Wow, that's weird. I rewatch shows all the time, especially my favorites. I can never just say, "Well that was a good show but I don't think I'll watch it again."
What is the point of watching things if you don't plan on rewatching them? |

The only reason I rewatch something is if I'd like to focus on other aspects of the film besides the main plot.

So you guys don't even rewatch shows you know you liked or loved? I mean here's a small sample of shows I rewatch regularly:
1. Original TMNT cartoon I marathon every 3 years or so, but I've seen every ep countless times as a kid so I'm not counting this. 2. I've rewatched the TMNT 2k3 series at least 5 times. 3. I just rewatched all of Nick TMNT a second time, so I've seen every ep twice. 4. I rewatched the entire DCAU every few years. Seen B:TAS episodes countless times, rewatched Superman, Batman Beyond and Justice League all at least 4 times. 5. I rewatched the 2003 Teen Titans cartoon at least 4 times. 6. I rewatch classic era Simpsons (Seasons 1-10) countless times, although I'm due for another rewatch. 7. Rewatched X-men Evolution 4 times, Wolverine and the X-men twice, Avengers: EMH twice. 8. Rewatch some anime as a kid like Dragonball Z, Pokemon, etc. many times. (And these shows have hundreds of eps) 9. Rewatched Garogoyles at least 5 times the whole way through. 10. Rewatched all of Futurama around 3 times. And this is just a small sample. I can't never imagine rewatching shows I liked in the future. |

It's especially difficult when a show is more than 100 episodes since it requires investment over a long period of time if you're only watching 1 episode per day or to marathon it in a weekend and do nothing productive that's why I secretly dread long shows and look on wikipedia for shows cancelled after one or two seasons. I then complain that I would've loved for this show to have had more episodes
This way I've discovered amazing obscure cartoons, so it's good. And if they're awful then at least they're only 13 episodes or so. I like re-watching stuff but 3 years apart? that's too soon, I'd get tired of it. I love Jurassic Park, my favorite movie but I don't let myself re-watch it more than once every 3 years, and that's only one movie and my favorite one, so other franchises have to wait a little longer. Also with the shows form my childhood that I want to re-watch / old shows I never watched / new shows that are coming out and my limited time, my queue only gets longer and longer. I've been meaning to re-watch Mighty Max again since it's been ten years but I keep bumping it and bumping it and no, not doing the 1.5x speed~! Obviously as a kid I re-watched shows a lot. |

Whenever I rewatch things I just skip to the part I like, I rarely watch the whole thing

I usually only watch 4 eps a day of whatever show I'm watching, and even with a schedule like that I manage to completely finishing rewatching shows in a month or less. Only a few shows I watch have 100 episodes or more, and even then it doesn't take much more than 2-3 months to rewatch it.
Back in 2015 I rewatched all of Dragonball/Dragonball Z and the movies/specials to prepare myself for Super and I did it all in about 4 months I think. And that's like 400+ something episodes. |

I wrote a term paper for a media class on the Alien movies and ended up marathoning them a couple of times. I also covered the 2014 video game Alien: Isolation is my analysis and played through the main game and two of the DLC campaigns.

CyberCubed has stated numerous times before that he does have a job, and I believe him. I mean he is a 32 year old man. How else would he survive? He's been on welfare since he left College or something? Dunno if I believe him when he says he plays a ton of games and watches stuff everyday. Either he barely sleeps or he exaggerates about the stuff he watches and plays just to get more "nerd cred"

Oh good Lord.... I feel sorry for any co-worker that brings up the Turtles in any way, shape or form. Especially if during the Bay era he happened to overhear one of his co-workers say something like 'Oh yeah, we're gonna watch Ninja Turtles this weekend, it looks awesome!' He was probably biting his tongue as to not jump in and correct them.
