Binge-Watching

Young Adults Keep Pressing Play

Binge-watching a series is becoming a common way for people to consume TV. According to a Morning Consult/Hollywood reporter poll, young adults between the ages of 18 and 29 were more likely to change their social and personal habits to accommodate a show that they are diving into.

About three-quarters of young adults reported pulling all night-ers to find out what happens to their favorite characters, while only about half of all TV watchers reported engaging in binge-watching to the same extent. About 22 percent of young adults reported watching a show at work. That number roughly doubled for young adults watching a show at work.
