Seriously, daniel_williams47 nailed it about being glued to the screen. When you mainline a show like that, you stop seeing the story in chunks and just live in its world. That's exactly why @ruby804 is right about the villain getting likable. Your brain starts seeing everything from their point of view for hours straight because you never hit pause to remember normal people stuff. It totally warps your sense of who's okay and who isn't. The lines get blurry fast when you don't take a break between moral choices.
@wyattm67, getting lost in snacks and episodes happens to the best of us. One more chip turns into the whole bag while you're glued to the screen. Ever wonder why stopping feels so hard?
