Learned that Breaking Bad actually gets more binge watched than The Office on Netflix

I was looking up show stats last week on some random data site and found out Breaking Bad has a crazy high binge completion rate compared to most shows. Like over 85% of people who start it finish the whole series within a month. I always assumed The Office or Friends would win that stat since everyone throws those on for background noise. But Breaking Bad pulls people in way harder because of the cliffhangers and pacing. Has anyone else seen numbers like this for other shows?

Oh totally, that completion rate stat you mentioned really shows how different the binge watching experience is between those two shows. Breaking Bad is like a fast moving train you can't get off, while The Office is more like comfort food you dip in and out of.

Pick the one with a slower pace then save the intense one for when you've got time to actually finish it.
