all time. So much info packed in these episodes.

Got through Dexter: Season Four over the course of two days. While I had heard it might've been the best season, I still kind of prefer the first two. That said, this was pretty great, and John Lithgow was excellent as the villain. While I had seen him play slimy characters (and excellently, I should add) in some Brian De Palma films, I still have trouble disconnecting from seeing him as the father in that sitcom of his and the movie, Harry and the Hendersons. Just hearing him shout the word c**t several times was jarring. The plot did get a little over-the-top (you could say that about the entire series, actually), that's just something you have to accept when watching the series. Loved the devastating ending...

Started Season Five but was really disappointed in the first five episodes...Disc Two picks up, and I'm starting to like it a bit more...Hope it finishes on a high-note...

Also have to confess to binging the first two seasons of Home Improvement for like the twentieth time (being stuck self-isolating in the house because of the virus gives you lots of free time; plus, having a slight fever can keep you up at night so it's not unusual to watch an entire season in a row in one sitting)...Just a classic show from when I was a kid and it never seems to get old for me. To me, this is a great family sitcom that appeals to adults as well as children. Love the interaction between Tim and Al, and Patricia Richardson is simply perfect as Jill...the kids are also all pretty solid until around the fifth season, when they get progressively annoying as their egos seemed to grow and their characters were given ridiculous storylines at times...

After this season of Dexter, I hope to finally start and finish Season One of Battlestar Galactica. I watched that three or four hour opening movie twice now but never followed up with the actual series. Hopefully this changes now that I have some additional free time...

I’m ABOUT to go on another TPB binge, such binges, for me, edging into double-digit territory, but times call for it ....

Maybe go whole hog, and start with the B/W short in which Ricky and Julian are ‘pet assassins’! :)

I think a lot of us are about go start binge watching this or that since we are going to have t-t-t-too much time on our hands. Man in the High Castle is on my list.

Dexter: Season Five. Kind of sucked...way worse than the previous several seasons. Stiles was just plain bad and Dexter seemed off-character...Just really felt this one was lacking...Oh well...I had heard that the show got worse in its latter seasons (like most shows)...Just didn't expect such a major drop-off...

McMillions
Started last night and finished up this morning. Was surprised at how they pulled off the scam at the end. Really good Doc series but it felt like this should've been one movie instead of stretching out.
