Giving shows a three-episode chance changed my binge game

I used to stop watching if a show started slow. After trying three episodes before quitting, I found hidden gems perfect for binging. It's a better way to pick what to watch.

Actually, some need a whole season!

Three episodes is still a lot of time to waste on something you're not into. There are too many good shows out there to force yourself through a slow start. I'd rather drop it fast and find something that hooks me right away.

Ever consider some shows need even more time to click?

Used to think shows had to grab me right away but christopher_scott34 is right about needing a full season for some stuff. Totally changed my mind on that.
