Ran into an old film buff who made me rethink my whole approach to limited series
I was talking to this guy named Dave at a coffee shop up on 3rd Street. He said slow-burn shows like The Leftovers are meant to be savored over days, not devoured in one sitting. He told me I was missing half the emotional beats by binging too fast. Has anyone else had a chat that changed how they watch shows?

Nodding along because The Leftovers definitely rewards a slower pace.

Honestly, that idea of "savoring over days" hits different when you think about shows like The Leftovers. Ngl, binging probably makes you miss the little details and quiet moments that make the story hit harder. Maybe Dave's onto something about treating a good series more like a novel you read a chapter of each night instead of a movie marathon.
