I like the ID channel and River Monsters and Ancient Aliens--shows where you don't have to have seen the last episode. Which probably means Netflix or Prime would be good for me because I could binge-watch them all. But I do binge read!

I started with one of the Prey series by John Sandford. And I’m hooked. I can get them all through the library. So far I’m on my 7th with about 18 more to go. I also have Prime but haven’t used it yet to its full potential. A very interesting post and comments. I love the Big Bang Theory and Raymond so I do binge a little on them.
