Showerthought: putting my shows on 1.25x speed got me through 4 seasons in 9 days
I had a pile of shows sitting in my watchlist for almost a year because every episode felt like a chore to get through. A coworker told me she speeds up the slow parts, so I tried 1.25x on a drama I kept quitting, and suddenly I was finishing 3 episodes a night on my couch in Fresno. Now I fly through the boring middle stuff but slow it back to normal for big scenes, especially finales. It feels a little wrong, like I'm cheating the show somehow. Has anyone else messed with playback speed, or does that ruin it for you?
