We all know what it’s like when you try to get your friends into a show you’ve been watching, but they just can’t get into it. Well, that is no longer is an issue thanks to Netflix, who recently did a study on their most popular binge-worthy shows.
While this data doesn’t show the exact moment that a fan becomes hooked, it shows the exact episode that about 70% of fans went on to complete the first season of a show. Our friends haven’t been getting into these shows because apparently no one gets hooked from the pilot episode. We have to tell them to keep watching, and they’ll be hooked by this specific episode. Once they finish that episode, they will most likely have a new obsession, and will need to keep going until the end.
Now, this isn’t foolproof, but the odds are very high that if your friends and family keep watching until they reach these episodes, then you’ll most likely have a new person to obsess with.
