2 seasons per month? I started watching The Sopranos this week, I watched 1.5 seasons over the weekend.

Sure, but do you actually do this every weekend?

I mean obviously there are people that consume a lot more movie entertainment than the average, but I'm personally getting nowhere close to 70 seasons per year.

Bingewatching occasionally might not be enough to economically justify your subscriptions.

Even if he does do it every weekend, most of us don't. So the rest of us can accept the math.

Fair enough. I don't know how often I do it.
