8 Emotional Stages Of Binge Watching Explained By Modern Family
Wikia

I’ll start by saying this — I watch a lot of TV. I love lazy days where I can lay in bed with my dog binge-watching a new show, and as we all know, there is no shortage of new shows at our disposal. Hell, I have cable, an Apple TV, and even an Amazon firestick. Subscriptions to Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime. I’m addicted, and I’m cool with that. The process of finding and watching a new show can be a complete rollercoaster of emotions. This article describes those emotions via Modern Family GIFS.

1. Finding a new show to binge

2. Isolation

Being so enthralled in a show that all you want to do is get home to watch another episode.

3. Finally reaching the resolution

4. Realizing that the episode your watching is the finale

5. Desperation

6. Realizing that there are no more seasons

7. Acceptance

8. Finding the next show to binge

While it can be devastating to realize that a show you have loved so deeply over the past 3 days is over, there will always be a new show to ease the pain.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
