binge-watched
Devoured episodes consecutively
Binge-watched is the past tense of binge-watch, meaning to watch multiple episodes of a television series in rapid succession: I binge-watched the entire season in one weekend.
The practice became common with streaming services that release full seasons at once, replacing the week-by-week anticipation of traditional broadcast television.
