Binging shows is one of the reasons why we live in the entertainment hellscape that we have. When everything is instant gratification, it means less and it's less enjoyable. Wait a week for the next episode creates excitement and ultimately more joy over the several year period it'll take you to finish watching the show. The same goes for people. You're more likely to have fond feelings for the person you've known all your life rather than the person you sat next to on the bus for a couple hours.
