Hello Nightfox!

 N>>> ...but many people either have a way to record it or can
 N>>> watch it with on-demand streaming services, so they can
 N>>> watch it any time..

 Og>> Exactly. So that enables the addiction! :D

 N> I was thinking earlier tonight that DVRs and on-demand
 N> streaming could actually make it easier to put off watching
 N> TV for more important things, because the content will be
 N> there for you to watch it any time.  There would be no need
 N> to prioritize it over things that are more important.

And then you end up with a pile of programming that you could  
be tempted to binge watch.  :D

 N> ...but most TV shows only have one episode released each
 N> week.  And these days, many TV shows only have around 10-15
 N> episodes per season (compared to 20+ years ago, when TV
 N> shows commonly had around 25 episodes per season).

So, then you record them all, and binge watch them over an  
evening or weekend and sacrifice family and friends and other  
things.  :(
