I said to myself every time I watched Stranger Things that if I want to skip this intro, I might as well kill myself.

The intro for that Santa Clarita Diet show is less than 5 seconds yet that button still pops up for a second, like what kind of an asshole actually wants that feature?

Although the worst thing about Netflix today is that autoplaying trailer shit. Like I can't just relax and browse through things because if I hover for a couple seconds, it'll start playing the stupid ass fake trailer and it's annoying as all hell.

This seems like a conclusion big data would reach.

When people sit down to binge watch a show and consistently just skip intros to get into the episode, it becomes a clear signal that there is a demand for a skip intro function in the platform. So why not just program it?

I have someone on Facebook who will post about what they're watching and I just can't even comprehend it. She started watching Gray's Anatomy on there, it had to be less than 3 months ago. Yet she's already through that whole series. All caught up and now watching it when it airs.

So that's 13 seasons of like 25 episodes of an hour show each. I can't even fucking comprehend watching that in an entire year. To be such an absolute slug with nothing to do all day that you could watch all that in a few months is so insane.

Its a nice idea but they really need a binge mode. After the episode ends skip the credits, have a 3 second countdown to the next episode, then skip the intro of the next episode.

After work each day you could easily fit in 5-6 episodes plus weekends.

You certainly could. Maybe not if you have some shitty garbage tier job that requires you to work 12-14 hours a day but for people that have nice jobs they can. If a person gets home at 3pm and goes to bed at 10 pm why can't they watch 4-5 45 minute shows in that time?? (Not that I personally do this, I just don't feel like it, but I could)
