Do you spend hours in front of the TV, maybe days? Did you ever want to chat with other Binge Watchers or ask people for suggestions or maybe just review the season you watched. Books, Movies, Reviews, Oh My! and Because Reading had the perfect idea, why not get all of us binge watchers together? BUT, we want this to be unique so there is no template, no set way to do it. You can do the post however you want. Here are a few examples of what you can post about.
- Did you just Binge Watch a series and now have book recommendations?
- Make a poll to have others pick what you should watch.
- Write a review of the season you watched or an entire series. You can even do one episode at a time.
- Make a post that tells people what you plan to watch, what you already watched and what you are currently watching.
The choice is yours be unique, different and do it however you want THEN come back to either Because Reading or Books, Movies, Reviews, Oh My! and link up your post EVERY OTHER WEEK. This will be a once every other week post. That gives you time to binge watch and not have to come up with a post every week, especially if real life got in the way and you weren’t able to binge watch anything. Don’t forget to visit other peoples posts, you never know if something they watched will be your next favorite show.
Also make sure to use the Hashtag #Bingewatchersclub so we can chat on twitter too.

I’m joining in and my first binge post is about the ‘reigning’ show on HBO…..
GAME
OF
THRONES
I started binging this show because I couldn’t take it anymore. I knew I was missing the show of all shows. So many people were watching it. I felt like the only one who wasn’t.
From the opening scene where the gate is raised at the north wall and the men of the Night’s Watch ride out I was hooked. The majesty of the scene was so dramatic. Watching this on my big screen TV, I felt like I was standing outside the gates waiting for the riders to approach me.
In two weeks I binged this show and am now on Season Seven, Episode 6. With only two more episodes and a year to wait until the last season, yes the eighth season is the end of the show, I’m left dreading the end and dying to know what happens.
The character’s were larger than life. The scenes literally took my breath away. And I don’t think, no – I know, I’ve never felt so strongly towards a story. I wept, laughed, felt the character’s triumphs, their fears. I covered my eyes at some traumatic scenes and quickly uncovered them as I didn’t want to miss a thing.
And I felt a loathing for some of the diabolical characters like I’ve never felt before. What tore me up was hating them but kind of understanding what drove them to do the things they did. In a certain scene in the second episode of season seven, I was yelling out loud for a character to die and then felt relief when he managed to survive. How gloriously twisted is that!
Before I go I have to mention them……the dragons. Oh lordy, are they magnificent. They remind of dinosaurs, lizards, and serpents all rolled into one stunning beast. With my surround sound cranked way up, I felt the thunder of their landings, heard the wind passing under their wings, and their mighty roars would have shook the rafters if I had any!
LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!
Got my eye on this Funko figure of Daenerys riding Drogon. So cute!

So, what are you binging right now.
Got any recommendations for me?

Thanks so much for visiting fuonlyknew!
You can find a list of my reviews HERE.
I know everyone raves about this show but it has just never interested me in the least, so I might be the only one who hasn’t watched it…lol. Glad to have you binge watching with us!! 🙂
I felt like I was going to jump out of my skin so many times, Stormi! I ate this up!
I am so addicted to GoT! I only watched it last October and I binged seasons one to six and loved it! I love the tons of humour, the deaths that make you cry like a baby, the dramatic fight scenes, the amazing acting and those characters! GRRM has written characters that you love or hate one minute and then you feel the opposite about them in the next season. Characters fall from grace and characters get evil but there is also great redemption arcs. Add in dire wolves, dragons and ice zombies and you have tv gold!
You said it so well. OMG The end of this season. Glorious!
So glad you finally jumped on the bandwagon. The show really is awesome and I’m so saddened that the season is over already. You are right about the dragons and the scenery – stunning. I haven’t seen that FUNKO before but you are right, it is VERY tempting!
I already have several more posts ready! This is fun:) I like the idea of every other week too. I can do my Kid’s Korner posts on the off weeks. GOT is like nothing I’ve seen before. Fabulous!
Stormi, you are not alone. I have not watched it either.

Take a vacation for a week or so and come here, Sherry. We’ll watch it together. LOL I know you’ll love it!
Oh, I need that Funko toy right now!
Aren’t they too cute:)
That Funko is awesome! Glad you’re enjoying Game of Thrones!!! Welcome to the madness 🙂
Yep. I’ve joined the game! That Funko is cute, but the price tag. Yikes!
I’m about to buy the first 6 seasons for Himself for his birthday as he’s decided he wants to watch the whole lot. So we, too, will be joining the rest of the planet with watching this one:)
Yippee! I’d say be prepared, but there’s no being prepared for what happens in this show, Sarah!
