Methodology
- Eden’s Gate were keen to discover just how long it would take to binge watch the best TV shows of all time.
- In order to do so, Eden’s Gate utilised an existing IMDb list ranking the top TV shows based on ratings. 67 TV shows were extracted.
- To ensure a fair approach and measurement for “bingeing,” Eden’s Gate removed all series that had only one season to date, as well as any children’s and or documentaries.
- Thereafter, each TV show was input into Tiii.me, an online tool to calculate time spent to watch all seasons.
- Where data was unavailable using the tool, Eden’s Gate worked out the average length of an episode using information sourced on Wikipedia. This information was then inserted into a formula to calculate the total watch time based on the total number of episodes across all seasons.
