Overindulgence in excess
A binge is a period of excessive indulgence—eating, drinking, spending, or consuming entertainment without restraint: a weekend binge, a Netflix binge.
The verb means to engage in such excess: I binged the entire series in two days.
Binge eating and binge drinking specifically describe consuming large amounts in short periods, often compulsively.
Binge-watch has become standard for consuming multiple episodes consecutively.
